GUTTER & ROOF SERVICES

Gutter cleaning & maintenance

Leaves, moss and silt block gutters and downpipes, causing overflowing water and damp walls. We clear the gutters, check the downpipes run freely and can arrange regular maintenance visits.

We serve Romford, Hornchurch, Upminster and Harold Wood, as well as the wider Essex area from Romford to Benfleet and Grays to Chelmsford, including surrounding towns and villages.

How long does gutter cleaning take?

A typical semi-detached house takes about 2 hours on the day. That is guide time spent working, not how soon we can visit — appointment availability varies.

How often should gutters be cleaned?

Most homes benefit from a clean at least once a year, usually after autumn leaf fall. Homes close to trees may need clearing twice a year.

Why are my gutters overflowing?

The usual causes are a blockage (leaves, moss or silt), a blocked downpipe, a gutter that has lost its fall towards the outlet, or guttering too small for the roof area. Send us a photo and we can usually tell you which.

How much does regular gutter maintenance cost?

We don’t publish set prices. Regular gutter maintenance visit: Repeat gutter clear and check on a typical semi-detached home. Excludes repairs or replacement parts, fascia/soffit washing, special access equipment. Guide working time: around 2 hours. Every job is quoted after photos or a site visit, and the price is agreed with you before any work begins. Call for a quotation, WhatsApp photos or use the online quote form.

How much does downpipe unblocking cost?

We don’t publish set prices. Unblock one accessible downpipe: One accessible pipe reached from ground or ladder; not underground drainage. Excludes underground drainage, replacement pipe, special access equipment. Guide working time: 30–60 minutes. Every job is quoted after photos or a site visit, and the price is agreed with you before any work begins. Call for a quotation, WhatsApp photos or use the online quote form.

Can I send photographs for a quote?

Yes. Send photos on WhatsApp to 07706 066091, or add up to three photos to the quote form. Photos help us understand the problem, though some jobs still need a look in person.

Do I need to be home while the work is done?

For most outside work you do not need to be in, as long as we have safe access to the property, including the rear. We will agree this with you when booking.

Do you offer regular maintenance?

Yes. We can arrange regular gutter cleaning visits so gutters are cleared before problems start. Ask us about a schedule that suits your home.

Do you unblock downpipes?

Yes. We clear downpipes that can be reached from the ground or a ladder, and check them during every gutter clean. Blockages in underground drains need a drainage company.

What if my gutters are hard to reach?

Tell us about three-storey walls, conservatories, extensions or no rear access when you get in touch. Difficult access can mean extra time or equipment, and we include that in your price before any work.
