Guttering replacement costs in the UK depend on the material, run length, and style of guttering. Leaking, sagging or blocked gutters are one of the most common causes of property damp — so timely replacement protects your home and can prevent much more expensive repairs.
✓ Every Countrywide guttering job is backed by a 10-year IBG — lender-recognised
Our CORC-accredited workmanship and insurance-backed guarantee are accepted by all major UK mortgage lenders and surveyors. Defective guttering flagged in a survey? Our completion certificate and IBG satisfy lender requirements so your property sale or remortgage proceeds without delay.

Combined Guttering, Fascia & Soffit Replacement
We most commonly replace guttering, fascias and soffits together in one visit — this is cost-effective as scaffolding is shared:
- Terraced (2 sides) — UPVC fascia, soffit and guttering: £800–£1,500
- Semi-detached (3 sides): £1,200–£2,200
- Detached (4 sides): £1,800–£3,500
Signs Your Guttering Needs Replacing
- Water overflowing during rain (blocked or sagging gutters)
- Cracks, splits or holes in the guttering
- Gutters pulling away from the fascia board
- Rust stains or water marks on external walls
- Damp patches inside the property near external walls
- Gutters older than 20–25 years (UPVC lifespan)
Frequently Asked Questions: Guttering Costs
Q: How much does guttering replacement cost?
A: For a 3-bed semi, expect £500–£900 for UPVC guttering only, or £1,200–£2,200 for combined fascia, soffit and guttering.
Q: How long does UPVC guttering last?
A: Typically 20–25 years. Aluminium lasts 30–40 years and cast iron 50+ years with maintenance.
Q: Can you just repair guttering rather than replace it?
A: Minor repairs (joint sealant, bracket replacement) cost £50–£200 and are worth doing if the guttering is otherwise in good condition. If more than 30% needs work, full replacement is usually better value.
