Although gutter cleaning services sound simple in themselves – someone gets on a ladder to scoop leaves, twigs and other debris from your gutters – many professionals have other services they can provide. 

Whether it’s installing gutter guards, replacing damaged guttering, repainting walls or even trimming back branches, there are plenty of related extras that you can include with your gutter cleaning jobs. 

Gutter guard installation

Gutter guards are a great way to minimise how often you need to have your gutters cleaned. These devices help to keep out leaves, twigs and feathers, allowing your gutters to stay clean for longer. The best time to hire someone to install gutter guards is just after you’ve had them cleaned, so combining the two jobs makes perfect sense. 

Gutter installation

From time to time, gutters need to be replaced. It can be the result of many things, but you’ll find that even once they’re clean, they work a lot better if they’re securely attached to your home. Gutter cleaners have the perfect vantage point to spot early signs of damage and can recommend new gutter installation at the perfect moment. 

Downpipe installation

It’s not just your guttering that can become loose or damaged through neglect, the whole system can be affected over time. Checking with your gutter cleaner to see if they also repair and install downpipes can save you time and money on your overall repair bill. 

Exterior cleaning and painting

If your blocked gutters have overflowed or leaked, then there’s a good chance they’ve left a mark on your home’s walls. Depending on what your house is built of, you may want to hire an exterior wall cleaner or an exterior painter to help spruce up the look of your property.
