Spouting and gutters

Leaking, sagging or overflowing spouting replaced or repaired by a local roofer, with the downpipes and fall done properly.

Free for homeowners. One roofer, chosen for your area and this job.

Spouting that overflows or leaks at the joins sends water down the cladding and into the foundations, and in winter it can mean a wet wall inside. It is one of the cheapest things to fix and one of the most expensive to ignore.

Tell us what is happening and where. One roofer in your area who installs and repairs spouting gets your enquiry and calls you to look at it.

Signs you need this

  • Water pouring over the edge in heavy rain
  • Sagging sections, pulled brackets or visible gaps at joins
  • Rust, holes or spouting that has been patched before
  • Water pooling at the base of a wall or around the foundations

What the roofer will do

  1. Check the fall, the joins, the brackets and the downpipe outlets
  2. Repair sections, or quote a replacement in a profile and material that suits the house
  3. Clear and check downpipes so the water actually gets to the drain

How it works with us

  1. You tell us the job. Where the house is, what you have noticed, how urgent it is, and a photo if it is safe to take one.
  2. A person checks it. Someone on our team reads every enquiry. We are not a form that forwards itself.
  3. One roofer gets it. A roofer who works in your area and does this kind of job. Only one, so you are not fielding ten calls.
  4. They contact you. Usually within a working day, to talk through the job and arrange a look.

Questions people ask

Can spouting be repaired or does it all need replacing?

Individual joins and brackets can be repaired. When the spouting is rusted, sagging in several places or has been patched repeatedly, a full run is usually cheaper over time.

What materials are available?

Coloured steel, aluminium, copper and PVC are all common in New Zealand. The roofer will suggest what matches the roof and the budget.

Do you clean gutters?

Some roofers do as part of a maintenance visit. Mention it in the enquiry and the roofer will tell you.
