Gutter Slope/Fall Calculator

Proper drainage measurements for your guttering.

The correct fall on your guttering is vital for proper drainage. Too flat/shallow and the rainfall won't drain quickly enough. Too steep and the distance from the roofline may be too great.

By simply entering your gutter length into our calculator you can work out the optimum fall to ensure adequate water flow and drainage.
