How much does gutter cleaning cost in Southampton and The New Forest?

Gutter cleaning prices in Southampton typically depend on the size of your property, ease of access and the amount of debris. For a standard 3-bedroom semi-detached home, prices usually range from £80 to £120. Larger detached homes or 3-storey townhouses may cost more due to the extra equipment required.

How often should I have my gutters cleared in the New Forest area?

For most homes in the UK, we recommend a professional gutter clear at least once a year. However, if your property is in an area with many tress (for example Ashurst, Lyndhurst, Brockenhurst and Sherfield English) or your roof has lots of moss, you may require more frequent clearing to prevent moss and leaf blockages.

Do I need to be at home for the gutter cleaning service?

No, you do not need to be home. As long as we have clear access to the perimeter of your property and any gated areas are unlocked, our team can complete the work. We always carry a generator so that even if you do not have outside power we can still use the gutter vacuum. Once finished we will provide an invoice and if required "before and after" photos upon completion.

Can blocked gutters cause damp inside my house?

Yes, absolutely. Blocked gutters are the leading cause of damp in UK homes. When water overflows, it runs down the external brickwork, eventually soaking through to the internal walls. When roof valleys get blocked, water can run under tiles and into the roof and internal walls. Regular maintenance is a small investment that can save you thousands in damp proofing and structural repairs and repairing leaks and redecorating.

What equipment do you use to clean gutters?

We use a high-reach Gutter Vacuum System combined with traditional methods where necessary. This allows us to safely clear gutters on 2nd and 3rd-storey buildings from the ground, ensuring we reach over conservatories and extensions that ladders cannot safely access. We also keep and eye on what we are doing by using a video camera and screen.
