Interesting job this one.
The customer complained that the gutters on the lower elevation on their property blocked up very easily, and they overflowed all the time, despite the gutters being clean.
Upon us checking, the fall of the gutters was actually going to the right (away from the outlet), even though visually it looked like the fall was correct.
The actual elevation is falling to the right 😮 (great builders !!!) and it looks like the builders when installing the gutters did it by eye 😮.
We removed the guttering, reset the levels and reinstalled them.
The fall of the gutters is now to the left (towards the outlet), so now they drain away correctly.
The final job was to finish off with clean the outside of the gutters and facias to get rid of the algae build-up and dirt & grime, followed by a quick clean of the windows/garage door.
The customer was really happy with the job. The gutters have been this way for many years, and no one was able to remedy the problem (probably because to the eye, the fall seemed fine).
Gutters are designed to collect and guide rainwater off the roof, down into the drain and away from the building, thus preventing potential structural damage.
Clogged or damaged gutters can result in expensive repairs so it's vital to keep them well maintained/clean.
