Gutter cleaning and clearance

Need your gutters cleared in Wincanton?

Leaves, moss and other debris can gradually collect in gutters and make it harder for rainwater to drain away properly. You don't need to climb a ladder to work out exactly what's happening — a few observations from ground level are usually enough to start an enquiry.

Why gutters can become blocked

Gutters are exposed to whatever lands on the roof or is carried by the wind. Leaves, moss, twigs and other debris can build up over time, particularly around properties with nearby trees or roofs where moss is present.

Once enough material collects, water may struggle to reach the downpipe or flow away as intended.

Signs your gutters may need attention

• Water spilling over the edge when it rains
• Moss, leaves, grass or other growth visible in the gutter
• Water appearing to collect in one section
• Staining or repeated wetting on the wall below
• Water overflowing around the top of a downpipe
• Gutters that appear noticeably full or obstructed

Why it is worth getting checked

Overflowing or poorly draining gutters can send rainwater somewhere it wasn't intended to go, including down walls or around the roofline.

That doesn't automatically mean damage has occurred, but a continuing problem is worth having inspected rather than ignored.
