Gutter cleaning in Dartford clears leaves, moss and grit from the run and the downpipe. Most overflowing gutters are not broken, just blocked, and clearing them is far cheaper than dealing with damp walls later.

Clearing the gutter is only half the job. Debris washes to the outlet and packs into the top of the downpipe, so the run backs up again within weeks. We clear the downpipe as well and flush the system through to check the water is reaching the drain.
More Information
Most of what ends up in a gutter comes off the roof, not out of the trees. Moss growing on tiles breaks away in heavy rain and washes into the run. If your gutter fills every year, the roof is usually worth looking at while we are up there.
Late autumn, once the leaves are down, is the ideal time. Doing it before winter means the gutter is clear for the heaviest rain of the year. Houses with trees overhanging often need a second visit in spring after blossom and seeds have come down.
Gutter cleaning is the smallest job we do and the one that prevents the most expensive problems. Heritage Roofing and Renovations cleans gutters across Dartford and Kent alongside our roofing work, so if we spot a cracked tile or a dropped bracket while we are up there, we will tell you rather than leaving it.
STILL NOT SURE?
It depends on the size of the house, how many storeys there are and how easy the run is to reach. A standard terrace or semi is at the lower end. Awkward rear access needing a tower costs more. We quote for the whole house rather than by the metre.
It depends on the property. Vacuum systems work well from ground level on straightforward runs, while ladders or a tower let us see inside the gutter and check the brackets and joints properly. We choose the method that suits the house and does the job safely.
Water overflows down the wall instead of draining away. Over time that soaks the brickwork, causes damp inside and rots the fascia behind the gutter. The weight of a gutter packed with wet debris also pulls the brackets loose, so the run starts sagging.
