gutter

Guys I have just moved to a new place and was about to start painting and sealing the gutters and down pipes. The house has a cast rainwater/waste water down pipe (not soil pipe) that has had a section replaced for pvc. The section is one up from the ground. Is this alright? Should it all be...

Hi Guys, I just wanted your opinion on the type of guttering I should have on my old extension in the garden. My problem is as followed: Sadly the current guttering has not been fitted on properly and seems too small not holding the water in and falls out onto the garden. Also taking the...

My chalet bungalow suffers badly from overflowing gutter corners during cloud bursts, due to rain flowing down the valleys. The guttering is conventional semi-circular plastic which has been reasonably well laid and I see little chance of improving this. Is anyone aware of an easy solution to...

Hello, Can anyone tell me if a clogged up gutter can cause an internal leak? The gutter between the roof tiles and brick Part of my house has been backed up with moss and other debris for a while, and today a leak has begun in the kitchen. I checked the area above the leak and found no sign of...

Hi, I'm hoping to have a single storey side return extension built on our terraced house. We hope to build along the party wall line but I'm struggling to figure out how the guttering will work without hanging over our neighbours land. I assume a box gutter on top of the wall may be a solution...

Hello I badly need an expert advice. My house has an inside concrete gutter which runs across our bedroom. We found out that the gutter has small space so when it's raining really hard, it easily fills then eventually leaks through our ceiling down to our bedroom walls and floors. The inside...

Hi there, This is my first post on the forum, nice to meet you all! I have just bought my first house, apart from all the sockets falling off the walls it all seemed okay until Monday. It rained overnight and I woke up to a large damp patch around my bedroom window. It hasn't rained since...

I'm having quite regular overflowing of my gutters onto the front of my house (picture on the left) and my bay window (last night it was like Niagara falls!) and I think the main reasons is that there are 5 Terrence houses 30 meters long (about 215²m) running into my 1 x 50mm (or 68mm?)...

Hi Not sure if anyone on here can help but we need a roofer to do several repairs to our 1912 mid terrace with a valley. It had a new roof put in roughly 16 years ago with a Velux window. The main problems are: a long horizontal damp patch along the landing ceiling that separates the landing...

My house is mid-terrace. There are gutter downpipes every two houses, so 1 downpipe is shared by two houses. My rear garden slopes towards the house and slightly to the left where the downpipe joins the gully. So it looks like the slope is on purpose or in any case useful at directing rain water...
