Reliable gutter fixers

Hello - does anyone know of RELIABLE firm that fixes gutters in the Putney area? We had ours done last autumn by a ..... firm, and they're coming apart already (the gutters, not the firm - I wish!)

I keep hoping someone will come up with a suggestion as I too have to get something done about my gutter and am wary of hiring a firm that will leave me worse than when I started.Have you tried Checkatrade or Which Trusted Traders?

I've tried Checkatrade and found a local firm that looks reliable - Russell Hanson (https://russellhanson.co.uk/).He's coming round on Tuesday to have a look and if you like I'll report back after he's been here.

Try Keith on 020 3393 2866, based in Fulham. Found them very helpful, thorough, and extremely good value in doing our gutters. Only a short while ago so haven't had much of a test yet but no reason to doubt.

Thanks for this suggestion.Did they need scaffolding? My house is a small cottage, so not very high

Sorry, stupidly gave my own office number instead of Keith's. I have passed on your message Elizabeth, and for the record Keith's real number is 020 8560 3354. They used a ladder for our two storey house.

Thanks Steve.You may have already picked up a voicemail from me!

Steve, Thank you very much.  Keith phoned me yesterday and Richard has just been. He cleaned out the gutters and replaced a couple of joints, one of which I was conscious was leaking a lot.  Fortunately it hasn't rained today so the leaky bit was obvious when he poured water into the gutters.Richard was very pleasant and thoughtful, so thanks for the recommendation.Elizabeth

I can report back that Russell Hanson is a good egg and he did a good job fixing our gutter. Recommended!
