FAQ
Gutter cleaning in Oldham: your questions
Do you charge to come and look?
No. We look at your gutters and give you a fixed written price free of charge. You only pay if you go ahead.
How much does gutter cleaning cost in Oldham?
It depends on the size of the property, how high the gutters are and how easy they are to reach. A terrace costs less than a large detached house with a conservatory in the way. We give you a fixed price before we start, so there is nothing to add at the end.
How often should gutters be cleaned?
Once a year suits most homes. If you have trees close to the house, or a roof that sheds a lot of moss, twice a year is safer: once after the leaves have dropped in late autumn and once in spring.
Do you use ladders or a gutter vacuum?
Both. A gutter vacuum on a long pole lets us clear most gutters from the ground, including over conservatories and extensions. Where a ladder gives a better result, such as packed moss or a blocked outlet, we clear it by hand.
Do you clear the downpipes as well?
Yes. A clean gutter is no use if the downpipe is blocked, so we check each outlet and downpipe is running before we leave.
What are your opening hours?
We are open 7 days a week, 6am to 8pm.
Can you repair a leaking or sagging gutter?
Yes. We reseal leaking joints, replace broken brackets and cracked lengths, and refit gutters that have dropped. If the whole run is past repair we can price a replacement.
Do you clean and replace fascias and soffits?
Yes. We wash green and black staining off uPVC fascias, soffits and gutters, and we repair or replace boards that are rotten, cracked or coming away.
Do I need to be at home?
Not usually. As long as we can get to every side of the property, for example through a side gate, we can do the work while you are out and send you photos when it is done.
Which areas around Oldham do you cover?
From Oldham we cover Werneth, Glodwick, Lees, Hollinwood and the rest of the OL1 area. We also have teams across Manchester and the North West, so if you are a little further out, just ask.
