Dear homeowner
Do you have one of the following problems?
- Blocked Gutters?
- Dirty Fascias & Soffits?
Don’t worry, I can help.
- Blocked gutters – In the UK our weather is getting wetter, rain is heavier and storms more frequent. Blocked gutters could potentially cause hundreds of pounds worth of damage. This will not usually be covered by your home insurance as the insurance company may say that it was due to lack of maintenance.
- Dirty fascias and soffits – If you regularly clean PVC gutters fascias and soffits they will last longer. With replacement cost running into thousands for even average size homes, it is more economical to maintain the gutters, fascias and soffits around your home.

Questions about Gutter Cleaning
How do you clean my gutters?
I use a SkyVac system. This is a large vacuum cleaner. I stay on the ground and hold a long pipe made from very light carbon fibre. At the top of the poles I use a series of special tools to remove the debris from your gutter. There are generally no ladders used.
How do I know that my gutters are clean when you have completed the work?
Once the work is finished, I use a camera system to video the inside of the gutters to show you. I will also point out anything else to note like slipped tiles that may bridge the gutters. I don’t recommend and roofing companies or do roof repairs myself so this is a completely independent inspection.
Is there anything that you are not able to remove from the gutters?
I can usually remove most blockages, however very large weeds of two or three feet heigh or small trees of a similar size or larger often have roots that grow into the loft space. If this is the case then I will still charge the quoted price for attempting to remove the item, for the video inspection that follows and for my advice.
What happens to the sludge that you remove from the gutter?
That is yours to keep! If I took the removed sludge away then I would need a waste carriers license. This would increase the fee that we would have to charge. I will always ask where you want the machine emptied. I may use the council green waste bin but other request that I use their compost heap.
Questions about Fascia Cleaning
How do you clean my PVC gutters and fascias?
This is done using our reach and wash system often called water fed pole. I stay at ground level and the water is pumped from my van up to the top of the pole. The brush is a two level brush with soft bristles of the outside and harder bristles on the inside. The water only comes out as a trickle not at high pressure like a pressure washer.
I first clean the gutter, then I clean each and every bracket then the fascia and finally the soffit.
I have a conservatory / extension / veranda. Can you reach over it?
Most of the time yes. I may need to use a small step ladder. I can’t remember a time when I couldn’t clean a gutter due to an extension, conservatory or veranda. I will discuss my method with you before you book. I will not however climb or work from anywhere dangerous.
Will you be able to get all marks off my fascia?
I can remove most marks from your gutters and fascias. If I am unsure then I will clean a small section (test clean) free of charge so that you can make an informed decision based on the results.
Do you clean fascias on the gable end?
Yes, for those unfamiliar with what a gable end is, it’s the triangular upper part of the wall at the end of the roof.
