The Finlock Gutter Lining Process
Concrete gutter lining is an alternate repair service that keeps the concrete gutters on your home but re-lines the gutters to restore their functionality. Gutter lining removes the old lining and replaces it to restore the functionality of the gutters, sealing them from leaks and other issues.
Having concrete gutter lining over a replacement is a cheaper repair service, but it will not stop the issues from returning. The lining will eventually wear down again and the issues will return. However, lining your gutters is a more cost-effective solution if you are on a budget and is still efficient at stopping leaking and other issues.
The lining process will not require any scaffolding, unless absolutely necessary. The first step is to prepare the site, next the tiles will be removed in order to make the next steps easier.
After this, the old lining will be cut away and the gutters will be cleaned out thoroughly. Next, the gutters will be lined using a quick drying.
waterproof, fiberglass paint that is more effective than alternate lining solutions. Once the lining is dry, your E.P.S system will be installed, flash form fitted, and the tiles will be replaced. If your property is joined to neighbours, the gutters will be seamlessly joined to the neighbours’ gutters.

What Problems do Finlock Gutters Cause?
There are a variety of common issues caused by concrete gutters. Due to the porousness of the concrete, the gutter lining is prone to failing, resulting in leaks and other issues with the functionality of the gutters.
Other issues include damp and mould appearing in your home, as well as leaks, and external leaks from your gutters. Issues with your concrete gutters can result in both interior and exterior issues, as well as future costly repairs if left untreated.
Replace or Repair?
The above issues can be rectified by concrete gutter lining or a complete concrete gutter removal and replacement. Whilst both methods have their positives, a removal and replacement is the most effective method for ensuring your gutters are restored to functional, working order.
Cost
Concrete gutter lining is a better short-term solution that is more cost-effective. However, the issues are likely to return unless the gutters are replaced entirely. For this reason, a concrete gutter replacement is the better alternative to avoid further repair work. A Finlock gutter replacement will be the most cost-effective in the long run as it minimises future repair work. But it is also the most expensive upfront.
