Gutter Cleaning Worcestershire
Gutter Cleaning Worcester, Worcestershire
We all presume gutter cleaning is not as necessary in built up areas like Worcester, Bromsgrove, Redditch, Kidderminster or Evesham, that rural towns and villages, like Pershore, Tibberton, Crowle or Broadway, will have more moss filled gutters, however throughout Worcestershire, built up, suburban, or rural alike, blocked gutters can and do occur.
None of us every really think about residential gutter cleaning, the only time you realise that your gutters need cleaning, is during heavy periods of rain, when your gutters are unable to cope with the high volume of water and start to overflow. At that point you will have a number of questions, from how much will it cost to clean my gutters? Do we use the latest high reach gutter vacuum systems? What are the benefits of having your gutters cleared? And how often should your gutters be cleaned to ensure they are able to operate efficiently?
From your first contact with us, we clearly outline the cost of gutter cleaning will depend on the average size of your property type, as detailed below. If you have not had your gutters cleaned for a number of years, there may be a small extra charge, as it may take slightly longer to clear the accumulated debris. Our free no-obligation survey, will pick this up and any quote provided, will be the total cost to clean your gutters taking this into account. If you live in a terraced or semi-detached property, we can offer a discounted gutter cleaning price, if adjoining properties are cleared of debris at the same time.
Using the latest high reach gutter vacuum systems, enables us to clean your gutters and gain access to the most difficult to reach areas on your property, all from the safety of the ground, without the need for ladders or other forms of access equipment and on properties up to three storeys high.
Very few of us realise the benefits of regular gutter cleaning. Blocked and overflowing gutters can be responsible for a very high proportion of a property's damp issues. And in many cases can be a significant factor contributing to serious structural problems. Accumulated debris that builds up in gutters, will reduce the life expectancy of gutter joints and brackets due to the increased weight on the guttering system and can result in costly repairs. All major home insurance companies now consider annual gutter cleaning for preventative maintenance a requirement. And on many occasions, insurance companies have turned down claims if gutters have not been cleaned within a reasonable time frame. For that reason, after cleaning your gutters, you will be provided with an invoice for insurance purposes if you ever need to make a claim.
One of the most difficult questions to answer is, how often should your residential gutters be cleaned? If you have not had your gutters cleaned in the last two to three years, then we would say, consider now to be the right time, if you have a build up of moss on your roof, or your property is surrounded by trees or heavy foliage, then annually would always be wise, if the moss build up on your roof is very severe, it would always be worth considering our roof cleaning moss removal and soft wash treatment, which will considerably reduce how often your gutters need to be cleaned. Having your gutters cleaned on a regular basis is all about pro-active maintenance rather then re-active maintenance.

Companies like Aviva will use terminology in their policies such as…
“Property Insurance is designed to indemnify for any losses or damage directly caused by the insured perils specified in the policy. Normal wear and tear is a specific exclusion of most insurance contracts and many claims are rejected on the basis that damage was more directly caused by poor maintenance rather than by an insured peril. Insurance should never be seen as an alternative to good risk management.
Churchill Say…
“Poor upkeep could also seriously affect your claim if the insurer decides that maintenance would have prevented the problem from occurring. That’s why you need to keep your home in tiptop shape, giving it a full MOT after the winter months especially, checking for blocked gutters and loose tiles on the roof.”
Confused.com Say…
“If your home is damaged from water overflowing from a blocked gutter, your insurer may turn down a claim because you should have kept your gutters clear.”
