Honest advice
Guttering: Do You Really Need It?
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. In Teg Down specifically, among the most exposed estates in the city — high, open, and prone to wind uplift on ridges and verges.
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
Be honest with yourself: 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.
