Limitations & Specialist Requests

We want to be transparent about what we can and cannot cover:

• High‑level and complex access: Work above safe ladder height, over glass roofs, conservatories, or fragile structures may require specialist access platforms or a separate quotation.
• Repairs and replacements: We do not undertake gutter repairs, resealing, or re‑alignment during a standard clean, but we will report issues we find so you can arrange remedial work.
• Asbestos or fragile roofs: We do not access or work from asbestos, fragile, or unsafe roof surfaces.
• Severe blockages underground: If the blockage is below ground level (e.g., drainage runs), a drainage engineer may be required.
• Pigeon guano and heavy contamination: Extensive sanitisation is priced separately due to health and safety measures.
• Extreme overgrowth: Where gutters contain heavy saplings or substantial soil build‑up, we will provide a bespoke quote after assessment.

For non‑standard access or combined services, we’ll scope the job and advise options clearly.

Local Service In North London

We work on a mix of period terraces, modern townhouses, blocks, and commercial sites across North London. Common considerations include tight side access, limited parking, shared downpipes, and extensions with glass roofs. Let us know about any access constraints or parking restrictions in N so we can plan accordingly.

Our teams are familiar with seasonal leaf fall near parks and tree‑lined streets, which can quickly fill gutters and outlets. Regular visits help prevent damp and leaks with gutter cleaning, especially ahead of autumn rains and winter frosts. We can set reminders and schedule maintenance for properties throughout N postcodes.

Quality, Safety & Compliance

• Trained operatives: Teams follow safe working at height practices and use appropriate safety equipment for each site.
• Use of safe access equipment: For awkward sections, we may deploy extendable poles or wet/dry gutter vacuums from ground level to reduce ladder time.
• Risk assessment: On arrival we assess footing, weather, and electrical hazards; work proceeds only when safe.
• Care for your property: We protect landscaping and surfaces and remove debris without leaving mess.
• Responsible disposal: Organic waste from gutters is removed and disposed of responsibly.
• Insurance and documentation: We hold relevant insurance and can provide documentation upon request. Details are available on our insurance page.
• Sustainability: Preventative maintenance reduces water damage and material waste over the long term.

FAQs

How often should gutters be cleaned?
Typically once a year is sufficient for most properties in North London, though homes near large trees may need a visit every 6–9 months, especially before autumn rains.

Can you clear gutters of leaves and moss without accessing the roof?
Yes. In many cases we work from ladders with stabilisers or from the ground using poles and vacuum systems. We choose the safest suitable method for your property.

Do you unblock downpipes for proper drainage?
Yes. Downpipe unblocking is part of our service. If an obstruction is below ground, we’ll advise if a drainage specialist is needed.

Will gutter cleaning prevent leaks?
Regular cleaning helps prevent leaks by keeping joints, outlets, and downpipes free‑flowing. If there is existing damage or failed seals, we’ll flag it so repairs can be arranged.

Do I need to be home during the service?
Not always. If external access is clear and we have permission to use side entrances, we can proceed. We’ll coordinate entry if water access or internal access is required.

What preparation is needed?
Please ensure access routes are clear, pets are secure, and any vehicles are moved away from the working area where possible. Let us know about parking restrictions in N.

Can you provide photos or a report?
Where safe and feasible, yes. We can share before/after images and highlight any issues noted during the clean.

Do you clean fascias and soffits too?
We can wipe down reachable fascias and soffits as an add‑on. For deeper exterior cleaning, consider our pressure washing or fence cleaning services for surrounding areas and surfaces.
