Before any quote we assess rafter feet behind the fascia. Salt air and humidity cause rafter foot rot that is invisible until the fascia is removed.
Where timber is sound, cap-over is faster and cheaper. Where timber has rotted, full strip-back and replacement is required.
On any coastal West Sussex property, the south and south-west facing fascia deteriorates 18–24 months ahead of north-facing. We inspect the priority face first.
We check gutters, joints, brackets, downpipes and the fascia behind — the fault is often the fixing, not the gutter itself.
Debris cleared, then we run water through to confirm it flows to the outlet and doesn't pond mid-run.
Re-seal joints and re-fix brackets where sound, or replace tired sections in matching UPVC or aluminium.
Where the timber behind has rotted we replace fascia and soffit so the new guttering has something solid to fix to.
Downpipes cleared or renewed and discharge checked into the gully, so water leaves the building cleanly.
Typical timescales for Hill Barn properties. Every roof differs — your written quote confirms the schedule for your job.
| Timescale | Stage | What happens |
|---|---|---|
| Same day | Clear & minor repair | Gutter clearing, a re-sealed joint or a re-fixed bracket on a standard house. |
| 1 day | Full gutter replacement | New UPVC guttering and downpipes to a typical semi or terrace. |
| 1–2 days | Guttering + fascia/soffit | Where the timber behind needs renewing alongside the guttering. |
| Within days | Quote to completion | Fast turnaround — guttering is our quickest-scheduled work. |
