Looks like we need to have our guttering replaced. Anyone with recommendations for companies/individuals to do this?
Happy to pay a fair price but don't want to be pantsed (again).

I done it myself Kahuna without too many difficulties...

The actual gutter doesnt cost that much at all, and it available from Stratco or Fielders..

Just sent you a PM with the number for MS Ironworks. They only do guttering.

In Melbourne my trustworthy local handyman got seconds from a local source and did it cheaply.
I couldn't see much fault in the seconds - just the odd minor dent or scratch easy to touch up..

He also knew about not mixing Zincalume and Colourbond and using the right pop rivets for the material, which not all do - or don't bother about.
[Which was where the problem had arisen from in the first place.]

Don't use Complete Home Transformations - the one KG spruiks on TV - as my mate got some guttering done through them before Christmas and they stuffed it up 3 times only to just recently supply what was initially ordered and not damaged.

After all the stress and hassle it caused my mate and his wife, they ended up getting a $150 discount !!!

Check the Messenger

The local blokes are usually a lot cheaper and do a better job

They know that its their local area and word of mouth is the best advertising
