Blocked gutters send water straight over the edge and into your eaves. We clear the gutters and the downpipes, check the fall, and leave the roof ready for the next downpour.
A gutter full of leaves and grit stops being a gutter. Water backs up behind the blockage, spills over the front, and runs down the fascia and into the eaves instead of out to the downpipe. On a tile roof it can also push water back under the first row of tiles, which is how a blocked gutter quietly turns into a ceiling stain.
A proper clean is not scooping the visible debris out of the run and calling it done. We clear the gutters and the downpipes, flush the system through so we know the water actually reaches the ground, and check that the gutter still falls the way it should. If we find rust, splits or a sagging run while we are up there, we will show you a photo and tell you straight, without turning it into a sales pitch.
There is no honest flat rate for this job, and anyone who quotes you one over the phone has not looked at your roof. Here is what actually moves the number.
A clean is priced by the run, so the perimeter of the house is where it starts.
Height decides the ladder and harness work, and it is the biggest single swing on the price of a clean.
A gutter cleared every year is quick. One that has not been touched in five, packed with compacted silt and seedlings, takes considerably longer.
Gums, paperbarks and anything that drops needles fill a gutter far faster than a clear roofline, and they usually mean the downpipes need proper attention too.
If any of these sound like your place, it is worth getting looked at before the next big rain. Spotting it early is almost always the cheaper repair.
No sales visit, no pressure, and no work starts before you have seen a fixed written price.
Leaves, grit and silt come out of the run and into a bag. Not flicked onto the roof, not dropped into your garden beds.
A clean gutter feeding a blocked downpipe still overflows. We clear the downpipes and run water through to prove they drain.
We look at whether the gutter still falls to the downpipe. A run that has sagged holds water no matter how clean it is, and that is what rusts it out from the inside.
Rust, splits, loose brackets, rotted fascia. Photos and an honest opinion, with no pressure to book anything on the spot.
You will get Harrison or one of the family on the phone, not a call centre and not a salesperson. Tell us what the roof is doing and we will tell you straight what it needs.

Call 0409 388 158Twice a year for most Sydney homes, and more often with overhanging trees. The one that matters most is the clean before storm season, because a blocked gutter in heavy rain sends water straight into your eaves.
Yes. A clear gutter feeding a blocked downpipe still overflows, so clearing one without the other is not a real clean. We flush the whole system through before we leave.
It comes down to the metres of gutter, whether the house is single or double storey, and how long it has been since the last one. You get one fixed price before we start, and it does not change once we are up there.
Yes, and it is one of the most common causes we get called to. Water backing up behind a blockage can push under the first row of tiles or spill into the eaves, and that shows up as a stain on the ceiling or bubbling paint on the wall below.
No. The debris comes off the roof in bags rather than over the side, and anything that has marked the paths or the walls gets hosed down before we go.
