There are several reasons as to why your gutters may be leaking. They could be blocked, causing water to overflow, or cracked, allowing water to seep out before reaching the downpipes. Alternatively, they might be sagged or bowed, so water gathers and overflows rather than flowing freely through the pipes. The best way to find out is with a professional inspection.

Well-installed gutters can last upwards of 10-25 years if they are well maintained. But after a few decades, even well maintained can become brittle/rotten and susceptible to leaks.

There are several reasons as to why you may need to replace them, from age and deterioration to an update in style or to upgrade them to more energy-efficient solutions. You may need to upgrade them if you notice any of these signs:

• Visible cracks or damage
• Water damage or leaks
• Peeling paint
• Discolouration
• Evidence of pests or small animals
• Roof has insufficient ventilation

While the modern materials used for soffits and fascias and virtually maintenance-free, we recommend cleaning your entire eaves trough system twice a year to prevent the harmful build-up of dirt, leaves and/or debris.

As clogged gutters can lead to water leaks, moisture damage and mould, we recommend a professional roof inspection twice a year to ensure that your roofing system is always performing as it should.
