Replacing rainwater goods on Bath’s Georgian and Victorian homes
When cast iron is corroded through, or a parapet gutter’s lead has reached the end of its life, replacement has to be done sympathetically. Across Bath’s conservation area that means cast iron or cast aluminium on visible elevations, and correctly detailed lead - code 4 or 5, with proper drips and laps - in concealed gutters.

Frequently asked questions
How much is gutter replacement in Bath? A rear uPVC run on a semi starts around £500 to £850. Cast aluminium on a two-storey front is typically £1,300 to £2,200, cast iron more again, and a full parapet gutter re-lead can run well beyond that depending on length and access.
Do I need listed-building consent to replace my gutters? If the building is listed and you are changing material or appearance on a visible elevation, usually yes. Like-for-like cast iron renewal is often permitted - a local specialist will advise and can liaise with the council.
How long does a re-lead take? A single parapet gutter is usually two to four days once scaffold is up, depending on length and how much timber underneath needs replacing.
Windows and doors in Bath - local context
Bath is essentially a Georgian city - Bath stone crescents, terraces and townhouses dominate the centre (Royal Crescent, The Circus, Great Pulteney Street), with Victorian villas in Bathwick and Widcombe.
Dominant era of housing stock: Georgian (18th century) dominant.
Heritage note: The centre is a UNESCO World Heritage Site - any visible roofline work on a Georgian frontage typically requires Listed Building Consent, and gutter replacements have to be cast iron (or an approved cast aluminium equivalent) rather than uPVC.
