Leaking gutters are a common problem for homeowners in Salisbury. You may notice drips in light
rain, heavy overflow in a downpour or water marks on your walls. The good news is that the cause is usually easy
to diagnose and repair.

Most common causes of leaking gutters

Here are some of the main reasons your gutters might be leaking:

• Failed joints: The seals between gutter sections can wear out or perish over time, leading to
  drips at the joins.
• Cracks and holes: Age, UV exposure and weather can cause uPVC or metal gutters to split or crack.
• Sagging gutters: When brackets become loose, gutters lose their correct fall and water pools
  instead of flowing away.
• Blocked outlets or downpipes: Even if the gutter looks clear, a blocked outlet can cause water
  to back up and overflow.

Why you shouldn’t ignore gutter leaks

A small leak might not seem like a big issue, but over time it can cause significant damage, including:

• Damp patches and mould inside your home
• Staining and erosion on exterior walls
• Rotting fascias, soffits and roof timbers
• Water pooling around foundations and paths

Fixing a leak early is always cheaper than repairing damp damage later on.
