Downpipe Replacement in Sydney

Questions and answers
It depends on the roof area, the gutter size and how the roof is split into sections. As a rule of thumb, each downpipe should drain a manageable share of the roof, and a long gutter should never rely on one outlet at the far end. We work it out for your roof when we quote.
Usually it is blocked at the first bend or at the bottom, so it fills with water. Sometimes it is simply too small for the roof above. A hose test tells us which.
Yes. We fit a new outlet in the gutter, patch the old one and run the downpipe to its new spot. It then needs a stormwater connection at the new position.
Yes. The downpipes feed the tank, and the tank's overflow goes to the stormwater. Using tank water inside the house needs a backflow check first.
Steel suits the front of most houses and matches the gutters. PVC is serviceable out of sight but becomes brittle in full sun. We talk you through both at the quote.
It depends on the length, the number of bends, the profile and whether the connection at the ground needs work too. Coming out to measure up is free on a booked job, and you see the written price before anything comes down.
