TL;DR
Fascia wrap is the practice of covering the wood fascia board with custom-bent aluminum coil stock, brake-formed on site to the board's profile and nailed with matching trim nails, eliminating the paint-and-rot maintenance cycle. Siding crews bend each length on a portable brake, lapping joints away from the prevailing view and hemming exposed edges for stiffness.
What it means
Fascia wrap is the practice of covering the wood fascia board with custom-bent aluminum coil stock, brake-formed on site to the board's profile and nailed with matching trim nails, eliminating the paint-and-rot maintenance cycle. Siding crews bend each length on a portable brake, lapping joints away from the prevailing view and hemming exposed edges for stiffness. Done poorly — without venting paths or over wet wood — it can seal moisture against the board and hide rot until the gutter lets go.
