Roof Water Management services in Nottingham

Water can be one of the most damaging elements to your roof and house if left unchecked. Good gutter placement and installation is therefore necessary to direct water to its desired location away from your house. Time and money spent for a proper installation can go a long way towards protecting your roof and property from puddling or water damage, so don’t neglect to plan for robust drainage placement around your roof.

The first step will always be to have a look at your existing gutters and inspect their condition. You’ll ideally want to go out in the rain to see how they handle the downpour and to identify any potential problems that may exist, such as leaks or areas of overflowing.

If you notice that the downpour is not being channelled correctly, you’ll have to decide whether you want to hire our roof gutter installer to perform the repairs or if you want to do it yourself. Quite a few simple repairs can be safely done yourself, but more serious issues will require an expert roof gutter installer.

Once you’ve had a thorough look at your current water management situation, you may determine that you’ll need either some repairs or a replacement if the troughs are aged or not functioning properly. Galvanised steel, tin, and aluminium troughs have a lifespan of about 20 years, so be sure to replace them as needed in order to prevent future drainage problems.

New or replacement steel or aluminium troughs aren’t the biggest expense and can be installed in about a weekend if you’re adamant about doing it yourself, or potentially less if you hire our specialist. For a small spend, you can save substantially by avoiding the risks of water damage in the future.

One big tip if you’re installing them yourself is to measure accurately and estimate how much you’ll need to purchase and to preassemble sections before climbing up your ladder. Be sure to have enough elbows on hand and to provide adequate downspouts where appropriate. Also, be sure to distance downspouts so that they flow away from the foundation and not puddle directly against the house.

In order to install them new, you’re going to need a cordless drill, extendable ladder, and a crimper. It’s commonly believed that roofing drip edge is also required if your shingles don’t extend out far enough. In fact, roofing drip edge should be used regardless. Screws, rivets, flashing, and sealant are all required as well and should be considered when estimating how much material you’ll require for the project.
