FAQs
Book regular roof checks (e.g., twice a year) to catch and repair issues early, like damaged tiles and slates, blocked gutters, moss growth, loose flashings and more.
Yes! In most cases, we can match existing gutter profiles, materials and colours so that any new sections integrate seamlessly with your system. During our site survey, we’ll identify your guttering profile (pipe shape), material and colour. If the exact match is no longer made, we’ll discuss the most suitable alternatives for a sympathetic upgrade.
Many households and businesses book our gutter clearance service and roofline inspections twice a year, especially if there are tall trees onsite. We also perform additional gutter surveys after storms, when you’ve noticed leaks (or overflowing water), or if your guttering is coming to the end of its lifetime. Regular gutter cleaning prevents blockages, backups, structural damage and leaks.
One of the main reasons for gutter leaks is blockages, like leaves, moss and twigs clogging up the system, causing water to back up and overflow. There may also be some failing seals or joints at guttering junctions, causing water to seep out of the gaps. Misaligned gutters, loose brackets, insufficient gutter size, cracks, corrosion, warping and old materials are also common culprits.

The time to install new gutters will come down to the size and complexity of the building, accessibility, how much removal or preparation are required, and weather conditions. At South Thames Roofing, we often perform guttering installations within a day, but our site survey will provide you with the expected timescales.
There are many aspects affecting the price of roofing work, from access and height restrictions to the job complexity and disposal costs. Typical gutter installation costs are usually by material, profile and property type. On the other hand, gutter repair costs are often structured per metre, per joint or by the number of downpipe sections. Repairs can be more cost-effective if the damage is minor or localised, but a total replacement is more economical when your system is old and in disrepair, or you’re updating your roofline anyway.
