Industrial guttering and rainwater systems
Roofline repairs, lines and replaces industrial gutters across Barnsley. Valley and boundary gutters relined, leaking joints stopped, outlets and downpipes sized for the roof area, and clearance programmes that stop the flood before it happens.
The gutter is the part that floods the building
On a large industrial roof the gutters carry enormous volumes of water, and when a joint fails or an outlet blocks, the water does not drip, it pours. Into the building, onto stock, over electrics. Old steel and asbestos cement gutters have joints every few metres and each one is a future leak. Roofline stops the leaks, upgrades the capacity and keeps them clear.

- Joint repairs and resealing
- Outlets, overflows and downpipes resized for the roof area
- Replacement of failed steel, aluminium and asbestos cement gutters
- Siphonic and gravity drainage checked and cleared
- Gutter clearance programmes, spring and autumn
- Fragile-roof safe access for gutter work
Occupiers and owners of industrial and commercial buildings, and the agents managing them, where a gutter failure means stock damage and downtime.
Line, repair or replace
Gutter lining
A seamless GRP or liquid lining laid inside the existing gutter. Removes every joint in one go. The usual answer for steel and concrete gutters that leak at the joints.
Joint and outlet repair
Where the gutter is sound and only a few joints or outlets have failed. Quick, targeted and cheap.
Replacement
For gutters that have corroded through or asbestos cement gutters being removed. New gutters sized to today's rainfall intensities.
Clearance programme
Scheduled clearing of gutters, outlets and downpipes. The single most cost-effective thing you can do for an industrial roof.
Questions we are asked about industrial guttering
Why does my industrial gutter leak at the joints?
Steel and concrete gutters were made in short lengths with sealed or bolted joints, and after decades of thermal movement the seals fail. A lining system makes the gutter one continuous piece and removes the problem rather than resealing it every few years.
How often should industrial gutters be cleared?
Twice a year for most buildings, more where there are trees, pigeons or nearby processes that produce debris. A blocked outlet on a 1,000 square metre roof can put thousands of litres into the building in one storm.
Are my old gutters asbestos?
Grey fibre cement gutters on pre-2000 buildings often are. They must be confirmed by survey and handled under the Control of Asbestos Regulations. We arrange the survey and the safe removal.
Book a site survey
A survey and written condition report is the starting point for every commercial job. It tells you what you have, what it needs and what it will cost, so you can plan and budget properly.
We plan the work so the premises stay operational: phased areas, sealed off zones, dust and noise controlled, and out-of-hours or weekend working where the site needs it.

Tell us about the building and we will arrange a survey at a time that suits the site.
