Install Soffit Panels

What happens here

With the soffit framing complete, the soffit panels can now be installed. The video shows workers installing solid-looking panels, which could be wood, vinyl, or aluminum. If using vinyl or aluminum soffit, J-channels or F-channels are typically installed along the wall and sometimes along the fascia to receive the edges of the soffit panels. The panels are then cut to length, inserted into the channels, and fastened to the soffit lookouts. Ensure any ventilation requirements for the attic are met by using perforated soffit panels where necessary. Work systematically across the eaves, ensuring each panel is fully seated and securely fastened.

Goal: Cover the underside of the eaves to complete the exterior trim
