What this work involves
Inspect leaks, fixings, falls and the route to drainage or storage. Coordinate the work with facade maintenance.
- Gutter material and profile
- Fixings and junctions
- Drainage route and maintenance
Use the following design considerations when coordinating this service with a wider project. Agree which parts apply to your request.
Position external doors in relation to the dining table and kitchen route.
What the drawing needs to explain
Put the kitchen, dining table, storage and garden door on the same drawing. Mark the main route without moving chairs to reveal how much clear space actually remains.
Allow for later maintenance
Keep flooring and kitchen information together where materials continue between them. Record how local repairs can connect without refinishing the entire zone.
Which trade-off matters?
A kitchen island can be a pleasant meeting place but also an obstacle between the entrance and garden. Compare it with a wall arrangement before designing kitchen and living areas separately.
Cost factors for this service
Costs depend on length, material, height and fascia repairs. Ask for the scope and selected specification to be described separately.
Bring this to the discussion
Photographs of the existing situation, available drawings and your requirements for gutters & rainwater drainage. Identify the elements that should remain.
Questions about the work
What should I discuss before arranging gutters & rainwater drainage?
Overflow is not always caused by the gutter itself. Blockages, poor connections or downstream drainage may be responsible.
The design situations here illustrate choices; they are not completed projects or a diagnosis of your property.
