This case study covers a gutter replacement in Drewvale, as the final stage of a larger drainage job.
Location: Drewvale, Brisbane Southside
Service: Gutter replacement
Date: April 2026
The problem
A Drewvale homeowner had a section of gutter that was no longer doing its job, along with drainage issues on the property. They wanted both sorted properly rather than patched.
What we found
Earlier in the job, our team used a drain jet blaster to clear the drainage and a CCTV drain camera to inspect the line, so we could see its condition. On the roofline, we found a section of gutter that needed replacing.
Fixed-price options
We gave the homeowner fixed-price options for each stage of the work before anything started, and they approved the quoted works in stages. No hourly rate and no surprises.
What we did
- Cleared the drain with a jet blaster in an earlier stage
- Inspected the line with a CCTV drain camera
- Arranged delivery of the new gutter material to site
- Removed the old gutter section
- Replaced the section of gutter and connected it to the existing system
- All work at height carried out safely
The result
With the final stage complete, the new gutter section is carrying rainwater to the downpipes and we’ve cleared and checked the drainage. We finished the quoted works as agreed.
Signs you need a gutter replacement in Drewvale
Rust, sagging sections and leaking joints are common signs a gutter needs replacing. In addition, gutters that overflow in light rain may be blocked or sloped wrongly. So, it’s worth having them checked before the storm season.
See our gutter replacement page for more. Also, the Bureau of Meteorology issues storm warnings, which is a good reminder to book checks early.
