Guttering should last at least fifteen years from installation, but with good maintenance can remain in good working order for over thirty years.
That's why we recommend regular gutter cleaning, as it means grime and obstructions never have a chance to build up enough to become a problem.
Keeping the rain flowing away quickly in heavy rain means there's less weight from water pooling in your gutters, and that means less stress on the components around your roofline, namely the fascia boards and supporting brackets as well as the guttering and downpipes.
