Why autumn is the best time for gutters

Key takeaways
Clear gutters after the leaves have fallen.
Blocked gutters cause damp walls and stains.
Check downpipes flow freely too.
Gutters are easy to forget until water pours over the edge in a storm. Timing your clean right saves you from doing it twice.
Wait for the leaves
Cleaning in early autumn often means doing it again a month later. Wait until most leaves have dropped, then clear everything in one go.
Why it matters
Overflowing water stains walls and feeds algae.
Standing water rots fascias and soffits.
Blocked downpipes can freeze and crack.
We clear gutters by hand, flush every downpipe and send photos so you can see the job is done.
