Gutter Cleaning & Repairs
We offer both internal and external gutter cleaning. We would always recommend carrying out before or after the winter months to prevent leaks, blockages and possible repairs.
Internal Gutter Cleaning
This system removes heavy debris by hand for best results or our water jet system for high rise buildings and for projects where a hoist/scaffold is not a viable option.
As part of the service we will also water test the lines and downpipes and report any defects/repairs required in the gutter system. We can also carry out any necessary repairs to complete the job in full. We can also supply and fit the ‘Hedgehog Gutter Brush’ to your gutter system.
The Hedgehog Gutter Brush keeps gutters and drains clear of leaves, twigs, sticks, birds and other wind-blown debris all year round
External Gutter Cleaning
As the pictures above show we also offer a cleaning & treatment service to the green algae that forms on the external surface of gutters, facia & soffits bringing a fresh look back to the property.
We are insured & certified to carry out these works to high rise buildings.
Gutter Refurbishment & Hedgehog System
We can refurb old & weather beaten gutter & downpipes. This product darkens & rejuvenates the gutter & downpipes the surface making it look like new. Please see the pictures alongside. This system is perfect for tired & weather beaten PVC gutters & downpipes.
We can also supply & fit the hedgehog system into existing gutters that stops the leaves & debris entering & blocking up the gutter lines & downpipes.
What Happens If You Never Clean Your Gutters?
Neglecting regular gutter cleaning can lead to various issues for homeowners. When gutters are not cleaned, leaves, debris, and dirt accumulate inside them, causing clogs. These blockages hinder proper water flow during rainfall, which can result in overflowing gutters. This overflow can damage the roof, siding, and foundation of the house due to water seepage. Additionally, stagnant water in clogged gutters can become a breeding ground for mosquitoes and other pests. Gutters that are not properly maintained may also develop rust or corrosion over time, shortening their lifespan. To avoid potential costly repairs or structural damage to your home, it is essential to regularly clean your gutters.
What Is The Best Time To Clean Gutters?
The best time to clean gutters depends on several factors such as climate and foliage in your area. Generally speaking, it is recommended to clean gutters at least twice a year – once in spring after tree pollination and again in late fall after most leaves have fallen. Spring cleaning removes the debris accumulated during winter while fall cleaning prevents blockages before heavy rain or snowfall occurs. However, if you live in an area with a lot of trees or heavy rainfall, more frequent cleaning might be necessary. Additionally, conducting a visual inspection during these cleanings allows you to identify any damage that may require repair. Regular maintenance and timely cleaning ensure the continuous functioning of your gutters throughout the year.
