Local context

Sligo gutters have to cope with serious volumes of water.

It is not the debris on its own that causes the damage here — it is debris combined with the rainfall this coast gets. A partially blocked run that would cope inland will overflow in Sligo, and wind off the Atlantic drives that overflow straight back against the fascia and wall rather than letting it fall clear.

We clear gutters across the county — Sligo Town, Strandhill, Rosses Point, Ballymote, Tubbercurry, Collooney and Enniscrone — and flush the run afterwards so you know it actually drains, not just that it looks clear from the ground.

01 — What's included

What the job actually covers

Quoted as a fixed price before booking. No hidden extras, no day-rate creep.

  • Gutters, outlets, hoppers and downpipes cleared
  • Debris bagged and removed from site, not left in the beds
  • Joints, brackets and falls checked for leaks or sagging
  • Full run flushed and tested with water
  • Written fixed price, valid for 30 days
Why it's done this way

A blocked gutter is a slow, expensive problem. Water backs over the edge, tracks down the render, saturates the fascia and sits against the foundation. By the time staining shows on the wall the damage has usually been running for a season or more. Clearing is the cheap part; catching a dropped bracket or a failed joint while we are up there is the valuable part.

02 — Process

Four stages, every visit

A

Clear

05 — FAQ

Questions we get on this job

How often should gutters be cleared?

Once a year for most properties. Under trees, twice — autumn and late spring.

Do you work from a ladder or a pole?

Whichever is safer for the property. Vacuum poles for most two-storey runs, ladders where access allows and the work needs hands on.

Will you tell me if something is broken?

Yes. Failed joints, dropped brackets and rotting fascia are photographed and reported with the completion note.

Do you take the debris away?

Yes. It is bagged and removed, not dropped into the flowerbeds.
