Often investors, businesses and homeowners can leave their downpipes and gutter maintenance longer than they should even though it is an important part of maintaining the condition of your building’s integrity.
The signs to look out for to see if your downpipes and gutters may need repairs or replacement are cracked and perished pipework and guttering or if you begin to notice mould appearing on the wall of the building. Gutters can also overflow during heavy rains if they are full of debris and have not been cleaned.
When downpipes start to come away from the walls and gutter this can indicate a lack of brackets and pipework not secured to the building.
Letting this continue can result in water leaks that can be evident by the presence of mould.
Evidence of rust on metal guttering or downpipes can indicate the existence of corrosion, it is advisable to have these regularly inspected to ensure they haven’t corroded too much.
