Guttering and Downpipes

Guttering and downpipes are essential for managing rainwater, efficiently channelling it away from the roofs and walls of your home. Having durable, properly fitted guttering protects your home from water damage while enhancing its appearance.

Over time, leaky guttering can cause costly damage to everything from your roof to your foundations. Replacing older guttering with modern uPVC refreshes the look of your home and could save you money in the long run.

What is Guttering?

Guttering is the system of channels and pipes that collect rainwater from the roof of a building, directing it safely away into drains. The guttering is attached to the building via fascia boards, running along the eaves to catch water as it runs off the roof. The rainwater is then channelled down in downpipes before being deposited into ground drains.

This keeps the rainwater from damaging the walls and foundations of a building, minimising leakage and erosion.

Benefits of Replacing Your Guttering

    Bring a fresh and updated look to your home with new uPVC guttering, with options for different shapes and colours for an attractive detail. Older guttering that’s faded or damaged may not function properly, as well as negatively impact the look of a property.

  2. Gutter Protection System

    We offer two types of gutter protection depending on your gutter type. Either a mesh that sits over the top, or a 'hedgehog brush', that helps keep your new guttering free from leaves and debris.

  3. Recycle Rainwater

    Add a water butt to your downpipes to collect and recycle rainwater, perfect for watering the garden. Our water butts have a 200 litre capacity and can be directly plumbed into our uPVC downpipes.

Signs Your Guttering Needs Replacing

Your gutters go through a lot over time, transporting gallons of rainwater and withstanding gales. Over time, gutters can get clogged, become loose and leak. Here are the signs that your gutters might need replacing.

Get a Price
Cracks, gaps, and holes

One of the most obvious signs that your guttering needs replacing is visible damage, such as cracks, sagging, or gaps between sections. Guttering coming away from the side of the house could also be a sign that your fascia boards also need replacing.

Leaks and overflowing

Leaking or overflowing sections of guttering can often be caused by a build-up of leaves or debris, but it can also be a sign of damage or that the system can’t handle the amount of rainwater. Water cascading down the walls during heavy rain can lead to more serious problems.

Damp problems

Check your exterior walls for discolouration or damp patches, as these can be caused by leaking or overflowing guttering. If the issue is neglected, the moisture can penetrate the interior of your home and cause mould and other problems.

Pooling or erosion on the ground

Pools of standing water around the base of your walls could mean your guttering or drains aren’t channelling rainwater away efficiently. This can lead to soil erosion and damp problems and could even start affecting the foundations of your home.

Guttering FAQs

Your questions on guttering and downpipes, answered by us.

How much does guttering replacement cost in the UK?

The cost of replacing your guttering will depend on the size of your home and its roofline, as well as the style of guttering you choose. To get an accurate no-obligation quote for your project, get in touch with Anglian today.

Which is better - uPVC, aluminium, or cast-iron guttering?

The material you choose for your guttering will depend on your budget and your taste, as well as the style of your home. uPVC guttering usually represents the most cost-effective option, providing a durable and attractive look with a choice of gutter profiles and colours. Aluminium can provide a more contemporary look for modern homes, while cast-iron is usually more suitable for period properties, though also much more expensive.

How long does uPVC guttering last?

Well-designed and professionally installed uPVC guttering should last upwards of 20 years, so long as it's maintained and kept clear of debris. At Anglian, our uPVC guttering comes with a 10-year guarantee as standard.

Can guttering be repaired, or does it need to be fully replaced?

Minor guttering problems can often be repaired, but ongoing issues or more extensive problems can usually only be solved with a full replacement.

Do I need to replace my fascias and soffits at the same time as my guttering?

Yes, we always recommend replacing guttering, fascias, and soffits together to ensure your home is fully protected and won’t require more repairs or replacements in the near future. Anglian only offers a full replacement service to ensure all areas of the roofline are completely replaced and fully protected with new guttering, fascias and soffits.

What size guttering do I need for my home?

Different properties may need different sizes or styles of guttering. Most UK homes use 114mm width guttering, though 112mm is also used. Roofs with steeper pitches may also need guttering with a higher capacity to deal with faster rainwater flow. We perform a full survey of your current guttering when you get a free, no-obligation quoteForm from Anglian, so we can provide you with the right options for size and style.

Do I need planning permission to replace my guttering?

For most properties, planning permission won’t be required for replacing your guttering. If your home is a listed building or in a protected area, you will likely need to seek approval and meet certain regulations before replacing any guttering.

How do I maintain my guttering and keep it working properly?

The most important thing for keeping your guttering working properly is to keep it free from debris and blockages. This becomes more of a problem in the autumn when trees are shedding their leaves. The easiest way to keep your gutters clear and flowing is to use something like our Gutterguard protection system. You should also occasionally check your guttering for signs of leakage and other problems.
