Many homes in New Zealand, especially those built in the late 80s and 90s, were equipped with internal gutter systems. While once popular, these systems are now prone to failure, often resulting in leaks near windows, doors, and soffits. The damage can be extensive, leading to issues like mold buildup, paint deterioration, and water infiltration, which can compromise the integrity of the home and even pose health risks.
Switching from an internal gutter to an external fascia and gutter system not only prevents leaks but also improves your gutter purpose and adds value to your home. By converting your gutters, you can ensure that rainwater is effectively channeled away from your property, safeguarding your home’s structural integrity. External gutters are far more effective at managing rainwater, reducing the risk of water damage to the house structure. Plus, modern external gutter is a great way to add value and make your home easier to sell, as internal gutters are often flagged during home inspections.
This conversion project is typically completed within a few days, providing immediate protection against rain water damage and long-term peace of mind. Proper maintenance is key to preventing issues, but if your home has persistent leaks or visible damage such as rust spots, black mold, or water stains, it’s time to consider replacing your internal gutter system.
