At RRS Roof Cleaning, we follow a clear and professional step-by-step process to ensure every gutter is cleaned safely and effectively.
1. Initial inspection: check gutters, downpipes, and roofline for blockages,
leaks, or damage.
2. Site preparation: set up ladders, safety equipment, and protective sheets to safeguard property and workers.
3. Removal of debris : clear out leaves, moss, twigs, and any build-up by hand or using specialist tools.
4. Flushing system: run water through
the gutters and downpipes to ensure smooth flow and detect hidden blockages.
5. Minor adjustments : reposition loose brackets, joints, or seals where possible to improve gutter performance.
6. Final check and clean-up: re-inspect
the system, tidy up the site, and provide advice on maintenance or any further
repairs needed.
How often should you clean your gutters?
Gutters should typically be cleaned at least twice a year – once in the spring and once in the autumn – to keep them working properly. However, properties surrounded by trees or in areas prone to heavy rainfall may need more frequent cleaning, sometimes every three to four months, as leaves, moss, and other debris can quickly build up. Regular gutter cleaning helps prevent sudden blockages and ensures that rainwater flows away from your property as it should.
Why should you clean your gutters?
Cleaning your gutters is essential to protect your property from water damage. When gutters become blocked, rainwater overflows and can run down walls, seep into foundations, or cause damp and mould inside your home. Blocked gutters can also become heavy with debris, leading to sagging or damage to brackets and fascias. By keeping your gutters clear, you not only protect the structure of your property but also avoid costly repairs, extend the lifespan of your roofline system, and maintain the overall appearance and value of your home.

How do the gutters get cleaned?
1. Two specialist cleaners use a high power industrial vacuum to collect all the moss, leaves and other vegetation that has collected in the gutter.
This is the most effective way to get all the debris out of your gutters so they run freely.
2. Next the specialist cleaners unblock the down pipes that run down from the high level gutters and remove the debris from the pipes running down from the low level gutters.
3. Lastly an inspection is done of the entire gutter system and any leaking joints are sealed with waterproof sealant.
