Available for Emergency Gutter Clearing and Cleaning


Dirty, choked, or blocked gutters are a common problem, particularly in busy UK cities such as London and others. As seasons change, leaves and other materials along with dust, dirt, and debris get blown onto roofs and eventually drain down the gutters and downpipes when the autumn season arrives. As more dirt and debris collect up, it can cause your gutter to get clogged, and this is the start of many problems down the line!

Roof Doctor has specialized equipment and tools as well as tradespeople that are expert rooftop and gutter cleaners. They can clean away all kinds of dirt and debris from your gutters, which includes fixing/replacing any guttering and downpipes which have broken down due to months of blockages.

Regular cleaning and checkups are the best way to keep your gutters and downpipes running smoothly. As the weather changes from season to season, the last thing you want to deal with is a ‘gutter-related situation’. Roof Doctor takes all the worry off your hands with its expert rooftop gutter cleaning services.

What happens when you don’t clean your gutters on time


If you allow enough moss, leaf litter, and other debris to accumulate in your gutters and downpipes, you will eventually have a blockage. Under ideal circumstances, you’d want to avoid this at all costs, because it could also mean repairing or replacing gutters and downpipes in a worst-case scenario.

Unfortunately, many people do not get their gutters and downpipes cleaned on time or inspected regularly. Here’s what happens if you don’t clean your gutters on time:

Moisture, water, dirt, and other kinds of debris that get soaked over time will build up causing a blockage. This puts far too much pressure on the gutter and downpipe joints. This extra weight can cause sections of your gutter to sag, joints to become loose or even open, and support fixings to either weaken, crack or become completely loose. The longer the problem ‘cooks in the pot’, the more repair and cleaning costs you are looking at.

That’s not the end of your problems, however. The rainwater is no longer getting drained away which means it will overflow on top of the guttering and cascade down that lovely brickwork. If you see any signs of moss and algae on your brickwork, that’s a sure sign that your gutter is overflowing.

This causes dampness eventually if you don’t get the gutters cleared. We’ve even seen the structural integrity of some properties reduced dramatically because of this. As a homeowner, you need to act fast if you feel that your gutters and downpipes are not working as intended. Even if everything appears to be running smoothly, there’s no harm in getting regular check-ups and scheduled cleaning to ensure that you don’t have to deal with any unnecessary repair costs in the future.

Roof Doctor is entirely trade accredited and guarantees tradesmen workmanship for up to __ months. We are also available for emergency gutter clearing and cleaning. Call us now – our team would be happy to conduct a free initial survey and quote you a price.
