It's got a crack in the top flat surface that butts up against the siding and water coming off the roof is seeping through the crack. I want to replace it instead of caulking the crack. Thanks in advance. ![]() _____________ "I enter a swamp as a sacred place—a sanctum sanctorum. There is the strength—the marrow of Nature." - Henry David Thoreau | ||

Vinyl fascia board?? May be hard to match exact color depending on age. Home Depot carries this stuff. | |||

Smooth lined fascia cover, looks to be 8" (actual 7-1/4"). Also available in 10" (9-1/4" actual) if my eyeballs are wrong. You can get it in aluminum, too. | |||

Thanks for the answer. I am still not finding it. I am finding fascia cover but none with this cross section: ![]() _____________ "I enter a swamp as a sacred place—a sanctum sanctorum. There is the strength—the marrow of Nature." - Henry David Thoreau | |||

I am not one for diagrams. I suspect you will need to cut the piece to size. | |||

Are you sure it is vinyl? It looks like it may be "custom" bent aluminum fascia trim. | |||

I'll have to take another look. I was certain it was vinyl but it may, indeed, be aluminum. _____________ "I enter a swamp as a sacred place—a sanctum sanctorum. There is the strength—the marrow of Nature." - Henry David Thoreau | |||

It does look to be the vinyl fascia to me. It appears to be the same as the pieces on the rake mold. You will probably have to locate those from a vinyl supplier which will deal in the more specialty trim pieces. Home Depot & Lowes are only going to have very basic items. Another option would be to find someone who can cover that piece with aluminum. Anyone who installs vinyl siding should have a brake, and should be able to make it for you. | |||

Thanks. Then I will caulk it until I get it replaced. _____________ "I enter a swamp as a sacred place—a sanctum sanctorum. There is the strength—the marrow of Nature." - Henry David Thoreau | |||

Looks to be vinyl, as it has drainage holes. | |||

Checked. Definitely vinyl. _____________ "I enter a swamp as a sacred place—a sanctum sanctorum. There is the strength—the marrow of Nature." - Henry David Thoreau | |||

Ok. Was it heated and bent to make the profile? It could be a supply house item or a custom order item. Do you know who built the house or did the work? There may be a name brand and part number on the back side of the broken piece that you can look up too. | |||

Do not use calk. Use a strip of good tape that matches the color of the vinyl | |||
