Fascia Installation FAQs
A soffit is the horizontal, or occasionally vertical, the underside of an element. In architecture, a soffit is the underside of a cornice, arch, beam, or lintel. Plaster soffits were used in housing construction from the late 1940s until the mid-1960s. A soffit may also be referred to as an eave.
In order to install a soffit, you will need:
-A step ladder
-A measuring tape

-Crown molding (in the same style as the rest of your home)
-Construction adhesive
-Finishing nails
-Caulking
