Gutter Cleaning Repairs in Fareham, Hampshire

How do you reach the gutters over a conservatory or a narrow side-access? It’s a question we get asked a lot. While we're happy to get the ladders out for a bit of traditional hand-clearing when needed, we also use advanced SkyVac technology. This high-reach vacuum system allows us to clear out all that rotted silt and leaf mould from the safety of the ground. It’s perfect for those awkward spots above extensions where a ladder just won't go. We don't just clear the straight bits either; we pay close attention to the 'swan necks' and hoppers. These are the spots where blockages love to hide, and if they're not clear, your downpipes will back up the moment the heavens open.

It’s one thing to have clear gutters, but it’s another thing entirely to have them working correctly. Over time, the heavy weight of sodden leaves or a build-up of snow can cause gutter brackets to snap or pull away from the fascia. This leads to sagging, where water pools in the middle of a run instead of flowing towards the downpipe. If you’ve spotted a persistent drip from a joint during a storm, it’s likely a perished seal or a displaced clip. We don't just clear the debris and leave; we’re experts at gutter repairs. From realigning the 'fall' of your gutters so water actually reaches the drain, to sealing leaky joints and replacing broken brackets, we’ll make sure the whole system is watertight.

Sometimes your gutters are working fine, but they just look a bit unloved. In coastal-influenced areas like Fareham and Portchester, the salt air and damp can lead to a nasty build-up of grey grime and green algae on your white uPVC. It really drags down the look of a house, doesn't it? As part of our professional guttering services, we offer a full wash-down of your fascias and soffits. We use eco-friendly cleaning solutions that cut through the dirt without damaging your property or the garden below. It’s a simple way to restore that 'just-installed' look and keep the exterior of your home looking sharp.

If you see water geysering out of the top of a pipe when it rains, the blockage is usually further down. A blocked downpipe can be a real headache because you can't see the problem from the ground. We use specialised tools to snake through the vertical pipes and clear any stubborn obstructions—we’ve found everything from tennis balls to bird nests in there! If the water is reaching the ground but then pooling around your foundations, you might have an issue with a blocked soakaway. Because we’re drainage experts at heart, we can handle everything from the gutter at the roofline right down to the soakaway or main sewer connection, ensuring your property's surface water has a clear path away from your home.
