15 August 2019 - A-Grade Roofing offers a large range of roofing and downpipes replacement services. Like any other thing in the material world, gutters sometimes fail. This may be due to both improper installation and environmental factors - an abnormally high amount of precipitation, gale-force wind and other weather phenomena that create an extreme load on the drain. Let us consider in more detail what kind of damage can happen to the drain, and their causes.

 

A drainage system is an interconnected system of gutters, pipes, funnels, auxiliary and fastening elements, which serves to collect and drain the water generated during precipitation from the roof of the house to the designated place. Parts of the system are mounted to the cornice and facade of the house according to the rules, taking into account many factors - from the shape of the roof to the climatic conditions of the area. Each of the constituent elements of the drainage system performs its function and carries a certain load, respectively, may fail. In most cases, the reason for this is climatic, weather factors. But sometimes the wrong selection of materials, incorrect assembly and other nuances lead to malfunctions. Consider the main factors in more detail.

 

An incorrect tilt angle of the gutters leads to the fact that not all water goes into the funnel, part of it remains in the gutter, where it also freezes in winter. Typically, the angle of inclination should be from 5 to 8 mm per linear meter of the gutter. The roof visor should hang no more than one third above the gutter. If you choose the wrong fasteners or incorrectly fix the components of the drainage system to the roof or facade, the structure can become loose, and during rain and wind it will create excessive noise.
