Ryde & Northern District

Post-war homes, many replaced by large modern houses, along the Parramatta River. That mix shapes the gutter work we are asked to do here. Jobs in Putney are scheduled alongside other work in the Ryde & Northern District, so we are usually nearby. That includes streets around Putney Park, Kissing Point Park and Mortlake Ferry.

Terraces, semis and box gutters

Shared walls and narrow frontages mean a lot of roofs in Putney rely on box gutters and rainwater heads rather than a simple eaves gutter. These need the right fall and an overflow path, otherwise heavy rain ends up inside. We inspect, repair and replace box gutters and can work with your neighbour or strata manager where the gutter is shared.

Salt air and gutter corrosion

Salt carried on the breeze settles on roofs and gutters in Putney and speeds up corrosion, especially on cut edges, rivets and the back of the gutter where it never gets rinsed by rain. We often find gutters that look fine from the ground but have rusted through along the back edge. For coastal replacements we recommend a marine-grade finish such as Colorbond Ultra, with compatible fixings so dissimilar metals do not react.

Leaf litter and blocked gutters

Leaf build-up is the most common reason gutters overflow in Putney. 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 Putney roofs

• Duplex and knock-down rebuild homes with box gutters and concealed downpipes that block easily
• Riverfront homes exposed to salt air off the Parramatta River
• Concrete and terracotta tile roofs with valleys that collect leaf litter
