SIGNS YOUR GUTTERS NEED CLEANING

Gutters do a quiet job until they don't.

Tell-tale signs they're blocked:

  • Water spilling over the edge in heavy rain instead of running to the downpipe

  • Plants, moss or grass growing out of the gutter

  • Damp patches or staining on the wall below

  • Sagging gutters weighed down with debris

  • Birds nesting, or debris visible from the ground

Left long enough, blocked gutters push water where it shouldn't go — and that's when you get damp, not just a full gutter.

HOW WE CLEAN YOUR GUTTERS

We clear gutters and downpipes using high-reach vacuum equipment from the ground where we can, so there's no need for ladders propped against your walls and no mess trailed through the property.

We clear the full run — gutters and the downpipes they feed — check the water's flowing freely, and tidy up after ourselves. Where access needs a different approach, we'll tell you how we'll do it safely before we start.

WHY BLOCKED GUTTERS ARE WORTH SORTING

A blocked gutter isn't just untidy — it's water going the wrong way. Overflowing gutters run water down the wall, soak into brickwork and cause damp inside. The weight of wet debris can pull guttering loose.

Clearing them once or twice a year — typically after autumn — is far cheaper than fixing the damage a neglected gutter causes. If a downpipe is blocked where it meets the drain, we'll sort that too.

GUTTER CLEANING FAQ's

See a list below of our frequently asked questions from our customers

How often should gutters be cleaned?

For most homes, once or twice a year — late autumn after the leaves drop is the key one. Properties with trees close by may need it more often.

How do you clean gutters safely?

Wherever we can, we use high-reach vacuum equipment from the ground, so there's no ladder against your walls. Where a job needs different access, we'll explain how we'll do it safely first.

What happens if I don't clean my gutters?

Overflowing water runs down the walls and into the brickwork, which leads to damp and, over time, structural damage. The weight of debris can also pull the guttering away from the roofline.

Do you clear the downpipes too?

Yes — gutters and the downpipes they feed, including where a downpipe meets the drain below.

How much does gutter cleaning cost?

There's no call-out charge, and you'll know the fixed price before we start. It depends on the size and height of the property — we'll tell you clearly once we've seen the job.

Do you map where the drains run as well?

Yes. As well as checking the condition inside the pipe, we can trace and map where your drains run, how deep they are and where they connect — useful before an extension, before buying a property, or before any digging. You get a clear map you can keep. Many jobs use both together: map where it is, survey what state it's in.

Do you work with residential and commercial properties?

Yes, we provide drainage services for both residential and commercial customers across Kent & Medway. We work with homeowners, landlords, businesses, restaurants, offices, retail units and industrial properties.

Can you help with overflowing drains and flooding?

Yes, our emergency drainage engineers can respond quickly to overflowing drains, flooding, blocked manholes and sewage backups. We use professional drainage equipment to identify the cause of the issue and restore safe drainage as quickly as possible.

How do I know if I need a CCTV drain survey?

You may need a CCTV drain survey if you experience recurring blocked drains, bad smells, slow drainage, suspected drain damage or ongoing drainage issues that cannot be identified externally. CCTV surveys allow us to inspect the inside of your drains and diagnose problems accurately.

Are your drainage engineers fully insured and qualified?

Yes, all of our drainage engineers are fully insured, experienced and trained to carry out professional drainage services safely and effectively across Kent & Medway.

Do you provide drain repairs?

Yes, we provide professional drain repair services for damaged, cracked and collapsed drains. After identifying the issue, we can recommend the most effective repair solution to restore your drainage system.

How can I prevent blocked drains?

Regular drainage maintenance can help prevent blocked drains. Avoid pouring grease down sinks, dispose of waste correctly, keep gutters clear and arrange routine drain cleaning or CCTV inspections if you experience recurring drainage issues.

My outside drain is blocked — is that my responsibility or the water company's?

It depends where the blockage is. A drain inside your boundary that only serves your property is usually yours; a shared or public sewer is the water company's. We'll tell you which it is when we're there, and point you to the right people if it's not yours.

What if clearing it doesn't fix it for long?

That's a sign the pipe itself needs attention. We'll survey it with a camera and recommend the right repair — root removal, relining or, as a last resort, excavation.
