Repairs
New joints, brackets refixed at the right fall, and outlets cleared.
A gutter that overflows onto the wall every time it rains will cause damp inside sooner or later. Most gutter problems are small: a blocked outlet, a joint that has gone, a bracket that has dropped. We fix those, or put in a new run if it is past saving.
Before replacing anything, we find out why the water is not going where it should.
A gutter is only half the system. The downpipe and where it empties matter just as much.
New joints, brackets refixed at the right fall, and outlets cleared.
A new run sized for the roof, with the fall set so water heads for the outlet, not the middle.
Checking the felt or membrane at the eaves reaches into the gutter, so water cannot run behind it.
If the felt at the bottom of the roof has rotted away, water runs behind even a brand new gutter. We check that first, so you are not paying for guttering that cannot fix the problem.
If it is a blockage, yes, and we will tell you if the gutter itself is fine. It is often the only thing wrong.
The fall may be wrong, the outlet may be too small for the roof, or the downpipe may be blocked further down. We find out which.
Yes, often at the same time as gutters, since everything is up at the same height.
Mostly uPVC for houses, in black, white or brown. Cast iron or aluminium on period homes where it matters.
