Plan the gutters along each roof edge

Tell us which parts of the house you want to address: the front, rear, garage or an addition. Explain anything you have noticed during rain and which existing gutters you intend to keep. Ground-level photos showing the whole roof edge help establish the layout. Point out entrances, decks and walkways beneath the proposed work so we can discuss those areas from the start.

02

Include downspouts and discharge points

Show where the existing downspouts run and where their outlets finish. Mention connections, tight side yards or landscaping that may affect the gutter work. The quote should identify the gutter sections and connections being addressed. Agree where that scope ends and how any separate work on the property’s drainage will be handled, especially when other improvements are planned.

03

Bring roof and gutter work into one plan

If you are changing the roof at the same time, raise the gutter work while the roofing scope is being developed. Discuss the roof edges, existing fascia concerns and the order of the work. Keep gutter items identifiable in the quote so you understand how they fit with removal, roofing materials and other exterior changes. Confirm who is responsible for each part.

04

Agree on appearance, access and scope

Share photos of the home’s trim and exterior, along with any appearance preferences. Confirm the proposed specification before approval. Let us know about gates, vehicles, gardens, pets and tenant access. Talk through the working area and how entrances will be managed. The written scope should describe the gutter work, supporting items, agreed price and how changes will be approved.

How the conversation develops

From the first question to a defined scope.

01
Share the property details
Send your location, a description of the gutter work and photos from the ground. Include any roofing or exterior plans.
02
Define the work together
Discuss the affected roof edges, connections, appearance and access. Confirm the proposed specification and which items belong in the quote.
03
Coordinate the next step
Agree on the work area, property access and project sequence. Review timing alongside the scope and any related roofing work.
04
Keep a clear record
Save the agreed scope, approved changes and any applicable product or workmanship information with the records for your home.

Roofing, explained

Your gutters questions

Have a question about your own roof? We’re happy to talk it through.

Ask us about your project

Can I arrange gutter work without replacing my roof?

You can contact us about gutters on their own or alongside roofing work. Send your address, the sections you want addressed and photos. We’ll discuss the proposed work and the next step for your property.

Will fascia or property drainage work be part of the gutter quote?

The proposal should identify supporting roof-edge work and the gutter connections included. If fascia, soffits or the property’s drainage need separate attention, agree those responsibilities and costs before work starts.

Do I need to climb a ladder or measure the gutters first?

Start with the details you know and photos taken from the ground. You do not need to access the roof to enquire. We can discuss what further information is needed.

What should I compare between gutter quotes?

Compare the roof sections covered, specification, connections, supporting work and access arrangements. Look for a clear price and change process. Ask for applicable coverage in writing rather than assuming the roofing terms apply.
