Guttering East Kilbride

Roofline Glasgow provide a gutter replacement service to the East Kilbride area.

Look after your gutters – they do an important job!

No matter what type of guttering you have that it will need to be maintained on a regular basis. Regular maintenance will reap dividends but what can you do to keep your gutters in tip top condition?

Remove the build up of debris

This is a quick and simple job that many people can do themselves but by doing so, you can save yourself a lot of possible expensive damage.

Most guttering problems for customers come from blockages of dead leaves, bits of rubbish etc. but this does involve climbing up a ladder. If you are not keen on heights or don’t feel this is something you can do, many guttering East Kilbride customers have contacted Roofline Glasgow for help, especially if the blockage has managed to move down the drain pipe.

Many blockages are wedged into a down pipe by the sheer force of rainwater but the issue of course in this circumstance is that it is difficult to see – and even more difficult to unblock!

Roofline Glasgow is a company that has experience of maintaining and replacing guttering for customers. Many people think that it will be an expensive service to have guttering maintained or replace, but with Roofline Glasgow you will be surprised at how competitive their prices are.

Sagging gutters?

You need to get these sorted as soon as possible. Sagging gutters suggest that there is a substantial blockage and the weight of it, as well as the accumulating rainwater mean that the gutter is sagging underneath the weight. A blocked and sagging gutter will lead to an overflow of rain water which, over time can cause damp in the interior of your property as well as unsightly staining on the outside of your home.

However, if the gutter is sagging in one particular spot this may be the result of the screws in the gutter fitting not being fitted correctly to the wall. If this is the case, they may need replacing.

If you do replace the bracket, then don’t forget that the gutter needs to have a slight angle favouring a downward slope toward the drain pipe to aid the flow of water away from the house.

Cracked or leaking gutters

Leaking gutters, many guttering customers find, can be temporarily fixed with tape and other materials. However, as with all home maintenance issues, this is only a temporary, short term fix and the gutter will eventually need replacing.

What about cast iron guttering?

Many guttering customers still have cast iron gutters on their period properties and can be incredibly durable, providing they are regularly maintained with cleaning as well as regular painting.
