Question 1

How do you price a job?

Accepted Answer

By the property, not by the hour. Storeys, the length of gutter, how much rear access there is and what state the runs are in. Send the postcode and a photo of the front and back and you'll have a fixed figure within one working day — that figure is what you pay.

Question 2

How often should gutters be cleared?

Accepted Answer

Annually suits most properties, ideally once the leaves have finished falling in late autumn. Under mature trees — conifers especially — twice a year is more realistic. Commercial sites with flat roofs and box gutters usually need a scheduled arrangement.

Question 3

Do you work from ladders?

Accepted Answer

Sometimes. Gutter clearing is done from the ground with a pole vacuum wherever it reaches, which is most houses and up to three storeys. Where that will not do it, we work off a ladder — two storeys maximum, never higher. Roof washing is done from a mobile scaffold tower rather than ladders leant on the guttering. Repairs and roof moss work need proper access too, and we will tell you which applies to your property before we start.

Question 4

Do you work on commercial and managed blocks?

Accepted Answer

Yes — flats, managed blocks, offices, retail and schools, up to three storeys — that is what the pole reaches from the ground and what we are set up for. Above three storeys is outside what we are set up for, and we would rather say so than turn up and find we cannot reach. For managed sites we can work to a scheduled programme and provide a photo record per visit for your files.
