FAQs
What advantages do precision-engineered uPVC roofing and gutter replacements offer over traditional materials?
uPVC is lightweight, corrosion-proof and highly weather-resistant, so it will not rot, rust or flake like timber or metal. Our precision engineering ensures exact joint tolerances, reducing the risk of leaks, while integral UV stabilisers stop fading. Because the sections arrive pre-manufactured to size, installation is faster and less disruptive, and the finished roofline delivers a clean, modern appearance that requires virtually no ongoing maintenance.
How long does a typical uPVC roofline and gutter replacement take in Bristol?
For an average three-bed semi-detached property we can usually remove the old fascias, soffits and gutters and fit new precision-cut uPVC components in 1–2 days. Larger or more complex roofs may take up to 3–4 days. Before work begins we carry out a free survey so we can give you an accurate schedule and confirm any access requirements such as scaffolding.
Is uPVC durable enough for Bristol’s wet and windy climate?
Yes. Our uPVC systems are tested to withstand winds in excess of 150 mph and remain watertight under driving rain. The material is impervious to salt air from the Severn Estuary and will not crack in winter frosts or warp during summer heatwaves. With routine visual checks, the expected service life exceeds 30 years, making it ideal for the South-West’s changeable weather.
Do your uPVC roofline products come with a warranty?
All installations include a 20-year manufacturer’s warranty against cracking, warping and discolouration, plus a 10-year workmanship guarantee from us. Both warranties are insurance-backed and transferable to future homeowners, adding value and peace of mind should you decide to sell your property.
What maintenance is required after installation?
uPVC rooflines are virtually maintenance-free. An annual rinse with a garden hose or a wipe with warm soapy water will keep the boards and gutters looking new. Unlike timber, there is no need for sanding, painting or sealing. We do, however, recommend clearing leaves from the gutters each autumn to maintain optimum water flow.
Can you match my existing colour scheme and dispose of the old roofline materials?
Absolutely. Our uPVC components come in multiple colours and wood-grain finishes, including white, black, anthracite grey and oak effect, so we can match or complement any style of Bristol home. During the project we remove all old timber, metal and plastic roofline materials and take them to licensed recycling centres, leaving your property clean and tidy.
