What’s included with a gutter cleaning?
A proper, professional clean of all gutters and downpipes. If Nathan finds any damage while he’s up there, he’ll let you know what repairs he can offer. Occasionally there may be holes which animals nest in or use to travel. Most often, these are easily patched to prevent damage from pests. We always clean up whatever debris ends up on the ground.
How often should I have my gutters cleaned?
In general, once or twice per year. It really depends on the volume of debris being dropped by trees around the building. Nathan will let you know what condition he finds your gutters in and give you his recommendation based on the building’s surrounds. You can get in touch here.
What happens if I don’t clean my gutters regularly?
Blocked gutters and downpipes can lead to water overflowing into your garden and into your ceiling, causing structural damage and dampness. Debris filled gutters are a known fire hazard. Birds and mosquitoes can use uncleared gutters for nesting and breeding. And, of course, cluttered gutters look untidy.
