Zinc work & gutters à Machelen
Hanging gutters, box gutters, downpipes, valleys and flashings in zinc or aluminium. Machelen and Diegem call for two ways of working a few streets apart: single-family houses where the occupants are at home, and company buildings where the work cannot stop.
5 km from our depot in Grimbergen
What that changes here
Under broadleaf trees an ordinary gutter turns into a planter in two autumns. We fit continuous leaf guards rather than just balloon gratings, and often add a downpipe to avoid the long runs that block at the first bend.
Machelen and Diegem form a mixed fabric of residential districts and industrial estates. We work there on single-family houses as much as on warehouses and company flat roofs, with the organisation that goes with it: working outside opening hours and zone by zone.
What we get called out for in Machelen
Machelen and Diegem call for two ways of working a few streets apart: single-family houses where the occupants are at home, and company buildings where the work cannot stop. For the latter we plan zone by zone and outside opening hours; for the former, as anywhere else.
Machelen porte le code postal 1830 et se situe in the northern periphery of Brussels. Notre équipe part de Grimbergen, à 5 km : nous y planifions la zinguerie en même temps que les chantiers de Vilvoorde, Zaventem et Grimbergen, pour qu’un déplacement serve plusieurs toitures.

Pour un devis, la visite à Machelen se fixe en général sous quelques jours ouvrés. Nous partons de Grimbergen, à 5 km, et nous groupons nos visites par secteur : si un chantier tourne déjà cette semaine à Vilvoorde ou Zaventem, cela peut aller plus vite. En cas de fuite active, nous venons d’abord bâcher et sécuriser ; la zinguerie n’est chiffrée qu’ensuite.
In most cases it is undersized, or it serves too much area for a single downpipe. A good Belgian downpour delivers more water than a standard gutter can carry away. The fix is rarely to replace everything: an extra downpipe and resized outlets are usually enough.
Yes, and we recommend it every autumn for houses surrounded by trees. While we are up there we check the brackets, the outlets and the flashings — it is the cheapest moment to find a problem.
