Repairing conservatory gutters

TheCyclingProgrammer

The front gutter on our conservatory is coming apart a bit, despite several attempts to put it back together. I think is been made worse by the neighbours cat walking and climbing on it.

Both the corner joint and the join near the drainpipe are loose but the corner joint in particular is leaking, causing a constant annoying drip onto the window sill below it and also causing excess dampness in the bricks at the bottom so I want to get this sorted before it starts causing damp problems inside.

I'm not sure if it just needs taking apart, given a good clean and putting back together again (it never seems to stay in place) or if it needs replacing. Is this an easy DIY job? Would prefer to fix it myself if I can. If not, who should I be looking for to fix this and how much should I expect to pay?

Hmm, well I decided to go ahead and take the gutter off and the two joining pieces. They were pretty dirty and had loads of muck and moss growing between the gutter and the rubber seals. I took everything apart, cleaned it and put it all back together but unfortunately it hasn't solved the problem.

The rubber gaskets seem to have shrunk and don't form a good seal. To make things worse the guttering seems twisted and seems to be falling towards the corner opposite the downpipe. I can't see any option other than to have the entire guttering renewed.

How much should I expect this to cost all in? It's two sides, about 3m and 2m long, one corner and one downpipe connection?

I don't think it would be a difficult DIY job. If it were high up by the roof i'd get someone in, but you can reach that on a stepladder,
Go and have a look at some of the videos on Youtube for renewing gutters , see what you think.

OK, did a bit more research. Its quite normal for guttering on conservatories to be level apparently as they are normally clipped into the eaves beam.

Managed to find a logo on the frame that shows its a K2 conservatory frame so have managed to go online and find replacement gutter clips and gasket seals so hopefully that's all I need.
