Gutter Cleaning in Exeter

Exeter is one of the wetter cities in the South West, and blocked guttering simply cannot cope with that volume of rainfall. When water has nowhere to drain, it overflows and works into walls, fascia boards and – over time – the interior of your home. Add in the leaf fall from Exeter’s many mature, tree-lined streets, and gutters here block up faster than most. A clean twice a year is a small outlay compared to the repair bills that neglected guttering
can generate.

Keep an eye out for the following:

• Water spilling over the gutters during rainfall
• Sagging or detached sections of guttering
• Moss, weeds, or plants growing in the gutter run
• Damp patches or staining on exterior walls
• Birds or insects nesting around the roofline

If your Exeter property is showing any of these signs, it’s time to book a clean.

Twice a year is our standard recommendation –  spring and late autumn tend to work best. That said, Exeter’s relatively high rainfall and abundance of mature trees mean gutters here can block more quickly than in other parts of
the country. If your property backs onto a park or wooded area, a third visit during the year may be worth considering.

Yes – we work with all common guttering materials, including uPVC, aluminium, cast iron, timber, and modern seamless systems. Whether you have a newer build on the outskirts of Exeter or an older period property closer to the city centre, we’ve got it covered. Downpipes are included as standard, and soffit and fascia cleaning is available at an
additional cost.

We are SSIP registered and all operatives are IPAF certified for working at height. Depending on your property’s requirements, we use harnesses, secured ladder systems, or scaffolding. For commercial gutter cleaning in Exeter, we are also PASMA certified. Every job is carried out in full accordance with current health and safety regulations.

Most residential jobs in Exeter take between 30 minutes and two hours. A standard terraced or semi-detached home is typically finished within the hour, while larger or more complex properties may take a little longer. We’ll always give you a realistic time estimate when you book.

We work in most conditions, but we won’t operate in high winds or icy weather where there’s a risk to our team. If a rescheduled is needed, we’ll contact you promptly and arrange a new date at your convenience. You’ll always be kept
informed.

No –  all work is carried out externally. We only need safe access around the outside of your property, so there’s no need to be home on the day. As long as we can reach the guttering, we’ll get the job done and make sure you’re updated afterwards.
