Blocked gutters can overflow in heavy rain, letting water run where it should not. Leaf build-up also adds fuel close to the roof line in bushfire-prone parts of Greater Sydney. Regular gutter cleaning keeps water flowing to the downpipes.
What our gutter cleaning service covers
- Removal of leaves, sludge and debris from gutters
- Bagging of debris for disposal
- Flushing gutters and checking downpipe flow where accessible
- Visual check for obvious issues we can report to you
Benefits
- Helps prevent overflow during storms
- Reduces leaf build-up near the roof line
- Pairs well with roof cleaning and solar panel cleaning
How we approach the job
Debris is removed by hand or with gutter tools, bagged, and the gutters are flushed so we can see water flowing to the downpipes. If a downpipe is blocked below ground level, we will let you know, as underground stormwater lines may need a plumber.
Things to know before you book
- Gutter cleaning does not repair rust, leaks or sagging gutters.
- Blocked underground stormwater pipes need a licensed plumber.
- Gutter guard may need to be lifted to clean underneath; please tell us if you have it.
