Do you fit gutter guards or covers?

Our core service is vacuum clearance and inspection rather than fitting guards, but if a property would clearly benefit from them we'll say so and point you in the right direction.

How far do you travel for gutter cleaning jobs?

We're based in Washington and cover roughly a 45-mile radius across the North East, so most of the region is within our normal working area.

Can you clear gutters and hoppers on flat-roof extensions?

Yes, flat-roof sections and hoppers are cleared as part of the same visit where they're accessible from ground level with the pole system.

When do I pay, and how?

Payment is taken once the job's complete and you've had a chance to see the before-and-after photos. We'll agree the method with you when booking.

Our vacuum system does the same job from the ground, reaching up to three storeys with a camera to check the work. Even Shilbottle's exposure to weather blowing in off the coast, roughly 12.3 miles away, doesn't change the approach — it just means we check the gutters a little more often.

Autumn is when gutters in Shilbottle take the biggest hit. Leaves come down faster than most people realise, and it only takes a couple of weeks of wet, windblown foliage to turn a free-flowing gutter into a standing trough of sludge sat right above your walls.

Blocked gutters rarely announce themselves until the damage is already underway. A downpipe that gurgles instead of draining, a dark damp patch creeping under the eaves, moss taking hold in a fascia board that's stayed wet too long — these are the quiet symptoms of gutters that haven't been cleared in a while.

1960s and 1970s Estate Housing

Estates built through this period tend to have plastic guttering that's now on its second or third decade, with joints and unions that were never designed to be maintenance-free forever. Silt sitting in these runs for long spells softens the seals faster than most owners expect.

The uniform roof lines across an estate also mean if one house is overdue a clean, the neighbours usually are too — moss spreads gutter to gutter along a run of similar-pitched roofs. A vacuum clean clears the debris and lets us check those plastic joints are still sealing properly.

Homeowners

For Period Property Owners

Older and period properties in Shilbottle often carry a mix of original and replacement guttering, and the two don't always behave the same way. We check both as part of the clean, and flag anything on the original ironwork that looks like it's reaching the end of its working life, so you can plan for it rather than be caught out by it.

What You're Left With

At the end of a visit you get gutters that are genuinely clear — not just tidied at the visible front edge — with downpipes checked and confirmed to be running freely.

You also get before-and-after photos and, where relevant, short video from the pole camera, so you can see the difference rather than take our word for it.

If anything looks like it needs attention beyond a clean — a loose bracket, a cracked union, a section holding water — we'll point it out on the spot so you know what's coming next, if anything.
