    You don't . Not structurally anyway, fascia is there just to trim the roof edge and hold the gutters up. It should not be used to hang pot plants, shade cloth, bamboo blinds etc etc. it should definitely not be used to support a pergola.

    You have to have timber behind it
    If at first you don't succeed, give something else a go. Life is far too short to waste time trying.

    You take the soffit out (or roof tiles off) and bolt pergola brackets to the end of the rafters. You drill and slot the facia to put the bracket in.....all after the engineer has looked at the windage/ drainage etc and oKed it.... which is why most are not done this way ..but thats one of the proper ways.


    And to my knowledge thats the first time Gumby has been called a noggin.

    The soffit is the underside of the eves, not the roof tile, did u learn this diy ladies night at bunnings?

    DanM, I think squizzy meant you can either take the soffit out from underneath, or take the roof tiles of from above to fit the brackets.
    Have a nice day - Cheers
