Gutter repairs & replacement
Guttering is the single most searched thing this business gets asked for, and it's the most commonly neglected part of a roof. Once a gutter rusts through or sags below its fall, water runs down the fascia and into the wall cavity instead of away from the house.

Sound familiar?
Signs you need this
- Water spilling over the front of the gutter in rain
- Rust holes, or staining down the fascia below the gutter
- Gutter sagging away from the roof line
- Plants growing in the gutter
- Damp patch on an internal wall below the roof line
Seeing one of these? It rarely fixes itself, and the earlier we look, the smaller the job usually is.

Our work
What this looks like on the roof
Photos from our own jobs: the roofs as we found them and as we left them, not stock imagery.
Cost
What this costs, honestly
Anyone who quotes you a firm price over the phone is guessing. Four things move the number, and we can only weigh them from the roof, which is why we look first, then quote a fixed price before any work starts. The inspection and the quote are free.
How much of the roof is involved
Three cracked tiles and a re-point is a morning. A whole ridge line, or a valley that's rusted through end to end, is not.
What it's made of
Terracotta, concrete tile, slate and Colorbond all behave differently and cost differently to work on. Matching an old terracotta profile costs more than replacing a modern concrete tile.
How hard it is to get to
A single-storey bungalow with a driveway is straightforward. A three-storey terrace with no street frontage, shared valleys and no room to stage from means scaffolding and time.
What's underneath
This is the one that moves the number most. If water has been getting in for a while, the battens, rafters or fascia may have gone. We can't see that until we're up there, which is exactly why we look before we quote.
Questions
Common questions
Is the quote free, and is there any obligation?
Yes and no, in that order. We'll come out, get on the roof, and give you a written quote at no cost. There's no obligation to go ahead, and we won't chase you.
Are you really available 24/7?
Yes. Not an answering service. The phone gets answered. If water is coming through your ceiling at 2am, that's exactly when you need a roofer, and we'll get someone out to make it safe. The permanent repair happens once the weather clears and we can see properly.
My ceiling is stained but the roof looks fine. What's going on?
That's the normal case, not the odd one. Water almost never comes through directly above the stain. It enters somewhere higher up, runs along a batten, a rafter or the sarking, and drops at the first low point it reaches. That can easily be several metres from the actual hole. It's why patching the obvious spot so often fails, and why we trace the entry point properly before quoting anything.
How often should gutters be cleared?
Twice a year for most homes, and more if you've got large trees close by, which in the Inner West most people do. Blocked gutters are the single most common cause of the damp patches we get called out to. Water backs up over the gutter's inside edge, runs down the fascia, and into the wall cavity or the eaves. It's the cheapest possible maintenance and the most expensive thing to ignore.
Can you replace guttering without replacing the whole roof?
Yes, and it's a very common job on its own. New gutters, downpipes and fascia can all be done independently of the roof sheeting or tiles.
Do you do commercial and strata work?
Yes, both. A good deal of our work is converted warehouses, large-span metal roofs and box gutters around Alexandria, Marrickville and St Peters, plus strata buildings across the Inner West and the CBD. We're used to working with strata managers and around tenants.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes, fully licensed and insured, for both domestic and commercial work.
Which areas do you cover?
The Inner West is home. Our yard is in Rosebery, so most Inner West jobs are a short drive. We also work across the Sydney CBD and out through Parramatta and Auburn. If you're not sure whether you're in range, call and ask; the answer is usually yes.
