Gutter Cleaning in Alton

Gutter cleaning in Alton to clear moss, leaves and grit from gutters, valleys and downpipes. Overflowing gutters soak the wall below and bring damp inside. Most homes need clearing once a year.

What Blocked Gutters Do to a House

Water that cannot reach the downpipe spills over the front edge and runs down the wall. Do that for a few winters and the wall stays wet, the pointing softens and damp shows up inside. Clearing the gutter is far cheaper than fixing the wall.

When to Get Gutters Cleared

Late autumn is best, once the leaves are down. Watch your gutters in the next heavy rain. If water pours over the edge or the downpipe stays dry, they are blocked. Overflow marks on the wall below the gutter are another giveaway.

How We Clear and Check Them

We clear the gutter by hand or by vacuum, flush it through to the drain and check the joints and brackets while we are there. If a joint is leaking or a bracket has come loose, we tell you and price the repair separately.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does gutter cleaning cost in Alton?

It depends on the size of the property, the length of guttering and whether the gutters can be reached safely from a ladder. Bungalows and terraced homes cost less than large detached houses. We give a fixed price before we start.

Do you clear the downpipes too?

Yes. Clearing the gutter and leaving a blocked downpipe just moves the problem. We flush the pipes through and check the water is reaching the drain at the bottom. If a pipe is blocked solid, we take it apart to clear it.

Can gutter guards stop the blockages?

They help with leaves but not with moss and grit, which still wash off the roof and settle underneath. Guards also make the gutter harder to clear when it does block. We usually suggest a yearly clean instead.
