Prevent Your Gutters from Freezing This Winter

My wife had her gutters and fascia replaced in February 2019 at her home in Dukinfield. The gutters leak and she has made a number of phone calls and and received promises to attend to the faulty workmanship, no one has called and the problems remain.

Clint came to do the quote when he said he would and in spite of it being a fairly large job including fascias, soffits, gutters and downspouts,he turned the quote round in a couple of days. He was specific about the scaffolding we needed for the difficult sections, and when that was arranged they dropped on the job 10 days later - fantastic. The team worked very hard indeed, in all kinds of weather, and completed the job quicker than expected. Absolutely brilliant job, great attention to detail and care about stray nails too. We really are so pleased with the result it has transformed the look of the house and now we don't have to spend a fortune every few years having it all painted. Great bunch of lads, really were a pleasure to have around - we even missed their banter after they had gone! I will post some pictures when we have finished painting the masonary!

Paul initially came to fix a leaking gutter in 2018 at my residential address in Whalley Range, Manchester. There was clippings and gutter joints that had become damaged due to weather or magpies. He arrived as agreed, professional manner and he also cleaned the guttering for me. He also came recently to clean or remove a roof garden from guttering at my commercial premises in Chorlton, Manchester. I cannot recommend him and his team enough. Much appreciated, will definitely use again.

We recently had the team at Gutter Art replace our soffits, facias and gutters. Paul surveyed the job very quickly and provided a fair price for the work. We booked in with them and the installers arrived on time and worked through some horrendous weather to complete the job on time. The finished job is of very high quality and has totally transformed the frontage of our property. Will definitely recommend and would also use again if required.

Work carried out on 22/07/2021. Reviewed on 02/08/2021:Myself and 3 other joining neighbors (row of 4 terrace houses) were all looking to get our mismatched, leaking at the joints, and overflowing gutters replaced. I contacted Paul, and I will be honest, initially I was a bit apprehensive about seamless aluminium gutters.Paul came out quite promptly, and answered mine and any questions my neighbors had, and quoted what we all thought was a reasonable price to replace gutters in the front, and back for a row of 4 houses. He also showed us a sample of guttering. (which was quite deep and surprisingly light). We were all sold.They arrived on the day they said they would, at the time he said he would, and I have to say we were all impressed by Paul and team. They must have worked on potentially the hottest day of the year so far? (30 degrees).They literally just came out and cracked on, no messing. They removed all 4 houses worth of old guttering front and back, disposed of it, and installed the new aluminium guttering in the absolutely blistering heat.They were very considerate with our requests (such as being careful with existing down pipes, careful walking on extensions roofs and tidied up after themselves). They were so tidy, my kitchen roof was tidier after they left.I waited a while to write the review, because although they installed the gutters to what seemed a very high standard it had not rained, and therefore we couldn't know how effective the gutters were.Well since installation it has thunder stormed with very heavy rain, and the gutters handled it absolutely perfectly. No leaks, no overflows, nothing. So far, so good. They are local, and said they'd come out should any issues arise. (which doesn't seem likely).Overall I would recommend,Cheers Paul.

I initially wanted the Seamless Aluminium guttering, but Paul was honest and explained why it wasn't possible to have it, instead of just putting up what I wanted and letting me deal with the consequences, unlike another company who informed me that it would be possible no matter what.When he arrived to do the work, he and his son were friendly and courteous, and did an excellent job quickly, yet efficiently, and cleaned up after themselves.I would definitely use his services again!

I contacted Paul to rectify a terrible job done by another so called reputable company. He arrived as promised and gave a me a very fair quote. We arranged for him to do the work needed. He arrived as promised and did a FABULOUS job. He took away all the old fittings and left the place spotless with a promise to return if I had any problems.If only I had known about Paul in the first place. I would happily recommend Paul and GUTTER ART to anyone friends or family.Thank you Paul

Gutter Art are a good value, professional company. Well worth paying a little extra for the aluminium guttering. We chose white, which looks very good. The fitting was done carefully with plenty of fixings.Update: the wooden soffits and fascias needed replacing (November 2022). GutterArt carefully removed the aluminium gutters and installed new soffits and fascias. As with the original job, this was done professional with close attention to the fitting. The old gutters, which still look good, were then moved back into position. An excellent job done at a fair price.

Highly recommend Gutter Art. Reliable, professional, honest and good value for money.Full facia board and gutter install for the third time after 2 cowboys didn't have a clue. The second lot actually made the leaking gutter a lot worse.I'm really happy Gutter Art has fixed this ongoing leaking Gutter problem. Will definitely use again.Thanks Paul.
