Guttering FAQs
How can I find a good gutter cleaning service near me?
The easiest way is through Hey Alfie. Alfie instantly connects you with trusted local gutter cleaners who are available in your area. You don’t need to spend hours searching online, calling around, or comparing quotes. Just tell Alfie what you need, and we’ll find the right professional for your property. Every job is managed end to end, with transparent pricing, verified reviews, and a £1,000 guarantee for peace of mind.
Why should I use Hey Alfie for gutter cleaning instead of hiring someone directly?
Finding a reliable gutter cleaner yourself can be time consuming and uncertain. You might not know who’s insured, experienced, or genuinely trusted. Hey Alfie removes all that guesswork. We only work with qualified gutter cleaning professionals who meet our quality standards. Alfie manages everything, from booking and payment to after care, so your experience stays stress free. And if anything doesn’t go to plan, our £1,000 guarantee ensures you’re protected and the job gets completed properly.
What does a professional gutter cleaning service include?
A standard gutter cleaning service through Hey Alfie usually includes:
- Clearing out all leaves, moss, dirt, and debris that block water flow
- Unblocking downpipes, elbows, and joints for proper drainage
- Flushing the system to check for leaks and test water flow
- Inspecting for cracks, sagging sections, or loose fittings
- Wiping or washing fascia and soffits where accessible
- Providing before-and-after photos for transparency
If your gutters need minor repairs or replacement parts, Alfie can arrange those too. Everything is managed in one place, so your home stays protected and your gutters work as they should.
How often should I book gutter cleaning?
Most UK homes benefit from gutter cleaning once or twice a year, typically in spring and autumn. Regular maintenance prevents overflowing water, damp patches, and structural damage to walls or foundations. If you live near trees, have a pitched roof, or notice overflowing during heavy rain, you may need cleaning more often. Alfie can even remind you when your next service is due, so you never have to think about it.
How much does gutter cleaning cost in the UK?
The average price for gutter cleaning ranges from £60 to £150, depending on your property type, roof height, and access difficulty. Bungalows are usually at the lower end, while taller or terraced houses can cost a bit more. Factors that affect cost include:
- Length and condition of your gutters
- Whether downpipes or fascia boards need extra work
- Accessibility (for example, ladders vs. vacuum systems)
Hey Alfie always gives you a clear, fixed quote before booking. You’ll never pay extra or face hidden fees.
Do I need to be at home during gutter cleaning?
Not necessarily. Many gutter cleaning jobs can be done safely from outside your property using ladders or long-reach vacuum systems. As long as there’s clear access, you don’t need to be in. Once the work is finished, you’ll receive a report or before and after photos so you can see exactly what was done. Alfie keeps you informed from start to finish.
Will gutter cleaning help prevent leaks and damp?
Yes. Regular gutter cleaning is one of the simplest ways to protect your home from leaks, damp, and water damage. Blocked gutters cause rainwater to overflow, which can damage walls, roofs, and foundations. Clean gutters allow water to drain away safely, reducing the risk of costly repairs later. Alfie helps you stay ahead of problems with reminders and expert advice on seasonal upkeep.
Do gutter cleaners check for damage or make repairs?
Yes. While cleaning, your Alfie approved professional will inspect your gutters for signs of wear and tear: loose joints, cracked seals, rust spots, or sagging sections. If they find a problem, they’ll flag it immediately and offer a straightforward solution. For minor issues, they may be able to repair it during the same visit. For larger problems, Alfie can arrange a specialist to carry out the work safely.
What happens after I book my gutter cleaning service?
Once you book through Hey Alfie, you’ll get a confirmation with your cleaner’s details, arrival time, and price summary. Your cleaner will arrive on time, complete the service efficiently, and tidy up after themselves. You’ll only pay securely once the work is finished to your satisfaction. Alfie manages your booking from start to finish, scheduling, updates, payment, and your digital record for next time.
What if I’m not happy with the service?
If something doesn’t go as planned, you’re fully protected by Hey Alfie’s £1,000 guarantee. We’ll review the issue quickly and, if needed, send another trusted gutter cleaner to put things right. You’ll never be left chasing tradespeople or worrying about unfinished work, Alfie handles it all for you.
Can I schedule regular gutter cleaning with Hey Alfie?
Absolutely. Regular maintenance is the best way to prevent leaks and damage. Alfie can set reminders or automatically rebook your preferred cleaner every six or twelve months, depending on your property’s needs. You can even manage all your home maintenance tasks, from gutter cleaning to boiler servicing, in one place.
