Guttering repairs are often overlooked until they show obvious signs of neglect. The first thing a homeowner notices about a gutter problem is water pouring over the gutter. Most often creating a noise while they’re trying to sleep, or bestowing unto them a wet head as they leave their house. The very first thing to check at this stage is that the gutter outlets aren’t blocked. This can be done by inspecting the junctions where the downpipes meet the gutter and checking for plants, balls, mud and other such things stopping the water from draining away. Next check for dirt in the guttering. If you have a lot of moss or dirt, or some roof mortar blocking the water flow, clean it out and test the gutter with water. If that’s all fine but the water still refuses to go away check the pipes aren’t blocked.
Probably the most common guttering repair is to replace a plastic leaking gutter joint, often called a gutter union in the trade. The joints on a good quality guttering, depending on shape, should last anywhere from 5 to 20 years+ without dripping, but when they do, it is better to replace them with a matching joint rather than mess about with repairs if possible. Once the guttering repairs are complete we carry out a water test to ensure flow rate is adequate and that the down pipes are working efficiently. Our guttering repairs are second to none, and we will make sure that your work is done in a timely manner, and to the level of quality that you would expect.
