Gutter cleaning near me in London
Blocked gutters are one of the most common and most preventable property problems in London. A clean once or twice a year stops rainwater spilling down your walls, protects fascias and foundations, and costs much less than repairing damp. We provide ground-based gutter vacuum cleaning across London and the wider Greater London area.
Local homes and gutters
Homes in London are typical of London: Victorian and Edwardian terraces with butterfly roofs and hidden valley gutters, 1930s suburban semis, and converted flats where one gutter run serves several households. Older properties near the centre of London often have shallow half-round or ogee gutters that fill up quickly, while newer estates tend to have deeper square-line uPVC systems with fewer, narrower outlets that block easily.
Rainfall, trees and weather in London
London gets roughly 620 mm of rain a year. London is one of the drier parts of the UK, but summer thunderstorms dump a lot of water in a short time, and soot and grime build up quickly in city gutters. The trees we most often find in London gutters are London planes, limes and garden sycamores, along with moss washed down from the roof tiles. Homes with tall trees nearby usually need cleaning twice a year, in late spring and late autumn.
