Gutter cleaning with access considered in advance
For properties in Crystal Palace, conservatories, extensions, locked side gates and narrow passages can all affect how the roofline is reached. Knowing about them beforehand avoids relying on assumptions.
Send photographs of each side that needs attention and mention any section that cannot be seen easily. We can then plan the pole setup and give a clearer quotation.

Gutters, outlets and downpipes
Clearing the visible channel is important, but rainwater also needs an open route into the downpipe.
Outlet area
Extra attention is given to the point where the gutter feeds the downpipe because compacted material often gathers there.
Further faults
A blockage below the accessible section or a damaged fitting may need separate work, which is explained if identified.
What happens during a gutter cleaning visit
This short video shows the high-reach vacuum equipment used to remove moss, leaves and other debris from a gutter line.
Access, extensions and the height of the property are considered before work begins, with additional repair needs discussed separately.
> Our step by step process <
Access to electric will be necessary
We just need a nearby socket (and our trusty extension leads) to power up, so your gutters get a smooth, uninterrupted clean without any tech hiccups.
Set Up Our Gutter Hoover: The Sky-Vac
With shoe covers on, we'll wheel in the compacted Sky-Vac and position it to reach gutters up to four storeys high. No scaffolding required.
Deep-Clean Gutters & Test Downpipe Airflow
Our high-powered vacuum whisks away moss, leaves and debris, then we run an airflow check to make sure every downpipe is clear.
Safe Ladder Access for Stubborn Blockages
If debris hides out of reach, our ladders help us get the job done, always with safety measures in place for your peace of mind.
Minor Gutter Repairs & Pricing
Loose clips, dropped sections or minor fixes generally start at £25 plus parts. We'll explain any extra work upfront, so you know exactly what to expect.
Perimeter Debris Sweep & Final Inspection
Before we leave, we'll sweep up any fallen debris and do one last walk around to ensure everything looks neat.
Secure Card & Online Payment
Once your gutters are clean, we can take card payment on the spot. If you're unavailable, arrange a secure advance payment and we'll handle the rest.

Our industrial gutter vacuum is designed for efficient, mess-free gutter cleaning from ground level. It's powerful enough to dislodge wet leaves, moss, and stubborn debris while keeping the surroundings completely clean. This keeps our operators safe and compliant with health and safety regulations.
- 8-Metre Reach Sky Vac: Carbon-fibre poles allow us to reach up to four storeys high. Even at this height, moss and debris clearance is easy with the combination of a powerful three-engined vacuum and a skilled operator.
- Safe Ladder Access: When more reach is needed, we use ladders responsibly and only when appropriate. If you suspect a gutter repair with poor access, let us know in advance so we can plan before the visit.

Drone Roofline Checks
For tall or complex properties, we offer drone inspections to assess your roofline and guttering from above. This lets us identify blockages, cracks, or debris build-up without ladders or scaffolding.

- Safe inspections for multi-storey buildings
- Post-clean flow testing included as standard
