Upper North Shore

Federation and inter-war houses, with apartment buildings near the station. That mix shapes the gutter work we are asked to do here. Jobs in Gordon are scheduled alongside other work in the Upper North Shore, so we are usually nearby. That includes streets around Gordon Centre, Ku-ring-gai Council Chambers and St Johns Avenue.

Period homes and matching profiles

Older houses in Gordon often still have their original gutter line, sometimes patched many times over. Where the property is heritage listed or inside a conservation area we keep to traditional profiles such as ogee and half round, and we check the timber fascia and brackets behind the gutter, which is where hidden rot tends to be.

Bushfire-prone land and ember protection

Parts of Gordon are mapped as bushfire-prone land. Dry leaves sitting in a gutter are one of the easiest places for embers to take hold, so keeping gutters clear matters for more than drainage. Where a guard is fitted on bushfire-prone land it should be non-combustible metal mesh. We can advise on products suited to your property and its BAL rating.

Leaf litter and blocked gutters

Leaf build-up is the most common reason gutters overflow in Gordon. Wet debris holds moisture against the metal for weeks, so blocked gutters fail years earlier than clear ones, and blocked downpipes push water back toward the eaves. We clear gutters and downpipes, check the fall, and can fit aluminium or steel mesh gutter guard matched to your roof profile.

What we look for on Gordon roofs

• Dense canopy of tall gums and mature garden trees dropping leaves, bark and twigs year-round
• Among Sydney's higher-rainfall suburbs, so gutter capacity and correct fall matter
• Bushfire-prone land close to bushland, so gutters need to be kept clear of leaf litter
