Guttering & Fascia FAQ's
My roof, fence or gutter has small rust like spots on it. What are these and how can I remove them?
Swarf is the term given to steel debris that is created during cutting or drilling operations when your roof is being installed. Swarf particles can corrode rapidly and cause unsightly stains that will detract from the appearance of the roof. Prevention of swarf staining is the responsibility of the installer and following trades. Care should always be taken to properly clean up any swarf created during the installation process by blowing, vacuuming, sweeping or rinsing the roof to remove loose particles. For more information, please refer to Technical Bulletin TB-05 - Swarf Staining.
