Frequently Asked
How often should gutters be cleaned?
Twice a year is the standard recommendation — spring to clear winter debris and autumn after the leaves have fallen. Coastal properties with nearby trees can need it more frequently.
Do you check the fascia and soffit as part of the job?
Yes. While clearing the gutters we check the condition of the fascia boards and soffit panels. Any splits, rot or paint failure is noted and flagged at no extra charge.
Do you clear downpipes as well?
Yes. Downpipe blockages are checked and cleared as part of the standard clean. Outlet connections and elbow joints are also inspected.
Do you do gutter cleaning in Herne Bay?
Yes. Herne Bay and Whitstable primarily, including Tankerton, Seasalter, Swalecliffe and surrounding villages. Coastal damp means moss and algae build up faster than inland.
