"The cost will depend on the length and condition of the existing barge boards, as well as access. As a rough guide, replacing rotten timber barge boards with uPVC would typically be around £50–£90 per metre, including labour and materials. For a more accurate price, we’d need to inspect the property and measure the areas involved."
