Solutions for concrete guttering in Milton Keynes
Many homes still feature concrete gutter systems. Once the gutters’ expected lifespan has elapsed, there are a variety of issues that will result in inevitable repair work.
Concrete Gutter Removal in Milton Keynes
To effectively remove all associated concrete gutter issues, it is advisable to opt for complete Finlock gutter removal and replacement. This process involves removing the concrete gutter system entirely, repairing any damage left behind, and then installing a new, more functional gutter system.
Finlock Removals have an abundance of knowledge, and with over 20 years of experience, means we have seen all the issues that are common with Finlock guttering and are more than trained to safely remove the Finlock guttering from your property.
Our team of fitters provide their own scaffolding equipment, known as Easi-dec, which can be put up, and taken down on the same day – redacting the need for you to pay for scaffolding. Our team will always use diamond-tipped cutting blades, to ensure we deliver only the most precise work possible. This process can, however, be incredibly dusty and noisy, so must always be done by a professional. It’s highly recommended to have a professional complete the work to limit the disturbance as well as produce the best end result – meaning that your property does not need to be revisited at a later date.
Only once your gutters have been successfully removed, can our team begin to install your new state-of-the-art gutter system, as well as an E.P.S tray, to provide superior ventilation to your roof space. Once these have been installed, our team will clean up any residual mess, removing all available rubbish into a heavy-duty Hippo waste bag.

Your Local Concrete Gutter Lining Expert in Milton Keynes
The concrete gutter lining process is the other solution for concrete gutter repairs that Finlock Removals provide. Concrete gutter lining is a service that keeps your existing concrete guttering on your home but works on re-lining them, as a means of restoring them to their former levels of functionality. Gutter lining removes the failing previous lining, and replaces it, to seal the gutters from further leaks and other issues, whilst revamping their effectiveness.
Opting to have a concrete gutter lining service, over having a complete replacement, is a cheaper repair service, however, it will not prevent the issues from reappearing further down the line. Despite our high-quality lining, over the years, it will eventually wear down again - due to the nature and shape of the guttering itself.
Finlock gutter lining processes do not require scaffolding unless it is an absolute necessity. The first step is to prepare the site before the tiles are removed, as it will make the following steps much easier.
Once this has been completed, the previous lining will be cut away by our team, followed by a thorough cleanout. Next, the gutters will be lined using a quick-drying, waterproof fiberglass paint that is more effective than alternative lining solutions. Once the lining is dry, your E.P.S system will be installed, the flash form fitted, and the tiles placed back. If your property is joined to your neighbours’ houses, your gutters will be seamlessly joined to their gutters.

What Problems do Finlock Gutters Cause?
Unfortunately, there are countless issues caused by failing concrete gutters. Owing to the porous nature of the concrete, the gutter lining is prone to deteriorating - until they are rendered useless.
This results in detriments such as leaks, which cause dampness and mould both internally and externally, as well as thermal bridging, and sagging windows. All of which incur increasingly costly repairs if left untreated.
Replace or Repair?
Concrete gutter lining solutions may be the more cost-effective solution in the short term. However, associated issues are likely to return, unless the gutters are replaced in their entirety. For this reason, concrete gutter replacement is the superior alternative, saving you money in the long run, as it minimises future repair work, regardless of the steeper initial cost.
