Gutter cleaning, repair and replacement across Warwick and CV34. Victorian cast iron maintenance, uPVC replacement and conservation-profile work for Old Town properties — free quotes, no call-out fees.
Guttering in Warwick divides sharply by property era. The Victorian and Edwardian streets around the castle, off Smith Street and throughout the residential areas flanking the town centre retain significant quantities of original cast iron half-round and ogee guttering. Some of this stock is in remarkably good condition; much of it needs either professional re-sealing and re-hanging or replacement with aluminium profiles that match the original appearance. In the conservation area, uPVC is sometimes not the appropriate replacement choice and we advise on this in every survey.
Warwick has a higher proportion of surviving cast iron guttering than most Warwickshire towns, concentrated on the Victorian and Edwardian stock in the residential streets around the castle and along the Banbury Road approach. Cast iron that has been well maintained can last indefinitely; cast iron that has been ignored rusts through at the joints and bracket fixings over decades. We clean, re-seal, re-hang and treat cast iron in preference to replacement where the material is still sound, and replace with matched aluminium where it is not.
The 1930s to 1960s residential areas in the streets between the Banbury Road and Myton Road, and on the southern approaches to the town, have predominantly uPVC guttering from the 1980s and 1990s that is now becoming brittle. Section replacements and full re-runs are both common requests in these areas.

“Victorian cast iron guttering on the Smith Street terrace re-sealed, re-hung and treated at three joints. Much better value than replacing with uPVC and the existing cast iron looks excellent once cleaned and painted.”
“Full uPVC guttering replacement on the 1950s semi near the racecourse. New run, new downpipes, complete in half a day. Competitive price and no mess left behind.”
“Annual gutter clear on the detached Victorian near the castle. They found a cracked downpipe junction that was sending water against the wall face and repaired it on the same visit. Exactly what you pay for.”
Yes. Cast iron gutter cleaning, re-sealing, re-hanging and rust treatment is a regular part of our Warwick work. We work on both the original Victorian and Edwardian stock and later cast iron installations across CV34.
Yes. For properties in Warwick’s conservation area where uPVC is not appropriate, we can supply ogee and half-round aluminium guttering profiles that closely match the original cast iron appearance. We advise on planning implications in every conservation area survey.
A single gutter clear and flush costs £80 to £200. Full uPVC replacement on a standard Warwick semi is £300 to £950. Cast iron to aluminium conversion is £500 to £1,400 depending on length and profile. Free no-obligation quotes for all work.
Once or twice a year is standard. The mature street trees throughout Warwick’s residential areas — particularly the limes and chestnuts along the castle approach roads — shed debris that blocks gutters and downpipes faster than open-country properties. An autumn clean is the most important single maintenance action.
No call-out fees. No obligation. Just an honest quote from a local Warwick roofer who turns up when they say they will.
