Peoria Roof Pros provides professional fascia & soffit in Peoria, IL for residential and commercial properties across the central Illinois River valley. Peoria's eaves come in two completely different kinds and they fail for opposite reasons. The 1900 to 1930 bluff houses have built-up boxed cornices in painted wood. The plateau subdivisions have aluminum or vinyl over a simple sub-fascia.
A boxed cornice is a small piece of carpentry, not a trim board. There is a lookout frame, a soffit panel, a fascia, a bed mold and often a crown, and each piece has a profile that was run for that house. When one part rots and somebody wraps the whole assembly in coil stock, the water keeps getting in and now nobody can see it doing it.
So on those houses we repair in kind. Rotten sections cut back to sound wood, new pieces milled to match the existing profile, primed on all six faces before they go up, and the paint film kept intact afterward. It costs more than a wrap and it is the only version that actually stops the rot, which is the entire point of the exercise. Paint is the maintenance item on those houses and always has been.
It is also the one place where we retrofit intake ventilation on the bluff stock, because a boxed cornice usually has none. While the soffit panel is open we cut baffled intake into it, which solves a ventilation problem and a rot problem in one trip and costs a fraction of doing them separately later. It solves a ventilation problem and a rot problem in one trip up the ladder.
Plateau eaves are a different job entirely. There the fascia is usually sound and the failure is at the gutter line, where spike-and-ferrule hangers have worked loose and let water behind the aluminum. We replace the sub-fascia where it is soft, re-wrap in .019 aluminum with a proper drip leg, and rehang on hidden hangers. Then we rehang the gutter on hidden hangers screwed into solid wood rather than into the wrap.
The one thing we will not do is cover rot. If a fascia is soft, wrapping it in aluminum hides a problem that will surface as a gutter on the lawn and a stained ceiling inside. We open it, show you photographs of what is behind it, and price the repair from what is actually there rather than from what could be guessed at from the driveway.
Our licensed and insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — ASTM D3161 Class F laminated shingles specified above the bluff rim and not below it, six fasteners per shingle where the standard schedule calls for four, high-wind starter strip cemented along the eaves and both rakes, hot-dipped galvanized drip edge screwed to the deck rather than hand-nailed, half-inch OSB re-decking laid over 1x6 board sheathing with skip gaps, 24-gauge standing seam panels roll-formed off site when a lot has no lay-out room — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve Peoria and nearby communities including East Peoria, Peoria Heights, West Peoria, Bartonville.

Materials, equipment and how we do fascia & soffit
The difference between fascia & soffit that lasts and fascia & soffit that gets redone in three years is almost always preparation and materials, not the finish you see on day one. We work with ASTM D3161 Class F laminated shingles specified above the bluff rim and not below it, six fasteners per shingle where the standard schedule calls for four, high-wind starter strip cemented along the eaves and both rakes, hot-dipped galvanized drip edge screwed to the deck rather than hand-nailed, spec them to the job instead of to the invoice, and write the material grades into the free estimate so you know exactly what you are buying.
Every Peoria job runs the same way: site walk and measurements, written scope and fixed price, protection of the surrounding area, then the work itself with a daily clean-up. Years of roofing work in the central Illinois River valley means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.

Why Peoria Chooses Peoria Roof Pros
- ✓We look up the elevation and lot grade at your address before the appointment, because on the Peoria bluff the ground around the house predicts the cost of the roof better than the roof does.
- ✓The fastening specification changes by exposure zone. Six nails per shingle and cemented starter at both rakes on the plateau rim, and the standard schedule down on the valley floor where that load never arrives.
- ✓Staging is a named line item. Where the debris trailer sits, where material lands, and how far it is hand-carried are on the first page of the bid rather than found on tear-off morning.
- ✓We refuse coatings over steep-slope shingles outright, and we refuse tile conversions with no structural engineer's letter naming the load.
The standards behind fascia & soffit
Quality here is not a matter of opinion — it is written down. The fascia & soffit work we do in Peoria follows published industry standards: NRCA publishes the Roofing Manual, the industry's reference for details and slope minimums, and Asphalt Roofing Manufacturers Association sets the shingle application and ventilation guidance the warranties reference. If a contractor cannot tell you which standard a detail comes from, that is worth asking about before you sign.
