Finding the cause of an overflow
On a tree-lined Gateshead street, a gutter can look clear from below while its outlet is buried in leaves. Watch what happens when it rains: water spilling along the edge suggests a backed-up run, whereas a drip at one joint may need a closer look at the fitting. Tell us where you see water escaping rather than trying to reach the gutter yourself. The camera helps separate a debris problem from a visible defect.
Porches and extensions can hide the back gutter from the pavement. A photograph taken from the garden helps us understand where the poles need to stand and whether there is a clear route round the house. Include any separate garage or conservatory gutter in your enquiry so it is considered with the main roofline.
Clearing takes the leaf litter and the wet material beneath it out of the channel. The outlet matters just as much as the straight stretch: a clean middle section will still overflow if water cannot reach the downpipe. After vacuuming, the footage lets you see the result and any joint or support that deserves attention. For the equipment and approach, read about gutter vac clearing.
