Drone-inspection capable

Non-intrusive roof surveys

Targeted gutter repair — joints, brackets, alignment and downpipes.

Symptoms & warning signs

  • A steady drip from one joint during rainfall
  • A section of gutter pulling away from the fascia
  • Water spilling at a single point rather than along the whole run
  • Downpipe blocked, with water backing up at the outlet
  • Cracked gutter sections after frost or ladder damage
  • Plants growing out of the gutter

Inspection & diagnosis

Every quote begins with an inspection. Where a roof is inaccessible, complex or storm-damaged, we can carry out a drone inspection to capture imagery and annotated findings before recommending works.

Freshly installed white uPVC fascias, soffits and black seamless guttering along the eaves of a British home.

Typical scope of work

  • Clearance of the run to establish whether the problem is blockage or defect
  • Re-sealing or replacement of failed joints, unions and seals
  • Re-bracketing and re-setting of falls where the run has sagged
  • Replacement of individual damaged gutter and downpipe sections
  • Clearance of blocked downpipes, offsets and outlet gullies
  • A water test to confirm the repair before we leave site

Timescale

Most gutter repairs are completed within a single visit of a few hours. Where sections need matching to an older or discontinued profile, we may need to source parts first.

Guarantee & aftercare

Repairs carry our written workmanship guarantee. If a run is failing in several places we will say that replacement is the better value option rather than repairing it joint by joint.

Project evidence

Every job is photographed before, during and after the work, so you can see what was found, what was done and what it looks like finished — including the parts of the roof you cannot see from the ground. Those photographs are shared with you and, with permission, may be used as a case study.

Before roof cleaning: a UK tiled roof heavily covered in moss with blocked, debris-filled guttering and stained fascia boards.
After roof cleaning: the same roof with moss removed from the tiles, guttering cleared and running freely, and fascias and soffits washed down.
