Envision Outdoor Living Products now offers the Deckfast Fascia System for use with its fascia/skirting boards. According to the manufacturer, fascia boards naturally expand and contract, which can lead to waviness as the vertically or horizontally installed fascia boards move against the fasteners. Deckfast addresses this issue with a solution the company says ensures a cleaner, streamlined look. The Deckfast Fascia System comprises a special Fascia Tool and color-coated Headcote stainless steel or epoxy-coated carbon steel Fascia Screws. The Fascia Tool has a pre-set countersink; pre-drilling with the tool creates an oversized hole that will allow the board to float on the screw to better accommodate expansion and contraction. Once the hole is predrilled, users can drive the Fascia Screw, which is color-matched specifically to all Envision composite decking colors. envisionoutdoorliving.com
