fascia gutter bracket

irishguy

I am trying to get a bracket for my gutters (in Dublin or on the net) they are about 11 years old and they dont seem to be a standard size. I know they are OSMA Model: 7t726w
Approx H 115mm x W100mm

But I cant seem to find any ones of that size any ideas?

I think Brooks sell Osma

goodwins do em. They are a very common bracket, not too sore about size. If your stuck for a bracket you can always put a screw or 2 though the back of the gutter into the facia(if your stuck)

I had a look at the OSMA site and I couldnt see one that would fit. I might call into Brooks and ask them. Thanks.

take off an old bracket and bring it with ya for comparison. (you'll need to take full length of gutter out first to access screw(s))

Client had an old cast iron gutter on her roof 2 years back, the neighbours renewed theirs with a pvc joby and client needed a new bracket on one side. Gutter was about 25 years old so there was no chance or matching.

My remedy was pack the back of the gutter with galvanised strapping folded to pack out. Then I got a 160mm stainless steal wood threaded bolt m6 and I drilled the front and back of the gutter and screwed it in. This may sound cowboyish but the main thing is it served the purpose and the client was happy(I didnt charge just in case) It held the weight better than the brackets.

That said I would be very surprised if you couldnt find a match in a builders providers or even a pvc guttering place. Those osma shaped gutters are as common as dishwater round here (D15) again measurements im unsure of

Just to add to this thread. Apparently OSMA changed their sizing of gutters and down pipes about three years ago. Downpipe sizing went from 70mm to 61mm. I recently had to replace a broken white 90 degree turn and had a major PIA in finding one. Eventually had to settle on a black one (which still awaits a lick of paint to blend in with the existing white downpipe).

According to the well known builders providers that I visited, a lot of folks had to replace guttering and downpipes following the bad snow a couple of years ago. That guttering/downpiping is no longer available and so come the next snow, the unfortunates may face a full replacement with the new sized product

Yes I got one in one of the building providers, but cant remember which one. I could have given you some for free a month ago. Just knocked an extension

Hey guys,
A few of the gutter joints are damaged and leaking so I'll need new ones, specifically a corner joint and a downpipe connector. They're made by osma and freefoam told me that I won't get them anywhere as they're obsolete. Very similar to the ones in the op. Ill try celluplast tomorrow but anyone ideas where else to look in Dublin?
