Gutter Cleaning in Canterbury

We recommend at least once a year, ideally in late autumn after the leaves have fallen. If your property is surrounded by trees or has a moss-prone roof, a second clean in spring is a good idea. Regular clearing prevents blockages and avoids the kind of water damage that ends up costing far more to repair.

The most common signs are water overflowing from the gutters during rain, visible plant growth or weeds sprouting from the guttering, gutters sagging or pulling away from the roofline, damp patches or staining on your external walls, and water pooling around the base of your property. If you notice any of these, it's worth getting your gutters checked sooner rather than later.

Technically, gutter clearance means removing debris from inside the gutters, while gutter cleaning can also refer to washing the outside surfaces.

If you want the outside of your gutters cleaned so they look fresh, that's included in our fascia and soffit cleaning service.

Yes — and it's more common than people think. Blocked gutters cause rainwater to overflow and run down walls, which leads to damp, mould growth, staining on brickwork, and in serious cases, damage to foundations and internal walls. A routine gutter clean once or twice a year is one of the cheapest and most effective ways to protect your home.

Yes. We take away everything we clear from your gutters. You won't be left with bags of debris or mess on your property.
