GUTTERS AND DOWN PIPES
Gutters & downpipes are a big deal around your home. Do your gutters look like water falls? Is your roof leaking?

Maybe it’s time to call LPG to ensure water flows away correctly.

Guttering and Downpipe Maintenance
Some guttering and downpipes can be tricky to get to and without the necessary tools to get the job done, repairs and maintenance may be difficult. However, given the damage a blocked drain or gutter could cause, it’s recommended that maintenance is carried out at least once a year.
Maintaining your guttering starts with removal of leaf collection, debris and even a missing ball or two. Overhanging trees are great culprits for clogged gutters and downpipes, and will hinder the smooth flow of stormwater. Regular maintenance of your roof, downpipes and gutters is the best prevention of some significant damage occurring in a heavy rain event and the small cost now could potentially save you thousands in the long run.
Poorly maintained gutters and downpipes are undoubtedly prone to rust and corrosion leading to holes where water will escape. Escaping water in torrential rain could even affect the foundations of your home.
