Damaged Gutters
Damaged gutters can lead to big issues down the line. Persistent leaks can funnel water onto your home’s brickwork, which is a common cause of penetrating damp.
Gutter damage is especially common when cracks appear, and after bad weather; high winds and storms can cause gutters to come loose and leak when it rains.
What causes damage to guttering?
Damaged gutters can occur for many reasons.
- PVC guttering can't expand or contract with extreme weather, and it can lose its shape.
- Overflowing gutters. Because of weight gain, joints can become loose and bracket fixings weaken.
- uPVC guttering can become brittle from excessive ultraviolet light exposure. This is the same as extra weight.
- Cast iron gutters can rust if the paint is removed or scratched. Untreated fixings could fail, and holes could open if left untreated.
If you notice any damage to your guttering system, or believe you need your guttering replaced, speak to us, your local expert, as soon as possible. It is best to sort any issues quickly to avoid any further damage to your property.
If homeowners live in a terraced or semi-detached house and the gutter problem affects, or is affected by, a neighbour’s gutters, make sure the homeowner speaks to the neighbours to agree on the gutter work before you hire us.
A Leaking Gutter and Leaking Gutter Joints
The problem with a leaky gutter is the longer you leave it, the worse your problem gets. The dripping of rainwater against your walls will cause damp and mould in your home. Having your gutter repaired as soon as possible can save you a lot of money in the future.
Most common problems that cause a Leaking Gutter & Gutter Joint
Misaligned guttering that prevents water from draining to the nearest outlet will inevitably cause problems. This is usually a direct result of incorrectly aligned gutter brackets, joints, outlets, and/or gutter joints. Joints that have not been fixed firmly to the fascia boards, which otherwise allows them to sag.
Leaking gutters is usually down to it missing the Rubber Seal. This is the most common cause, the gutter length has simply been installed with this missing, and simply replacing it will resolve the problem. If you can’t find a replacement seal, sometimes just some gutter sealant will be enough to seal it.
You can use roof and gutter sealant to repair bigger leaks in metal guttering or a damaged union piece in plastic guttering. But one of our team can suggest the best guttering repairs job for your situation.
