Restoration of “holed” rusted gutters


On occasions the extent of corrosion in a gutter can be extreme enough to "hole" the gutter and localised sections can also become unstable and not safe to traffic. These conditions are usually found when the gutter is cleaned, probably for the first time in many years. It is rare for the corrosion to extend continuously along the length of the existing gutter and is most often isolated in localised sections. The structural strength of these areas can be restored by the inclusion of 1.5mm - 2mm galvanized steel trays or flashings, which only extend partially up the sides of the existing gutter but close enough to the existing profile to be mechanically attached to "good" substrate material. Existing gutter brackets also assist in this respect providing the tray spans bracket to bracket.


Following this treatment Unifold® can be installed normally over the top.
