Weather-dependent for external work. We build margin into every Nottingham booking.
Access assessed at survey. Ladder, tower or scaffold specified based on the specific job and property. Scaffold is specified for: any work requiring safe standing time at height above single-storey level - always itemised in your written quote, never a hidden extra, and we arrange it.
Victorian terraces in Hyson Green and Lenton need rear-access scaffold. Pavement scaffold and skip permits go through Nottingham City Council; allow a few working days on streets like Alfreton Road, Mansfield Road, Radford Boulevard where space is tight.
10-year written workmanship guarantee. Materials carry manufacturer warranties. Transferable.
If a fault appears in covered work, we come back and put it right. No quibbling, no re-charge.
External work with moderate noise. We sheet below the work area and clear debris daily. You do not need to stay home for external work - we just need power and access agreed in advance.
Most work runs year-round. Specific materials may need dry or above-freezing conditions. Trent Valley humidity and East Midlands freeze-thaw cycling.
We have worked across every Nottingham postcode for over 20 years. Gutter Cleaning demands specific knowledge of local housing stock, materials and weather patterns. Properties on the Arnold ridge face different conditions to those in the Trent Valley at Colwick. Victorian terraces in Sherwood need different specifications to 1960s estates in Clifton. We know these differences and specify accordingly.

Sherwood's mature tree canopy along Mansfield Road and Hucknall Road creates the heaviest leaf fall. Properties on Edwards Lane and Haydn Road need twice-yearly cleaning. Mapperley's ridge catches wind-blown leaves from across the valley. Wollaton Park's parkland trees shed across Russell Drive and Middleton Boulevard. The Meadows and Colwick sit in the Trent Valley where damp accelerates compaction of trapped debris into solid blockages that standard cleaning cannot shift.
Full clearance of all gutters by hand. Downpipe flush to confirm free flow. Visual inspection of brackets, seals and fall angles. Written note of any repairs needed. We photograph problems found so you can see them. The inspection is included in the clean price. If repairs are needed, we quote separately. Many cleans reveal no problems at all, and we tell you that honestly.
We offer annual and twice-yearly gutter cleaning packages. Annual cleans are booked in November after peak leaf fall. Twice-yearly cleans add a spring visit to clear winter moss and debris. Package customers receive priority booking, a 10 percent discount on any repairs found, and a reminder call before each visit. Call 0115 670 1242 to set up your schedule.
Every job begins with a thorough inspection from the roof, not from the ground. We check every tile, flashing, valley, ridge line, chimney, gutter, fascia, soffit and roof space timber. You receive a written report with photographs explaining what we found, what needs doing, what can wait, and what it will cost. We never inflate a quote to cover contingencies. If we find additional work during the job, we photograph it, explain it, and get your approval before proceeding. The quoted price is the price you pay unless you authorise extras.
We specify every material for the application and exposure. Stainless steel fixings where iron would corrode within decades. Code 5 lead where code 3 would fatigue within 15 years. Flexible adhesive where cement mortar would crack within 5 winters. Breathable membrane where bituminous felt would trap condensation. These choices add marginally to each job but dramatically extend the interval between repairs. Over 10-20 years, the correct specification is always the cheaper option because the work does not need repeating.

A blocked gutter overflows down the wall face. Within one winter this causes damp penetration, paint failure and mortar erosion. Within two winters the soffit behind the gutter begins to rot. Within three winters the rafter feet are affected. A £100 annual gutter clean prevents £2,000-£5,000 in wall and timber repairs. Every property in Nottingham with mature trees within 15 metres should be on a twice-yearly cleaning schedule without exception.

Working at height without proper equipment is the most common cause of serious injury to UK homeowners. A 3-metre fall from a ladder can cause life-changing injuries. Professional gutter cleaning costs £80-£250 and takes 60-90 minutes. The risk of a DIY injury far outweighs the cost saving. We are HSE compliant with proper ladders, stabilisers and training. We also carry £5 million public liability insurance covering any damage during the clean. Your safety is worth more than the cost of a professional service.
Every gutter clean includes a full downpipe flush to confirm water flows freely to ground level. If a blockage is found below the hopper, we use drain rods or a camera to locate and clear it. Underground drainage connections at the base of the downpipe are the most common hidden blockage point across Nottingham properties. A blocked underground connection causes the downpipe to back up and overflow at the hopper, which looks like a gutter problem but is actually a drainage problem. Our flush catches these before they cause wall damage.
