Honest advice
How to Tell You Need Guttering
Blocked or failing guttering is the commonest preventable cause of damp in Winchester homes. Here is how to tell whether you need clearing, a repair, or full replacement. Badger Farm’s housing and setting mean some faults show up here more than elsewhere.
Water overflowing the gutter edge during rain
A vertical damp stain on the wall below a gutter joint
Gutter visibly sagging or pulling away from the fascia
Plant growth in the gutter run
Peeling paint or rot on the fascia behind the gutter
Where this is the wrong fix: If the run is sound and simply blocked, a clean is all you need — not a replacement. We will say so rather than sell you new guttering. Read the full guide.
