Reliable rainwater drainage for Orpington properties.
Prestige Roofing & Building Solutions Ltd provides professional guttering in Orpington for homes affected by leaking joints, sagging sections, damaged brackets, overflowing outlets and defective downpipes.
Guttering collects rainwater from the roof and directs it towards outlets and downpipes. Although the components appear simple, the system depends on correct alignment, secure brackets and an appropriate fall towards the drainage point.
Orpington properties include bungalows, period houses, interwar homes, detached properties, semi-detached houses and newer developments. Roof sizes and shapes vary considerably, which means the rainwater system must suit the amount of water arriving from the roof slopes above it.
Larger roofs, valleys, extensions and several connected roof sections can send substantial volumes of water towards a limited number of outlets. Where the guttering is damaged, poorly aligned or restricted, water may overflow against brickwork, windows, roofline boards and lower roof sections.

Common guttering problems
Why gutters leak, overflow and begin to sag.
A leaking joint may be caused by movement, a damaged seal, poor alignment or distortion in the adjoining gutter sections. Repairing the connector alone may not be enough where the sections no longer meet correctly.
Sagging commonly develops where brackets have loosened, broken or been spaced too widely. Water can then collect in the low section instead of flowing towards the outlet. The additional weight can place further pressure on the brackets and gutter joints.
Overflowing may result from a blockage, but it can also indicate that the gutter fall is incorrect or the outlet cannot carry the volume of water reaching it. Valleys and larger roof slopes can direct concentrated flows into relatively short gutter runs.
Downpipes complete the system by carrying water from roof level towards the drainage point below. A restricted or disconnected downpipe can cause the outlet to back up, even where the horizontal guttering itself appears clear.
Water spilling repeatedly against the property may stain brickwork, affect external finishes and expose fascia boards or soffits to unnecessary moisture.

Repair or complete replacement
The right option depends on the extent of the damage.
Gutter repair or replacement
When a local gutter repair may be suitable.
Not every leaking gutter system needs complete replacement. A local repair may be suitable where the problem is limited to one joint, stop end, bracket, outlet or short section.
Repair can be less suitable where several joints leak, the guttering has become distorted or long sections have lost their correct fall. Repeatedly repairing separate points may not resolve a wider alignment problem.
Complete replacement allows the gutter sections, outlets, brackets and downpipes to be planned as one connected system. Correct support and alignment are essential because even new guttering may hold water if the fall towards the outlet is unsuitable.
The fascia board must also provide a sound surface for the gutter brackets. Where the roofline is damaged or deteriorated, replacing the guttering without considering the supporting board may leave the new system inadequately fixed.
Our guttering in Orpington service can be coordinated with fascia and soffit replacement in Orpington where the complete roofline needs renewal.
