Guttering suited to the way your property needs to drain
uPVC for practical everyday use
uPVC gutters provide a popular option for managing rainwater around domestic properties, with a practical finish and straightforward maintenance.
Metal for a different roofline finish
Metal guttering can provide a robust alternative where its appearance and characteristics suit the property and existing roofline.
Plastic for simple replacement
Plastic guttering offers another practical option when sections have deteriorated or an existing system needs replacing.
Good guttering starts with proper water flow
Guttering needs to do more than look neat along the edge of a roof. Falls, joints, outlets and downpipes all affect whether rainwater moves away from the building as intended. Poor alignment or defective sections can result in overflow, leaks and water collecting where it should not. D Wood Property Maintenance can assess the existing system and identify whether cleaning, repair, replacement or adjustment is required.
Repair or replace the parts that are causing the problem
A leaking gutter does not necessarily mean the entire system has reached the end of its life. A damaged section, failed joint or alignment issue may be responsible for the problem. We assess the condition of the guttering and wider roofline before recommending the appropriate work, whether that means addressing a local defect or replacing more of the system.
Frequently asked questions
What types of guttering do you work with?
We work with different guttering options, including uPVC, metal and plastic gutters. The appropriate choice depends on the property, existing roofline and the requirements of the installation.
Does leaking guttering always need to be replaced?
No. Leaks can result from damaged sections, defective joints, poor alignment or other localised issues. We assess the cause before advising whether repair or replacement is appropriate.
Why do gutters need the correct fall?
A suitable fall allows rainwater to move towards the outlets rather than sitting in the gutter. If the alignment is incorrect, water can collect or overflow and potentially cause problems around the roofline.
