Summit Cladding were called to a home in Wanstead, East London to repair and improve the front exterior of a home. We removed all the old timbers and replaced them with a Eurocell OG Fascia Board. The old wooden finule was completely rotten so we had it copied to the exact specifications but in Hardwood and painted it white to match the ogiginal 1920’s woodwork that the property featured.
