What usually causes blocked gutters in East Sheen

  • Leaf and moss build-up at the downpipe outlet
  • Sagging brackets pulling the gutter off its falls
  • Joint seals perished on old uPVC runs
  • Downpipe routed away from the gulley

Local context: common housing here is large semi-detached and detached family homes with hipped roofs, plus Victorian terraces off Sheen Lane and Upper Richmond Road. Typical coverings: clay plain tile and natural slate, with lead-lined valleys and tall lead-flashed chimneys. East Sheen has conservation pockets — particularly around Sheen Common and the older streets towards Mortlake — where like-for-like materials matter.

How we fix it on East Sheen roofs

  • Full clear-down and water-test of falls
  • Re-space brackets to correct centres so long runs don't sag
  • Re-seal failing joints; replace runs where uPVC is past life
  • Quote leaf-guards as an option where overhanging trees justify them
