Gutter cleaning and clearing in Royal Hillsborough, Co Down

Gutter clearing in Royal Hillsborough, Co Down, needs a bit of care, because a lot of the gutters here sit on older fascias. Gutter clearing means emptying the inside of your gutters and unblocking the downpipes. Gutter cleaning means washing the outside so they look white again. We do both. You'll find timber and painted boards on the period houses around the village, as well as newer homes out towards Culcavy and the Dromore Road. Leaning a ladder on that kind of guttering is what cracks the brackets and pulls the gutters out of line, so we work from the ground instead.

We empty the upper and lower gutters, flush any blocked downpipes and leave the ground under the eaves clean. Houses near the trees towards Annahilt and out along the lanes get a lot more leaves in autumn. Sheltered new builds fill up more slowly, but they still silt up over time. If your roof is dropping a lot of moss into the gutters, we'll tell you. A roof clean often stops the gutters filling up again within a few months.

Our gutter vacuum sits on a long pole with a camera on the end, so we can see into the gutter from the ground and show you it's empty. We can also wash the outside of your gutters, soffits and fascias on the same visit with our gutter, soffit and fascia wash.

We're already in Hillsborough for other outside work from our base in Lisburn, so clearing your gutters here isn't a special trip. Most houses can get a price on our instant gutter quote, and if yours is three storeys or awkward to reach, we'll work out a price for it. If you're on our Hillsborough window round, we can do the windows on the same day. Our autumn gutter clearing guide explains when to book in leaf season.

Questions about gutter cleaning in Hillsborough

Will the vacuum damage older gutters in Hillsborough?

No. We don't lean a ladder on your gutters at all. The vacuum works from the ground with a camera, which is much kinder to old brackets and painted fascias than climbing on them.

How much does gutter clearing in Hillsborough cost?

It's the same price as everywhere else we go. Gutter clearing starts at £70 for one or two sides of an average house on our instant gutter quote, and there's a small extra for a garage, extension or conservatory, shown on the quote.

How often should gutters be cleared if I'm near trees?

On lanes with a lot of trees, twice a year is sensible: once in late autumn and again in spring. Houses on the more open village streets can usually manage with once a year.

Can you clean my windows as well?

Yes, if you're on our Hillsborough window round. Have a look at window cleaning in Hillsborough and mention the gutters when you get in touch.
