Soffit & Fascia

In Edmonton, full soffit and fascia replacement runs roughly $14–$22 per linear foot installed. For a typical single-family home with ~200 linear feet of roof edge, the total is usually $2,800–$4,400 depending on access, profile, and removal of existing wood fascia.

Most installers, including IronWrap, quote them as one package because they share access and trim transitions. Replacing them separately is roughly 10–15% more expensive than doing both at once.

(1) Water damage from clogged gutters rotting wood fascia; (2) inadequate attic ventilation causing ice dams and roof failure; (3) pest entry — squirrels, birds, and wasps nesting in damaged soffit; (4) sagging or peeling vinyl from temperature cycles. Pre-finished aluminum soffit + steel fascia eliminates all four.

Yes — full-service exterior contractors like IronWrap install soffit, fascia, and eavestrough alongside the roof. It's the most efficient combination because the same crew, access, and lifts are already on site.

Not always — but it's the right time to do it. The roof crew is already on site with the right access, ladders, and matching trim, so the incremental cost is much smaller than coming back later.

Warning signs: brown water staining, sagging panels, visible nests, or chunks of insulation falling out. If you see any of those, the attic ventilation has likely already taken damage to the framing.

Aluminum, every time. Vinyl cracks in cold snaps and warps near vents. Pre-finished aluminum stays flat, doesn't fade, and lasts as long as the roof above it.

Often, yes — most ice damming is caused by inadequate attic ventilation, and bad soffit is usually the bottleneck. We calculate the intake area properly and balance it with ridge exhaust.
