New uPVC Gutters — Boldon

Every "damp on the outside wall" job in Boldon starts with the gutters. If they overflow, the wall is wet, and no amount of internal decoration fixes it. New gutters, sized right and set at the right fall, is the actual fix. We're regularly on roofs close to the A19, through West Boldon and East Boldon.

  • Brackets set at 800mm centres, not the 1200mm many chancers use
  • Correct fall to outlet (1:600 minimum) — no ponding, no overflow
  • Hoppers to receive downpipes from bays and dormers, not just T-junctions
  • 112mm half-round or square-line as standard; 150mm on commercial
  • All new fascia-to-gutter joints sealed with EPDM, not silicone
  • Downpipes clipped every 1.8m — no wobbling in a gale

Cast-iron vs uPVC vs aluminium

Original cast-iron is repairable if worth saving. uPVC cast-effect gives the look for a fifth of the price and zero maintenance. Aluminium seamless is a step up in longevity and price — worth it on large properties with long runs where every joint is a potential leak. Slightly inland from the coast — wind-driven rain on west-facing slopes is the dominant local issue. Heavier autumn rain events mean we tend to spec 112mm systems as standard on Boldon homes rather than the older 100mm.

Downpipes to what?

Half the older gutters in some streets discharge into gullies that have collapsed underground. We CCTV-check on request if damp is showing — no point putting new gutter onto a broken drain.

Gutter replacement in Boldon — FAQs

How long does a full gutter renewal take?+

Standard semi: one day. Detached with hips and bay: a day and a half. Terrace with rear alley access: one day; front-only if scaffold is needed can be two.

Will you replace the downpipes too?+

Yes, we quote them together — replacing gutter and leaving 30-year-old brittle downpipes is false economy.
