Expert guttering solutions to protect your home
Internal Gutter Conversion – A Smarter, More Reliable Drainage Solution
Many older New Zealand homes feature internal gutter systems, sometimes called Taylored facia or concealed guttering, These are prone to leaks, blockages, and water damage if not properly maintained. At Sound Homes, we specialise in converting these outdated systems into modern, external solutions that improve durability and safeguard your home.
Why Convert?
Internal gutters, popular until theearly 2000's, often fail due to debris buildup and poor drainage and just bad design, causing water to backflow into soffits and wall cavities—leading to weathertightness issues, structural damage, and mould. Upgrading to an external fascia and gutter system not only prevents these risks but also enhances your home’s value and appearance.
Key advantages:
- Prevents Water Damage & Leaks – Eliminates the risk of overflow, leaks, and moisture intrusion into walls and ceilings.
- Improves Drainage Efficiency – Upgraded external gutters ensure proper water flow and reduce pooling on your roof.
- Reduces Ongoing Maintenance Costs – Modern external gutters require less frequent cleaning and repairs compared to internal systems.
- Increases Home Value & Compliance – A converted gutter system enhances your home’s long-term value and aligns with modern building standards.
- Minimizes Risk of Mould & Rot – Proper drainage prevents dampness, reducing the chance of mould, rot, and structural issues.
- Custom Solutions for Every Home – We tailor our conversion process to suit your home’s design and specific drainage needs.
