Overflowing Gutters: Causes and Fixes
Blocked outlets, sagging runs, the wrong fall and leaking joints: why gutters overflow and how to sort them before winter rain.
Rotting timber fascias, soffits and guttering stripped off and replaced with uPVC that needs no painting and will not rot.
Rotting fascias let water into the roofline and behind the masonry, the damage doesn't show until it's already done. I strip everything back, check the rafter feet and exposed timbers, and deal with anything that needs attention before the new uPVC goes on. The fascias are fixed properly, not clipped over the top of whatever was there before.
Guttering is fitted with the correct fall so it runs freely rather than sitting level and backing up in a downpour. Downpipes are connected and outlets checked clear. Once it's done there's nothing to paint, nothing to treat and nothing to worry about for years.
