Cast Iron Gutter Repairs in Crawley, Horsham and Locations in Surrey, Sussex and the South of England

UPVC gutters have become the most popular choice for roofline systems and fit in especially well with modern properties. Those living in period buildings in Crawley, Horsham and the surrounding Surrey and Sussex areas may already have metal guttering in place, and they will want to maintain the original appearance of their homes by having aluminium or cast iron repaired. Cast iron gutter repairs take hold better than repairs to UPVC. Because UPVC has a much lower price point, it is usually more cost-effective to simply replace it.

Zac’s Gutters is a gutter repair and gutter replacement specialist, established in 2011, with close to 15 years of combined experience in its team.

If you have noticed an issue with your guttering or with other components in the roofline, like the fascias or soffits, we encourage a fast response. The sooner you book in with Zac’s Gutters for cast iron gutter repairs and have the required work undertaken, the less likelihood there is of any further damage.

We also specialise in the field of concrete gutter replacement.


Aluminium Gutters

Zac’s Gutters can undertake seamless aluminium gutter repairs which have no joints and pose no risks with leaks or water pooling. We use quality gutters, linings and downpipes, producing bespoke workmanship that will provide a home with lasting protection from anything the UK weather has to throw at it.

Our aluminium systems only connect at the corners to make them stronger and leak-free. Guttering lengths come in a choice of powder-coated finishes.


Cast Iron Gutters

Cast iron is commonly used on period properties in Crawley, Horsham and the surrounding areas. This guttering can last for decades if maintained and repaired. Specialist paint finishes stop cast iron from rusting so cast iron gutter repairs on this material can also include recoating to preserve the finish.

Because cast iron is one of the heaviest metals used to make guttering, the weight load can cause the fastenings to loosen. We tighten fastenings if they are still in a good state of repair, or we replace them as part of the job.

Cracks and Corrosion

Unlike UPVC, which doesn’t corrode, metal gutters rust once the protective coating wears thin. Harsh weather conditions will eventually work through the paintwork to expose bare metal, and this is where problems usually begin. Wear and tear make metal guttering less resistant to rain, snow and ice, and more susceptible to damage. Even from ground level, it is usually possible to see cracks and corrosion. Left unattended, this damage will only worsen.

Metal gutter repairs include sanding and treating areas with surface rust, and reapplying protective coatings, to restore the integrity of your roofline.

Zac’s Gutters can also offer a metal gutter replacement service in Crawley, our hometown, and in all surrounding locations in the South of England to include the key service area of Horsham. We advise that you call us at least every two years to have your roofing and roofline inspected, and to always book in for repair or replacement as soon as possible so that dampness and moisture aren’t given the chance to worsen an already precarious situation.
