New guttering, gutter repairs and full fascia and soffit replacement.
A well maintained drainage system is essential for protecting your property from water damage. We install, repair and replace gutters, fascias and soffits to ensure your roof stays in top condition all year round.
Guttering is the cheapest part of a roof to look after and the most expensive to ignore. Water running down a wall for a season does more damage than the blockage that caused it, and rotten fascias take the roof edge with them.

Two roofs, half an hour apart, two specifications
Sheltered, inland Ashford
Galvanised fixings
Perfectly sound here, and cheaper. Spending more would be spending for the sake of it.
Exposed, Lydd and Dymchurch
Stainless fixings
Quoted as standard rather than as an upgrade, because the cheaper option does not survive out here.
Salt off the Channel corrodes ferrous metal far faster than ordinary damp air. We have taken tiles off roofs on the coast after nothing more than a breezy week, purely because the nails holding them had rusted through. That is a specification failure, not a tile failure.
If a roofer quotes the same specification for a Lydd bungalow as for a sheltered terrace in town, they either do not know the difference or have not priced for it.
