Guttering, Fascias & Soffits in Newcastle upon Tyne

Replacing the gutters on a typical semi costs £600–£1,300 in uPVC, while small repairs often cost £80–£250. Ask for a repair quote first if only one section has failed.

Once a year for most homes, twice if the property sits under trees. Since blocked gutters are the cheapest problem to prevent, an annual check is worth the small effort.

Usually the eaves felt underneath has perished, since water then runs down behind the gutter rather than into it. A protector tray under the bottom tile course fixes it cheaply.

Replacing the gutters on a typical semi runs around £600–£1,300 in uPVC, more in cast-iron-style aluminium. The total depends on the length of run and how many fittings it needs. Individual repairs — a leaking union, a re-aligned run, replacement brackets — are often £80–£250, so it's worth asking for a repair quote first.

Once a year for most homes, twice if you're under trees. Blocked gutters are the single cheapest roof problem to prevent. They're also one of the most expensive to ignore, once water starts tracking into the fascia and wall.

The fascia is the vertical board carrying the gutter; the soffit is the horizontal board underneath. Timber versions rot when gutter overflows soak them repeatedly. Although uPVC removes that maintenance, the installer still needs to include proper eaves ventilation.

Yes — fascia and soffit replacement is standard standalone work. The bottom row of tiles is lifted, boards swapped, and eaves felt is renewed if perished, with ventilation strips fitted. One to two days for most houses.
