Blocked gutters cause more expensive damage than almost anything else on a house. Water overtops, runs down the wall, saturates the render and the brickwork and eventually finds its way inside. We clear gutters, hoppers and downpipes from ground level with vacuum systems and from height where access allows, then flow test every run and show you the footage.

What is included

  • Ground level vacuum clearing
  • Downpipes and hoppers flushed
  • Flow tested before we leave
  • Drone and camera inspection footage
  • Fascia and soffit wash available
  • Two storey and three storey properties

What actually blocks a gutter

Leaf litter is the obvious one, but the real culprits are moss washed off the roof, roofing grit from ageing concrete tiles, and nesting material. That mix compacts into a solid plug at the outlet, which is why a gutter can look clear from the ground and still be holding water. Our drone footage shows you exactly what is sitting in the run.

Flow testing

Clearing is only half the job. We run water through every gutter and downpipe afterwards to confirm it drains properly, because a clear gutter feeding a blocked downpipe or a silted gully will still overflow. If we find a fall problem or a broken joint, we photograph it and tell you.

Combined with roof work

If you are having the roof cleaned, gutter clearing is included. If gutters are all you need, we can usually do it same week, and it is by far the cheapest maintenance job on a house relative to the damage it prevents.

Gutter Clearing questions

Also worth doing

Most people book two or three of these together

Cleaning the roof and leaving the drive and gutters is a false economy, because the run off from one lands on the other. Combined jobs are quoted as one visit.
