The Roof & Gutter Cleaning Company
How often should gutters be cleaned?

For most homes, once a year is enough. Properties near trees often benefit from a spring and autumn clean. Commercial sites vary with the building and surroundings, so we advise on a schedule after seeing the site.

What is included in a gutter clearance?

We remove leaves, moss, silt and general debris from the gutters, check the outlets and bag the waste. The exact scope, access and any exclusions are confirmed in your quotation.

Can you clear blocked downpipes?

Yes, where they are accessible and it is appropriate. Some blockages, such as those below ground, may need a drainage specialist; we will tell you if that is the case.

What is roof moss removal?

Moss is carefully removed from the roof covering by hand or with suitable tools for that roof type. We do not use high-pressure washing as a default.

What does a biocide treatment do?

A biocide is applied to remaining organic growth such as moss spores, lichen and algae. It helps kill off growth and slow regrowth.

Will moss disappear immediately after treatment?

Not always. Many biocide treatments work gradually over weeks or months, depending on the product, the weather and how much growth there was.

Can you clean commercial roofs?

Yes. We quote for offices, industrial units, retail premises, schools and managed buildings. Methods and access are planned around the site.

Do you work with property management companies?

Yes. We welcome enquiries from managing agents, facilities teams and landlords, for single buildings or portfolios.

Can you quote for several properties at once?

Yes. Send us the addresses or a list of sites and we can prepare a combined quotation.

Do you use access equipment?

Most gutters are cleared from the ground with a gutter vacuum. Where a job needs ladders, towers or powered access, this is planned and included in the quotation.

How much does roof cleaning cost?

Every roof is different. Price depends on roof size, pitch, covering, access, amount of moss, waste disposal and any access equipment, so we quote after a survey or from photographs.

How much does gutter cleaning cost?

Domestic gutter clearance starts from £70. The final price depends on the size of the property, access and the amount of debris. Commercial work is quoted per site.

How much does fascia and soffit cleaning cost?

Fascia and soffit cleaning starts from £50. The final price depends on the length of the roofline, how the boards are reached and how long the staining has been there. It is usually booked alongside a gutter clearance so you only pay for one visit.

Can you clean uPVC fascias and soffits?

Yes. uPVC is the most common material we clean. Fascias, soffits and gutter fronts are cleaned with a method suited to the material — we don't default to high-pressure washing on plastic boards.

Do you clean the soffits as well as the fascias?

Yes. The soffit underneath the fascia board is where most of the staining shows, so both are worked on together, along with the front face of the gutter.

Will the staining come off completely?

In most cases, yes. Where staining has been on the boards for several years it can leave a shadow or a mark, and we tell you honestly what will and won't lift off before you commit.

Can I receive a quotation from photographs?

Often, yes. Photos of the roof, gutters and the property help us give an accurate quote; for larger or complex jobs we may still need a site visit.

Do you offer planned maintenance?

Yes. We can agree regular visits for homes and commercial sites, subject to agreement on scope and frequency.

Why do solar panels need cleaning?

Dust, pollen, bird droppings and general grime sit on the glass and block light from reaching the cells. Cleaning removes that layer so the panels can perform as they were designed to.

How much does solar panel cleaning cost?

Domestic solar panel cleaning is £6–£8 per panel, subject to a £55 minimum charge. Panels spread over two roofs, such as the house and a garage, sit at the top of the range. Larger commercial arrays are quoted per day after viewing the site.

How do you clean solar panels?

With pure water and a soft-bristled brush on a telescopic pole, working from the ground wherever we can. We don't use harsh chemicals or abrasive pads, and we don't walk on the panels.

Which areas do you cover?

Relevant areas of Berkshire, Hampshire and Surrey, subject to the job and access. Send us your postcode and we will confirm.
