Loughor, a town at the gateway to Swansea, is known for its historic castle ruins and riverside setting. While it's a beautiful place to live, the combination of heavy rainfall, coastal weather and leafy surroundings can take a toll on properties. Gutters are a crucial part of your home's protection, directing rainwater away from walls, roofs and foundations. When they become blocked, cracked or loose, they stop working effectively, leaving your property at risk of damp, mould and structural problems.
Cardiff Guttering provides professional gutter cleaning, repair and replacement services across Glamorgan, including Loughor and nearby areas such as Gorseinon, Pontarddulais and Penclawdd.

Why Gutters Matter
Every roof in Loughor channels thousands of litres of water each year. Gutters are designed to carry this flow into drains, keeping it away from walls and foundations. When they fail, problems quickly appear:
- Water staining and damaging exterior walls
- Damp patches and mould forming indoors
- Rotten fascias, soffits and roof timbers
- Long-term risks to foundations from pooling water
Routine gutter care is one of the simplest ways to prevent these issues.
Safe and Thorough Gutter Cleaning
Loughor's location near the coast and the Gower Peninsula means homes often face high winds and falling debris. Moss, twigs and leaves can quickly block the system, preventing water from draining properly. Once clogged, gutters overflow, and damage follows soon after.
Our professional gutter cleaning service removes all debris and restores your system to full working order. Using secure ladders, harnesses and specialist tools, our team works safely and thoroughly. While cleaning, we also carry out a visual inspection so you're aware of any early signs of wear that may need attention.
Although some residents attempt DIY gutter cleaning, it can be risky without the right equipment and often leaves debris behind. Professional cleaning ensures the job is done safely and effectively.
Dependable Repairs for Lasting Results
Even with regular cleaning, gutters sometimes need repair. Leaks, cracks and loose brackets are common problems that reduce performance. Cardiff Guttering provides reliable repairs in Loughor, including:
- Sealing leaking joints
- Replacing broken or cracked sections
- Clearing and repairing downpipes
- Securing sagging or detached brackets
We work with all common systems, including uPVC, aluminium and cast iron, providing long-lasting solutions.
Replacement Systems for Peace of Mind
If your gutters are old, corroded or failing repeatedly, replacement may be the most cost-effective option. Cardiff Guttering installs modern, durable systems designed to cope with heavy Welsh rainfall and coastal weather.
Our replacement systems are available in a variety of colours and profiles, so you can choose an option that complements your property while providing dependable protection for years to come.
What Happens If Gutters Are Neglected
It's easy to forget about gutters until water overflows during a storm. By then, however, damage may already be happening. Neglected gutters can cause:
- Damp and mould spreading indoors
- Exterior paint and plasterwork being ruined
- Roof timbers weakening from excess moisture
- Foundations being undermined by standing water
Preventative care is always more affordable and less stressful than dealing with damage later.
