Guttering in Kew: inter-war and post-war mix with clay tile and concrete tile side by side. Kew's 1930s cast iron guttering on the inter-war properties is worth maintaining where structurally sound — the material outlasts UPVC when correctly maintained. Post-war UPVC is typically at replacement age.

“Fall angle confirmed correct with a level before any bracket was fixed. That's how it should be done.”
“They found the fascia was soft behind one bracket. Included the fascia section in the quote upfront.”
“Marine-grade sealant on all joints. Previous guttering had failed at joints within 8 years.”
Kew's Portland Street, Eastbourne Road and Leyland Road carry 1930s semi-detached and detached properties alongside post-war development. The 1930s stock — the better examples carrying original clay peg tile — is at the age where ridge mortar and lead valleys need professional attention for the first time. Post-war concrete tile stock is entering the nail sickness risk window.
The most common cause of overflowing gutters in Southport is incorrect fall — the gutter is not sloping sufficiently toward the outlet. We confirm fall angle at every survey before recommending replacement. A gutter in otherwise good condition that overflows due to fall error needs bracket repositioning, not full replacement.
All UPVC guttering installation in Southport uses marine-grade sealant at every joint and bracket fixing. Standard sealant compound stiffens and cracks in coastal humidity conditions significantly faster than the manufacturer's stated service life. Marine-grade sealant provides a measurably longer joint life in the PR8 and PR9 coastal zone.
We check fascia board condition at every guttering installation — a new gutter fixed to a rotten fascia pulls away within months. Where the fascia is soft we include a replacement quote as a separate line item in the same visit. Call 01704 620 427 for a free guttering survey.
Guttering replacement on a standard semi-detached property is typically completed in one day. We work from scaffold or tower as required — we do not work from ladders on two-storey properties.

All work is carried out by our own employed team — we do not subcontract. Every operative working on your property has been trained and assessed by us. This matters because it is what backs the 10-year written workmanship guarantee.
