There's 2 like that at the front TAf, I have spoken to several builders and they all said the fascia should have been double pinned. He completely denies that he didn't fit incorrectly as his work complied with FENSA regulations, he claims it was all down to the gale, an act of God. The pins he used were only 40mm (usually used for soffits) and only one row about an inch from the top. Therefore it didn't take much for the wind get under it and blow it off. I await reply from Citizens Advice Bureau.
