Concrete Gutters


Hi all.

Our house has concrete guttering and they are a bit of a pain. It isn't too bad now the weather is nice, but when the bad weather hits problems are likely to start again.

Basically, where the previous owner didn't look after the house properly cracks have appeared and when it rains the water leaks between the brickwork of the house and the guttering and as you would imagine is causing problems with damp.

Does anyone know if you can remove concrete guttering and replace with good old fashioned plastic ones (if so, any idea of the cost, especially if this is in a field you are familiar with).

Also, if it isn't possible, how easy is it to repair the gutters?
