Drips from a joint, a corner pulling off the fascia or a run that holds a puddle after every shower – we fix leaking, loose and dipped guttering on Merrow properties using genuine replacement fittings rather than a squirt of sealant.
Gutter failures in Merrow tend to creep up on people. The rubber inside a union hardens and cracks, an old screw corrodes until its bracket swings free, or one length slumps just enough for a puddle to sit there after each shower. Left alone, that drip stains the brickwork, softens the fascia and, on a north wall, feeds a permanent green streak. Our gutter repairs in Merrow deal with the cause: perished joints are swapped for new unions, missing or snapped brackets are replaced and re-spaced, and slumped lengths are raised until rain once again slides downhill to the outlet.
We keep the usual uPVC fittings on the van – unions, stop ends, running outlets, brackets, angles and downpipe sockets in standard profiles and colours – so many jobs are finished in a single visit. Where a length has cracked or a downpipe has split, that piece is removed entirely and a new one goes in; tape is never the answer. A lot of our repair work is actually found during gutter cleans: once a gutter is empty, faults are easy to see, and nothing gets fitted until you have seen the fault in a photo and said yes to the cost. If patching would be throwing good money after bad, you will hear that straight and we can look at new guttering instead.
Plenty of Merrow homes date from the 1920s to the 1960s, and many of their original gutters have already been swapped for uPVC, often in the 1980s or 1990s. Those first-generation plastic systems are now reaching the age where rubber seals harden and brackets become brittle. Along Epsom Road and the roads around St John’s Church we regularly see unions weeping at the corners of hipped roofs, where expansion and contraction stress the joints most. On Bushy Hill and in the Merrow Park area, garage and extension gutters added later are often fitted with too few brackets and begin to bow.
The trees around Merrow add their own strain. A gutter half-full of wet beech leaves and moss from the Downs is surprisingly heavy, and that weight bends brackets and drags the run down in the middle. Once the fall is lost, water pools, the debris stays wet, and the joints spend the winter soaking – which is exactly when seals fail. Houses near Merrow Woods, Boxgrove and the golf course, where gardens are heavily planted, see this pattern often.
We repair guttering throughout Merrow in GU1 and GU4, from the town end of Epsom Road out towards Newlands Corner and the Clandons. If your gutter was cleaned recently but still drips or overflows in one spot, the problem is almost certainly a fault rather than a blockage, and it is usually quick to put right.
We find the actual fault first, agree the fix with you, then put it right with matching parts.
From your photos and a close look on site, we locate the failed union, bracket or section. Staining patterns on the wall often point straight to the problem joint.
We explain what has failed and what it needs – a new union, extra brackets or a replacement length – and confirm the cost before a single part is fitted.
Old fittings come off, contact surfaces are cleaned, and new components are fitted in a matching profile and colour. Sagging stretches are re-bracketed to a correct, even fall.
Water is run along the gutter to check the joint is sealed and the flow reaches the outlet. We bag up the removed fittings and leave nothing behind on your path.

These are the faults Merrow homeowners most often call us about. Happily, almost none of them mean starting again from scratch:
Fixing these early stops damp patches spreading and keeps the fascia boards in good condition.
Your quote is based on the specific faults, not a call-out formula, and it is fixed once agreed. What moves the figure:
A close-up of the leak alongside one zoomed-out picture of the wall it sits on is normally plenty for an exact figure.
Plastic guttering grows and shrinks between a frosty night and a hot afternoon, so a bead of silicone over a failed union soon tears loose. We replace the union with a new one so the rubber gasket does the job it was designed for, which gives a far longer-lasting fix.
Very. Hipped roofs mean the gutter turns several corners, and angle joints take the most movement. On older uPVC systems those seals are often the first to fail. Replacing the angles and unions usually cures it without touching the rest of the run.
Half-round, square-line and ogee parts in black, brown, white and grey live on the van. If yours is an older or discontinued profile, we will check what is compatible, and if a perfect match is not available we will discuss options such as adaptors or replacing a section.
Usually, yes. Garage gutters on Bushy Hill and Merrow Park homes are often under-bracketed. Extra brackets go in, tired ones come out, and the length is re-hung with a gentle slope down to the outlet so the dip disappears.
If the faults are limited to a few joints or brackets, repair is the sensible choice. When the plastic has gone brittle along its length or there are leaks at almost every joint, replacement can be better value, and we will tell you honestly which makes more sense.
Indeed – combining the two saves you a second visit. Clean gutters reveal faults clearly, and because we carry common parts, approved repairs can usually be completed there and then rather than needing another trip.
