How Do You Know It’s Time For A Gutter Upgrade?
If you can answer ‘yes’ to any of the following questions, it may be time for a serious gutter upgrade…
- Are your gutters cracked or split?
- Are your gutters overflowing?
- Is the paint on your gutters peeling off?
- Are there any water stains or mould appearing around your gutters?
- Are your gutters sagging or pulling away from your building?
1. Choose a Gutter Material You Can Rely On
For us the only choice is, of course, aluminium. Lightweight, highly durable and easy to install, the first step to your gutter upgrade is choosing aluminium guttering.
Here’s how our premium, BBA-approved aluminium compares to other common guttering materials:
- Steel: Steel is a robust metal, but it doesn’t have the same corrosion resistance as aluminium. It also offers limited design options, whereas, our aluminium guttering can be powder-coated in any RAL colour you like!
- Cast Iron: If left unmaintained or not sufficiently maintained, cast iron gutters can become susceptible to rust, meaning they require regular repainting to keep up appearances. It is also difficult and expensive to install compared to aluminium, which is lightweight and simple to fit.
- Plastic: While plastic may be cheap, aluminium is much more durable. Plastic cannot withstand the same harsh weather conditions as aluminium, meaning it can become brittle and crack over time. It is also the subject of many environmental concerns. On the other hand, aluminium is infinitely recyclable.
Why not take your gutter upgrade to the next level with our best-selling Seamless Aluminium Guttering? With no joints in the running length, you’ll never have to worry about leaks again!
2. Choose Substance AND Style
Choosing the right material is only half the battle. If you want to add aesthetic value to your home, or even improve the kerb appeal of your property, our wide range of aluminium guttering offers both substance AND style. Here’s how:
- Suits Any Architectural Style: With something on offer for everyone, our vast array of aluminium guttering is designed to suit any architectural era – ranging from Georgian and Victorian period-style homes, to modern new-build developments and contemporary refurbishment projects. Top Tip: If you’ve just refurbished your property, we would recommend styles that are interchangeable with existing gutters of a similar section, such as:
- Available in Any RAL Colour: Say goodbye to the days of regular repainting, and hello to a highly durable, customisable powder-coated finish (available in any RAL colour of your choice!).
- Versatile Supporting Components Available: Whether you need your Aluminium Downpipes or Hopper Heads to match the style of your building/gutters, we offer a versatile selection so you can choose what suits you best:
3. Keep Installation in Mind
Don’t just think about the material and style of your gutters, consider the following too:
- Do my chosen gutters have hidden joints (or none if it’s seamless) to simplify the joining process?
- Do my chosen gutters have a proper fall angle/slope for efficient rainwater drainage?
- Does my chosen gutter supplier offer durable brackets and gutter guards to make maintenance easier?
- Have I chosen a gutter installer with plenty of experience?
If you can answer yes to all of the above, you’ve made a smart decision to protect your investment. But how does InterCounty match up with the above questions?
