Service Overview

Gutters & Fascias — explained properly.

What it is

Gutter and fascia work covers everything from a one-off blocked-gutter clear to full replacement of the rainwater goods (gutters, downpipes, fascias, soffits and bargeboards) around your home. Done right, the system silently moves thousands of litres of water away from your walls and foundations for 30+ years.

Who it's for

Owners of any home with timber fascias older than 15 years, anyone hearing water spilling over the edge of a gutter in heavy rain, and landlords renewing rental properties between tenancies. Commercial properties with cast-iron systems we replace like-for-like or upgrade to powder-coated aluminium.

When you need it

When you see daylight between the gutter and the fascia, when soffits are flaking and pigeon-pecked, when water tracks down the brickwork in a visible green or black stain, when the back of the gutter is rotting the rafter feet, or when your roofline simply looks tired from the street.

Why professional matters

A failing gutter does not just look untidy — it accelerates the failure of every component it touches. Saturated brickwork, rotten rafter ends, damp internal walls, blown render and frost-cracked masonry all begin with one undersized or blocked downpipe. Professional installation with the right fall, brackets every 800mm, and matched downpipes is the cheapest insurance you can buy.

Cost of Doing Nothing

What happens if you leave it?

Most homeowners only look up at their gutters when water is already cascading down a window. By then, the hidden damage is well underway.

The risks

  • Saturated brickwork transmits damp internally — repointing and re-plastering one wall is a significant remedial cost.
  • Rotted rafter feet require eaves rebuilding, slate or tile removal and structural timber replacement per elevation.
  • Blocked downpipes back-flood into the loft via the eaves — a leading cause of attic mould.
  • Bird nests and moss in gutters add 80kg+ of weight on brackets designed for water only — gutters tear off in the first heavy snow.
  • Failed fascias let bats, squirrels, wasps and rats into the roof void.

Common mistakes

  • Capping over rotten timber fascia with uPVC 'wrap-over' boards — traps the rot and accelerates it.
  • Mixing modern uPVC gutter on Victorian half-round cast-iron — the joints never seal properly.
  • DIY clearing from a ladder propped against the gutter itself — bends the bracket and starts the next leak.
  • Buying the cheapest gutter on the shelf — wall thickness varies hugely and budget guttering sags within five winters.

Our Process

A simple, predictable system — start to finish.

  1. 01

    Step 1 — Site survey & measure-up

    Free, no-obligation visit. We measure every run, photograph existing brackets and downpipe positions, and confirm colour, profile and material with you.

  2. 02

    Step 2 — Written fixed-price quote

    Itemised by elevation. Materials, labour, waste removal and scaffolding (where needed) all included — never an 'extras' invoice on completion.

  3. 03

    Step 3 — Safe access set-up

    Eaves-height work platforms or scaffold towers rather than ladders wherever possible. Driveway, planting and patios protected with boards and sheets.

  4. 04

    Step 4 — Strip, inspect & install

    Old timber and rainwater goods stripped down. Rafter feet inspected — any rot cut out and spliced before new fascia goes on. Brackets every 800mm, correct fall to outlets.

  5. 05

    Step 5 — Test, clean & guarantee

    System hose-tested for fall and joint integrity. Site brushed clean, all waste removed. 10-year written guarantee covering materials and labour handed over with photos.

The Benefits

What you actually get when we are done.

Done in one day

Typical 3-bed semi: full strip and replace of fascias, soffits and guttering completed in a single 8-hour visit.

Maintenance-free for decades

Modern uPVC needs nothing more than an annual wipe-down — no painting, no rot, no woodworm.

Protects your home's biggest assets

Brickwork, rafters, internal plaster and decoration — all defended for the cost of a kitchen appliance.

Choice of colour & profile

White, black, anthracite grey, rosewood or light/dark woodgrain. Square, half-round or ogee profiles to match the era of your home.

Bigger downpipes where you need them

We size to roof area, not 'one size fits all' — north-facing slopes and Worcestershire's intense summer storms need 110mm downpipes, not 68mm.

Single-trade accountability

Same crew strips, installs and guarantees the system — no finger-pointing between trades if anything ever needs attention.

Specialist Detail

Materials, methods and the nuances that matter.

Rainwater goods are the most outwardly visible part of any roof line. The right choice depends on the era of your home, the roof area being drained, and how exposed your elevations are to driven rain.

Materials we use

uPVC

Standard for 95% of UK homes. We use 11mm-thick wall uPVC (not the 7–8mm budget stuff sold in DIY sheds), with co-extruded UV-stable colour through the section — no fade for 25+ years.

Aluminium seamless gutter

For long unbroken runs on commercial and high-end residential. Rolled on-site to the exact length, no joints to leak, 30-year powder coat warranty.

Cast iron & cast-iron-effect uPVC

For listed and conservation properties in Worcester's historic core. We supply genuine Hargreaves cast iron or convincing cast-iron-effect uPVC at a fraction of the cost.

Lead-effect uPVC bays

Square downpipes with leaded hopper heads for character properties — combines period look with modern maintenance-free performance.

Methods we follow

Fascia over-board (capping)

Only acceptable when underlying timber is sound. We probe-test every metre with a moisture meter — if reading exceeds 18%, the timber comes off, not gets wrapped.

Full strip & replace

Old fascia, soffit, gutters, and any rotten rafter feet removed. New 22mm uPVC fascia mechanically fixed to sound timber, vented soffit installed for loft airflow compliance with Building Regulations Part F.

Seamless aluminium gutter

Rolled to length on-site from coil. Internal brackets every 600mm for snow-load resistance.

  • Single-section gutter repair
  • Full gutter replacement
  • Fascia & soffit replacement
  • Bargeboard replacement (gable ends)

When it applies

  • Overflowing gutters in heavy rain

  • Birds nesting in the roof void

  • Cosmetic refresh before selling the property

Residential vs Commercial

Commercial properties typically demand larger 125mm or 150mm half-round systems with 110mm downpipes, often in powder-coated aluminium for longevity and corporate colour matching. We handle the lot — including out-of-hours installation on retail units in Worcester city centre.
