Gutter Lining Coatings
ASL Commercial Roofing's gutter lining coatings system
Our Guttercote system has been specifically designed for the ever changing UK climate & with refurbishment flow rates in mind.
Many competing systems reduce the flow rate of the old gutter at a time when they need increasing to handle the heavier flow ratios.
All types of gutter can benefit from this system.
We have extensive experience in our field and can repair metal gutters that are rusted through or change spiggots to down pipes that have failed for example. With a 20 year warranty available we can cover all requirements from cost effective solutions to long term guarantee needs.

FAQ'S
Here at ASL Commercial Roofing we know that you might have questions – please see the most frequently asked ones. If these still don’t address your particular query please get in touch.
My gutter leaks, how can this be repaired?
We have systems that can repair rusted metal, timber, concrete, asbestos, lead, felt, asphalt and even plastic gutters. Depending upon the nature of the damage, we have an assortment of repair products and coatings that can deal with any of the above.
Should I consider a gutter lining membrane for my gutters?
From our experience gutter lining membranes are measured by the contractor, sent to a manufacturer and returned as a specific kit up to 10 days later.
They are difficult to install and need heat guns to melt the pieces together, a fire risk and one that very few contractors actually have insurance for.
The greatest issue however is that these systems are glued into the valley of the gutter and if this is rusty the glue can easily de-bond causing the membrane to balloon in the gutter and reduce the flow rate massively. They can also, in extreme areas, suffer from wind-uplift that sucks the membrane from the gutter and inverts it causing the water to run back into the building.
My gutter is very rusty, can this be treated?
Our Guttercote system has been engineered to treat a rusty gutter. It cures in 30 minutes, has no joints that can leak, can cure at minus 40 degrees and even under water! A truly engineered system for the task.
Can the damage to be gutter be repaired or does it need to be replaced?
In many cases we can re-structure the gutter with our system by adding in a glass fibre matting. If there are large holes in the gutter we can repair these with steel plating fixed to a solid aspect, which is then waterproofed into place using one of our various systems.
The downpipes have broken away from the gutter spigot, can this be fixed?
We regularly fabricate new spigots to fit into the gutter valley and into the down pipe, through the rusted away junction. These are made to measure and ensure a maximum flow rate to the gutter, after all it is getting wetter and wetter each year and gutters flow rates are forever being challenged.
