Gutter Cleaning Services, No Gutter Guard Needed

A gutter clean clears out everything sitting in your gutters: leaf litter, twigs, the black sludge that builds up underneath, and whatever the birds have dragged in. Then we check that water runs along each gutter and out the downpipe the way it should. That's the job, and you don't need gutter guard to book it.

It's the same clean we do before every gutter guard install. Same crew, same care. The only difference is that nothing gets fitted afterwards unless you ask for it.

Got something particular in mind for the clean? Tell us when you book, and we'll say straight whether it's part of the job.

We quote every gutter clean on its own rather than charging one flat rate. The price mostly comes down to the size of your house and how many storeys it has. How full the gutters are matters too. The quote is free, and there's no obligation to go ahead.

Size is the simple one. A bigger house has more metres of gutter to clear, so the job takes longer.

Storeys change the setup. Tell us how many your home has when you ask for a quote, so we turn up ready for the height.

Then there's what's actually in the gutters. A light layer of leaves comes out quickly. A gutter that's been filling for years, packed down into sludge with plants growing out of it, is a much bigger job.

That's why every clean gets its own quote. You'll have the price before we start.

Get your gutters cleaned before storm season, and sooner if you've got gum trees overhead. A summer storm sends a lot of water down the roof in a few minutes. A gutter full of leaves has nowhere to put it, so it goes over the fascia or back under the roof. Our storm season checklist has the full list.

Gum trees drop leaves all year, and palms keep shedding too, so gutters under them fill faster than you'd think. If you can see debris sitting above the gutter edge, or plants growing out of it, you're past due. Our guide to how often gutters need a clean shows how your trees change the answer.

Only if your roof makes it a safe job, and plenty of roofs don't. Gutter cleaning is ladder work. Two-storey gutters sit well out of reach, and on a sloping block the downhill gutter can sit just as high. Old tiles crack underfoot. And wet sludge weighs far more than it looks once you're lifting it off a ladder.
