Guttering, Fascias & Soffits in Easton
Clearing, repairing and replacing gutters, downpipes, fascias and soffits on Easton’s terraces, from shared eaves runs to the outlet behind a parapet.
Roofline work we take on
Gutter clearing
Leaves, moss and silt cleared from gutters, outlets and the top of downpipes, with a flow test afterwards.
Leaking joints and sagging runs
Re-sealing or replacing joints, and re-fixing brackets so the run falls to the outlet instead of holding water.
New gutters and downpipes
uPVC in standard or deep-flow profiles, or cast-iron-style systems where they suit the street.
Fascias and soffits
Rotten timber fascias replaced in uPVC or timber, with ventilation at the eaves where the roof needs it.
Parapet outlets and hoppers
On parapet-fronted houses the outlet through the wall and the hopper below are where blockages back up. We clear and re-make them.
Shared runs
Terraces often share a continuous gutter line. We can replace your section and joint it neatly to next door’s.
Gutters and Easton’s weather
The Met Office long-term average for Filton, the nearest long-running station, is about 819mm of rain a year on roughly 136 days, with most of it in autumn and winter when south-westerly weather comes through. A gutter that overflows onto a Pennant stone wall soaks the stone and the mortar joints, and the damp shows up inside weeks later.
On streets with no front gardens, an overflowing gutter also drops water straight onto the pavement at your door. Most of the gutter work we do in Easton is simple maintenance done before it becomes a damp problem.
Guttering questions
How often should gutters be cleared?
At least once a year, after leaf fall. Houses near the big trees around Greenbank Cemetery, St George Park or Eastville Park often need it more.
Can you match cast iron gutters?
We can repair existing cast iron, or fit cast iron or cast-iron-style replacements. On listed buildings, like for like usually matters.
My downpipe goes into a drain that is blocked. Can you fix that?
We clear the gutter and downpipe. Below-ground drains are a drainage engineer’s job, and we will tell you if that is where the problem is.
