Replace metal guttering with plastic or patch metal.

Kapiti Coast

Single storey house , easy access, 90sq mtr ,oblong house. Rusted guttering needs patching or removing in places.. This guttering wasn't installed to match the shift in level of 60 yr old house.i.e needs realignment. Most is ok , just rusty where water's been lying. Another alternative is put plastic around half the house, over doorways and deck, and leave rest without gutters,because rain runs onto sand anyway. Local tradesmen please-Kapiti based.
