Blocked gutters can lead to major water damage to your property if not cleaned out regularly. It is recommended that you have your gutters cleaned twice a year, once in late spring and again in late autumn after the leaves have fallen. This ensures that leaves and debris don’t build up and lead to the growth of moss and mould over the winter months.

Over a period of time, if gutters have been carrying the weight of debris – the gutter will sag from the weight, pulling at the expansion joints and brackets and creating permanent gaps and leakage. This will result in the need for realignment of the guttering or full replacement of gutters.

If gutters are blocked and heavy rain hits, your property could be at risk of flooding as water pushes back into the roof causing severe damage to interior walls.
