Lucan Guttering

Guttering installation and repair, Lucan, County Dublin

Proper guttering. That is where we start. If rainwater is not managed correctly at roof level, it finds its own way down, and that usually means damp walls, eroded pointing, and saturated ground around your foundations.

What we do

We cover the full scope of rainwater work on domestic and residential properties across west Dublin and beyond.

• New gutter installation and full replacements
• uPVC half-round, ogee, and square-line profiles
• Aluminium seamless gutters, including continuous cast-on-site rainwater channels formed to the exact length of your roofline
• Cast iron gutter restoration
• Downpipe repair and replacement, hopper heads, gullies
• Soffit and fascia replacement in uPVC
• Leaf guards and gutter mesh
• Rainwater diverters and water butt connections

Brackets matter more than most people think. Re-spacing fixings to get the correct fall is something we do on nearly every job, because gutters that have sagged or been fitted flat to begin with will never drain properly.

Signs your gutters need replacing

If you see any of the following, it is worth getting someone out to have a look.

1. Visible sagging or gutters pulling away from the fascia
2. Persistent overflow even after cleaning
3. Rust staining or green algae streaking down the walls
4. Cracked or split sections on uPVC runs
5. Damp patches on interior walls directly below the roofline

We source materials locally where we can, Chadwicks being our first stop for most standard fittings and fascia board. For seamless aluminium work, however, the coil stock comes direct from a specialist supplier, formed on site to length.

The fascia has to carry the gutter load correctly. A fascia board that is soft, delaminating, or sitting out of true will undermine even a well-fitted gutter system. That is why we often replace fascia and soffit at the same time as the gutters.
