We clear smaller gutters above porches or bay windows when they are included, as well as the main gutter sections you want cleaned. Show guards, loose joints or other damage before booking so we can discuss what the clean can cover.

Clearing leaves and debris from your gutters
The gutter channels and reachable outlets included with the visit
Part of the gutter
What we do
Straight gutter channels
We clear leaves, twigs and other loose debris from the gutter channels along the front, back or sides you have booked for cleaning.
Leaves in corners
We clear debris around gutter corners and the joins between connected runs. Tell us about any corner that regularly overflows so we know where to look.
Small loose debris
We remove smaller loose debris and dirt collected among the leaves. We work along the gutter sections we can reach, including the areas beside corners and outlets.
Connected sections
We clear connected gutter sections together when they are booked for the clean. Show us where the runs meet, especially around extensions or adjoining roofs.
Reachable outlet openings
We clear debris at reachable outlets where included, along with the channel feeding them. That roof-level opening is different from the full downpipe or underground drainage system.

Gutters on the main building and smaller roofs
Each included roof edge is checked for safe reach before clearing
Building part
What can be cleaned
Front gutters
We clear debris from the front gutter sections included with the building. This covers the listed roof edge, including collected leaves along the channel and at corners.
Rear gutters
We clear the rear sections included after checking how they can be reached. The listed channels receive attention alongside any other gutters chosen around the building.
Side gutters
We clear leaves and debris from side gutters after checking the passage and nearby structures. Tell us if a locked gate or shared entrance needs opening.

What can be cleaned
Extensions
List gutters on an extension alongside the main roof if you want them cleared. A lower roof may have a different outlet and separate sections needing attention.
Porches and bays
We can include the smaller gutters above a porch or bay window. Show their position so those roof edges are considered with the larger runs on the home.
Garages and outbuildings
Tell us about separate buildings you want included, with their roof edges shown. Their gutters are additional to those on the main house and need listing separately.
Gutter Cleaning
Overflowing water and other things to show us
You do not need to diagnose a problem before enquiring
What you notice
How it helps
Water over a straight section
Tell us which side overflows and show the gutter above it. The place where water appears helps us discuss the part you want cleared and its surroundings.
Water near a corner
Show the corner and the channels feeding it. We can discuss clearing those connected parts without treating a leak at a joint as the same thing as leaves.
An outlet concern
Show the outlet and explain what you have seen nearby. This keeps debris at the gutter opening separate from a possible blockage further down a hidden pipe.
A lower gutter filling repeatedly
Show the higher roof or gutter connected with that lower section. The actual arrangement is more useful than guessing why water collects or which part needs other work.
Routine clearing
You can ask for gutter clearing without waiting for an overflow. List the sections, height and way into the property so we can discuss removing the collected debris.
Checking the listed sections, clearing and discussing the result
During the visit
What we do
Look at the building
We check the gutter sections you have asked us to clear. Point out the side or outlet that concerns you and mention any known damage before work begins.
Check how the gutters can be reached
We look at the height and space below the sections included. A conservatory, lower roof or change in ground level can affect a particular part of the building.
Clear the channels
We remove leaves and other collected debris from the gutters booked for cleaning, including corners and connected sections that can be reached.
Clear included outlet areas
We clear loose debris around the gutter outlets we can reach. A blockage further down a pipe needs separate attention and should be mentioned when booking.
Discuss the completed sections
Afterwards, we explain which gutters were cleaned and let you know if we could not reach a particular section. You can ask us about any remaining overflow or visible problem.
Point out a remaining concern
If a visible defect or continuing concern needs separate attention, we explain that distinction. Clearing leaves does not repair a damaged gutter or solve every possible cause of water escape.

Gutter cleaning starting prices
Per-property prices for the listed building examples
Property example
Starting price
What to describe
Ground-floor terraced property
From £54 per property
Show the gutter sections and any extra roofs you want cleared. A porch, extension or garage should be listed separately.
First-floor terraced property
From £76 per property
List the building sides included and show the ground below the gutters, plus the route into any rear garden or yard.
Second-floor terraced property
From £98 per property
Show the gutter height, nearby roofs or structures and any narrow space that affects reaching the sections you want cleared.
Second-floor detached property
From £142 per property
Describe the sides of the detached property and separate roof sections you want included, with their position and the ground below shown.
Other roofs or layouts
Ask for a quotation
Describe the actual building rather than apply one of these examples automatically. Extra sections and different heights need to be discussed.
Guards or difficult sections
Confirm what is included
Mention guards, hidden channels or a pipe concern before booking. We explain the work and complete price for the gutters that can be cleared.
Make the ground and entrances available for the listed sections
Before the visit
What to arrange
Side and rear entrances
Tell us who will open a gate or give entry to the rear yard. Include a separate managed or shared entrance needed to reach the gutters.
Objects below the gutters
Tell us which bins, bicycles, furniture or other loose items you will move. Explain anything that must stay so we know the space available below the gutter.
A wider building photograph
Send a wider view showing the gutter, building height and ground below. Close-up pictures of debris alone do not show how the channel can be reached.
Shared areas
Arrange permission where another person controls a yard or passage needed for the clean. Entry to one home does not necessarily give use of every shared space.
Guards and previous repairs
Mention fitted guards, earlier repairs or difficult corners when enquiring. This helps us understand the gutters as they are before work is arranged at the property.
Changes before the appointment
Update us if building materials, vehicles or new garden structures change the ground space. The cleaner needs the current view, not only an earlier photograph of an empty area.
Gutter Cleaning
Separate work and questions after clearing
Keep gutter debris removal distinct from repairs and hidden drains
Item or question
What to know
Gutter repairs
Replacing damaged guttering, sealing a joint or fitting brackets is repair work. A clean removes leaves and debris rather than renews the parts of the gutter system.
Downpipes and drains
Ask separately about a blocked downpipe or underground drain. Clearing the roof-level channel does not mean that every concealed pipe beyond its outlet has been cleaned.
Fitted guards
Ask about guards before the visit. Removing or refitting them is a separate decision from clearing the debris that can already be reached within the gutter channel.
Roof or building defects
Gutter cleaning does not repair roof tiles or damaged walls. If water is getting into the building, tell us where it appears so we can discuss the gutters without assuming they are the only cause.
Water still appearing
Tell us exactly where water still appears after clearing. A current photograph helps us discuss that section separately from the debris removed elsewhere around the building.
YOUR QUESTIONS
Questions about gutter cleaning in Sidcup
Your gutter cleaning questions
Question
Answer
My gutter has leaves and leaks; will clearing it fix the leak?
Not necessarily. A damaged joint, pipe or roof may still leak after the leaves have been removed.
Does clearing leaves replace a failed gutter seal?
No. Clearing leaves does not replace a failed seal or mend the joint it belongs to.
Should I photograph this outlet separately from the other gutters?
Send photos showing the outlet and the gutter feeding it, rather than only describing another run elsewhere on the roof.
What information helps explain a gutter that is difficult to photograph?
Say which side it is on and what surrounds it, then send the clearest views you can get.
What should I report if overflow continues after the clean?
Tell us where the overflow continues and which gutter or outlet is nearest, with a photo if possible.
