Gloucestershire Concrete Gutter Replacement

If your house has finlock guttering installed then it’s one of only 70,000 in the whole of the UK to be built with this system in place. The reason why finlock gutters, which are commonly known as concrete gutters, were never installed in greater numbers is that that the faults they always develop can have a huge impact on the lives of people living with them.
These faults take the form of concrete gutter problems involving water ingress into the house in question.

When a concrete gutter fails in this way the water is able to attack interior walls and ceilings, leaving water marks, creating damp patches and encouraging mould to grow. As if the damage to the building wasn’t bad enough, damp conditions of this kind have the potential to damage the health of people living in the house. It’s little wonder that people suffering in this way are often desperate to source effective concrete gutter solutions.

The bad news is that the solution often suggested is anything but effective. It involves repairing or replacing the concrete gutter lining, which is intended to seal gaps where the concrete falls away externally.

Dealing with the lining will do nothing to stop the wider problem of a failing concrete gutter, however, and will actually make things even worse. The good news is that the experts at Adeft know exactly what will deal with the issue of a failing concrete gutter, and it’s removing the gutter completely and installing a uPVC replacement.
