Replacing Old Cracked Guttering and Fascias in Bulwell

Old cast and plastic guttering gives out in familiar ways: cracks along the length, joints that weep, brackets that have pulled away and downpipes that no longer meet the drain. Across Bulwell's terraces, 1930s semis and post-war estates, a lot of guttering is simply past its life. A full roofline replacement tidies the front of the house and removes the winter worry of overflowing water.

New gutters are only part of the picture. The fascia behind them, and the soffit below, take the same weather and often show the same age. Replacing them together makes sense, since the same access is used.

Swapping the old for new

The old guttering comes off, the fascia is checked for rot and the timber behind it is looked at. New uPVC gutters go on with proper brackets and outlets, set so that water runs to the downpipes. Downpipes are checked for blockages and connections to the drain at the same visit.

Soffits are renewed with vents to keep the roof space ventilated. Replacing the full roofline at the same time saves access costs, so it is worth considering if everything is tired.

Terraces and semis

On terraced streets the guttering often runs continuously along a row, so a leak at one joint can affect a neighbour's wall. Semis have shorter runs and are easier to deal with in one visit. Some terraces have shared eaves or boxed-in gutters, which call for a different approach, and we look at that before quoting.

Photos of the worst joints and any damp patches on the wall help, and you can send them by call or WhatsApp to Evans Roofing. We can then say whether a repair or a full roofline is more likely and quote.

Questions

Fascias, Soffits and Guttering in Bulwell: common questions

Why is my gutter overflowing in the rain?

It could be blocked, sagging or set at the wrong fall. A look at the run will show which, and it may only need clearing or a bracket adjustment. An older system that leaks at several joints is usually better replaced.

Do I need the fascias replaced as well as the gutters?

Not always. If the timber is sound, new gutters can be fixed straight on, but rotten boards need replacing first. If any boards are damp or soft, they need replacing before new gutters go on.
