You need to get who fitted your new guttering back to do the job properly

Hi Georgie
From this paragraph above we would assume that your fall guttering may not be correct, or possibly your downpipe is blocked. If you would like so send some pictures, we would be able to advise further.
Thanks

Hi Georgie
Best advice is to get the person back who completed the job if they have somthing about themselves then it wouldn’t take them long and should not charge. It could just be done to too much water coming from the roof to one gutter or not the right adhesive used to glue the pipes together.

Hi this problem could be different answers. It’s obvious the guttering fall is wrong . Also it depends what end of the gutter is overflowing, if it is on the end stop end the fall of the gutter is completely wrong, if it’s the running outlet end it could be that it’s blocked or they have put the small piece of gutter fall wrong. Nowadays I tend to ask my customers if they want to have the bigger gutter fitted , as the rainfall now is completely different to what it was , and houses can’t cope
