Putting a Gutter Right

The specialist first clears the affected run and checks the bracket spacing and fascia. New brackets are set out to a measured slope so water runs to the downpipe instead of pooling. Cracked lengths are cut out and replaced with new sections in the same profile. Finally, water is run along the gutter to prove the repair.

For a sagging run, the fitter may replace failed brackets and reset the fall toward the outlet. A cracked length may need a new section compatible with the existing profile.

Repair or Replace?

A repair is usually the sensible choice when the rest of the gutter is in good condition. If the plastic has become brittle, several joints are failing and the profile is no longer made, replacing the worst runs may cost less over time. Ask your specialist to price both so you can compare.

How Much Do Gutter Repairs Cost in Scalloway?
