When replacement may be considered
Localised faults can often be repaired. Replacement may be worth discussing when problems affect several sections, fittings are brittle or the existing system no longer drains effectively.
Replacement quotes may cover
- Removal of old guttering and fittings
- New gutter runs, brackets and outlets
- Downpipe replacement or alterations
- Matching extensions or adjoining sections
- Disposal and final flow checks

Ask each contractor to explain the material, profile, colour, included fittings, waste removal and any guarantee they provide. Check that the quote addresses access and all affected elevations.
