Rafter Gutter Brackets

Rafter brackets and spikes provide essential mounting solutions for guttering systems on roofs lacking traditional fascia boards, ensuring secure installation regardless of the roof's structural configuration. These specialized fixings are available in two fundamental types to accommodate different construction scenarios: the first type features brackets that screw directly to either the side or top of roof joists, while the second type is specifically designed for installations where fascia boards are absent and brickwork or stonework extends directly up to the roof tiles. Spike fixings offer an alternative mounting method, being driven into carefully pre-drilled holes to create robust anchor points for the guttering system. Both bracket and spike systems incorporate adjustable mechanisms that allow for precise positioning even after initial fixing, enabling installers to achieve the perfect straight run with the correct fall gradient essential for directing water flow toward the outlet points. This post-installation adjustability proves invaluable for ensuring optimal drainage performance and professional appearance. The extensive range of size options available ensures compatibility with different gutter styles, profiles, and weights, making it possible to find the ideal mounting solution for any specific guttering system and roof configuration, from lightweight domestic installations to heavy-duty commercial applications.
