How to decide the gutter size?

Some of the things we consider is roof are. Most domestic residences will have a domestic profile and the profile will handle 100 to 200 sqm of roof area which a house has. If you have a commercial roof then we calculate roof area and design the gutter size. Other things we take into consideration is the height of the spouting and how exposed it is to the weather. When really high we choose to put more support with gutter brackets to ensure it does not fail high up as this is more expensive to rectify so we put more support there. Some metal spouting does not do so well when really exposed. Internal gutters on commercial buildings can be very large and require large rain heads that are hand made to order.

Common Faults found on Gutters and Spouting
Too few brackets
Brackets too far apart
Fascia rotten
Corroded
Expansion not taken in to consideration
Not enough downpipes
No fall or falling the wrong way
Down pipes in the wrong place. For example a non plumber will put downpipes where there are no drains to take the storm water this is due to impoper fall in the spouting.
Lack of maintenance. This causes blocked storwater drains and when gutters and spouting over flows sometimes water runs under the building.
