1. Do you cover all areas of Slough?
Yes — we provide gutter cleaning and repair services throughout Slough, including Langley, Cippenham, Upton, Chalvey, Farnham Royal, and surrounding areas.
2. How often should gutters be cleaned in Slough?
In most parts of Slough, once a year is recommended — especially after autumn when leaves and debris can build up. Heavily wooded areas may need cleaning more frequently.
3. What are the signs my gutters need cleaning?
Overflow during rain, sagging sections, moss around the roofline, or damp marks on the walls are all signs it’s time to book a clean.
4. Is gutter cleaning safe for terraced homes or extensions?
Yes — we use ladders, stabilisers, and extendable tools to safely access all types of homes, including tight spots and rear extensions common in Slough properties.
5. Can you clean gutters on flats or apartment buildings?
Absolutely. We’re equipped to handle multi-storey properties across Slough and work closely with landlords and managing agents.
6. Do you clean commercial gutters too?
Yes — we provide commercial gutter cleaning for offices, schools, retail units, and industrial buildings, including sites on the Slough Trading Estate.
7. What’s included in your gutter cleaning service?
We remove all debris from gutters and downpipes, check for blockages, and test the system for proper water flow. We also flag any issues like loose brackets or joint damage.
8. How much does gutter cleaning cost in Slough?
Prices depend on the property type, size, and ease of access. Quotes are always free, fair, and based on your exact needs — no hidden fees.
9. Do you offer same-day or urgent callouts?
Where possible, yes. If you have an overflowing gutter or urgent drainage issue, we’ll do our best to provide a same-day response.
10. What’s the best time of year to book a gutter clean?
Late autumn and early spring are ideal — after leaves fall or before heavy rainfall. But if your gutters are blocked, it’s best to act immediately.
11. Can blocked gutters cause internal damp?
Yes — overflowing gutters can soak brickwork, which may lead to internal damp patches, mould growth, and plaster damage over time.
12. Do you repair gutters as well as clean them?
We do. From sealing leaks and replacing brackets to realigning sections, we offer professional repairs to keep your system working properly.
13. Do you clean copper gutters?
Yes — we provide specialist copper gutter cleaning using soft, non-abrasive tools that preserve the metal’s finish and performance.
14. Will there be mess left behind?
No — we leave every site tidy and dispose of debris properly. Your property will be left exactly as we found it, just with clear, flowing gutters.
15. Do you use ladders or vacuum systems?
We use a combination, depending on the property. For many homes in Slough, ladders are suitable. For higher or hard-to-reach areas, we use high-reach vacuums or poles.
16. Can I get a quote without a site visit?
Yes — for most homes, we can provide an estimate based on your address and a few basic details. Larger or commercial sites may need an on-site assessment.
17. Do you offer regular maintenance plans?
Yes — we offer scheduled gutter cleaning plans for both homeowners and commercial clients, ideal for avoiding issues before they start.
19. What happens if you find damage while cleaning?
We’ll show you photos, explain what’s needed, and offer a fair quote for the repair — no pressure, and no work done without your approval.
