Post-war fibro and brick homes alongside a large industrial area. That mix shapes the gutter work we are asked to do here. Jobs in Smithfield are scheduled alongside other work in South West Sydney, so we are usually nearby. That includes streets around The Horsley Drive, Cumberland Highway and Smithfield RSL.

Terraces, semis and box gutters

Shared walls and narrow frontages mean a lot of roofs in Smithfield 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.

Heavy rain and storm damage

Summer storms hit Smithfield hard, and a gutter that copes with ordinary rain can be overwhelmed in minutes during a severe cell. After hail or strong wind we check for dented and split gutters, loosened brackets and downpipes knocked out of alignment, and can provide a written report with photos for your insurer.

Older gutters reaching the end of their life

Housing in Smithfield includes plenty of post-war homes whose gutters and downpipes are now well past their design life. Typical signs are rust stains on the fascia, pinholes you can see daylight through, and brackets pulling away from soft timber. We replace gutters, check the fascia behind them and reconnect downpipes to the stormwater line.

What we look for on Smithfield roofs

• Post-war fibro and brick homes with original gutters and eaves that may contain asbestos
• Exposed to severe summer storms and hail that dent and overwhelm gutters
• Large industrial and warehouse roofs with long box gutter runs
