Williamstown Roofing & Weather Profile

What We See in Williamstown

Leaf matter sitting in a wet gutter for extended periods produces tannic acid, which is aggressive to both steel and aluminium gutter sections. The dark staining below the gutter lip on an older home is typically tannic acid leaching through corroded metal.

Why It Happens

Leaf matter in a wet gutter undergoes anaerobic decomposition, producing organic acids — primarily tannic and humic acids — that lower the pH of the standing water to levels corrosive to zinc-coated steel and aluminium. Gutter materials corrode faster under a leaf load than when running clean.

How We Fix It

Expansion joints are installed in guard runs longer than 8 to 10 metres of continuous aluminium. Thermal expansion over a long run in Melbourne's climate creates enough force to deform the guard or open the clip attachment if expansion is not accommodated.

"True Roof fixed a leak that three other companies couldn't find. Incredibly thorough inspection, identified the real cause and repaired it properly. No more ceiling stains. Five stars, easy."

"Got three quotes. True Roof wasn't the cheapest but was clearly the most professional. 10-year warranty sealed the deal. 6 months later, not a single issue."
