How Our Gutter Service Works
We start with a quick inspection of your gutters, downpipes, and drainage outlets to understand what’s causing the problem — blockages, leaks, damaged brackets, or sagging sections. Once we’ve identified the issue, we clear all debris by hand, removing leaves, moss, silt, and anything else that’s preventing water flow. Outlets and downpipe connections are checked and cleared to ensure water exits the system properly.
If we find leaking joints, cracked sections, or sagging gutters, we carry out minor repairs on the spot where possible — re-sealing unions, replacing gaskets, or securing loose brackets. For more significant damage (split gutters, extensive corrosion, or structural issues), we provide a written quote for replacement work. We don’t push unnecessary replacements; if a repair will last, we’ll recommend that instead.
After cleaning and any repairs, we water-test the system by pouring water through the gutters to confirm proper flow and drainage. We tidy up, bag any debris, and leave the site clean. For landlords or property managers, we can provide before/after photos and written notes for your records. The whole process is straightforward, professional, and designed to prevent water damage to your property before it becomes a bigger problem. See also our roof maintenance page for related services.

Frequently Asked Questions
How often should gutters be cleaned in Dublin?
For most Dublin homes, gutters should be cleaned at least once per year — ideally in late autumn after leaves have fallen, or early spring before heavy rain. Properties surrounded by trees, or homes with moss-prone roofs, may need cleaning twice yearly (spring and autumn). If you notice overflow during rain, plants growing in gutters, or staining on walls, it’s overdue. Regular cleaning prevents blockages that cause damp, foundation damage, and expensive repairs. Landlords often schedule annual or bi-annual cleans as part of routine property maintenance. Commercial properties and flat roofs with parapet gutters may require more frequent attention due to larger catchment areas and outlet vulnerability. If unsure, we can inspect your gutters and recommend a cleaning schedule based on your property’s specific conditions and surrounding environment.
Can blocked gutters cause damp inside the house?
Yes, blocked gutters are a common cause of internal damp. When gutters overflow, water runs down external walls, saturating brickwork and eventually penetrating through to internal plaster. This shows up as damp patches on ceilings near the roofline or on upper-floor walls. Persistent overflow can also cause water to pool around foundations, leading to rising damp in ground-floor rooms. In severe cases, overflowing gutters saturate roof timbers, fascia boards, and soffits, causing rot and structural damage that allows water ingress through the roof itself. The longer gutters remain blocked, the worse the damage becomes — what starts as a small damp patch can escalate into mould growth, peeling paint, rotten woodwork, and costly repairs. Regular gutter cleaning prevents these issues entirely. If you’re already experiencing damp, fixing the gutter blockage is the first step, but you may also need a roof repair if water damage has occurred.
Do you repair leaks at gutter joints?
Yes, leaking gutter joints are one of the most common repairs we carry out. Leaks typically occur at union joints between gutter sections, where rubber seals have deteriorated, brackets have loosened, or sections have separated slightly due to thermal expansion or weight. We re-seal joints using appropriate sealants, replace worn gaskets, and ensure sections are properly clipped together. If the gutter material itself is cracked or split (common with older cast-iron or deteriorated uPVC), we may recommend replacing that section rather than attempting a temporary seal that won’t last. We aim for lasting repairs, not quick fixes that fail after the next heavy rain. After repairing joints, we water-test the system to confirm the leak is fixed and there are no other weak points. If your gutters are extensively corroded or damaged, we’ll advise honestly on whether repair or full replacement is the better option for your property and budget.
Do you replace gutters if they're beyond repair?
Yes, we provide full gutter replacement services for systems that are beyond economical repair. If gutters are extensively cracked, corroded, sagging across multiple sections, or if the fascia boards behind them are rotten, replacement is often more cost-effective than repeated repairs. We remove old guttering, check and repair fascia boards if needed, and install new uPVC guttering with proper brackets, correct fall, and sealed joints. We also advise on upgrades — for example, if your current gutters are undersized for your roof area and overflow frequently, we can install larger-capacity gutters or add extra downpipes to improve drainage. Replacements are quoted separately after inspection, with a clear breakdown of materials, labour, and access costs. We use quality uPVC systems with long guarantees. See our fascia and soffits page for related roofline work.
Do you check downpipes too?
Yes, downpipes are always checked as part of our gutter service. A blocked downpipe causes the entire gutter system to back up and overflow, even if the gutters themselves are clear. We check downpipe connections at the gutter outlet, inspect the pipe run for blockages (often caused by compacted leaves, moss, or debris), and clear any obstructions using rods or high-pressure water. At ground level, we check the drainage outlet — whether it connects to a soakaway, surface drain, or storm drain — to ensure water exits properly and doesn’t pool around your foundation. Downpipes can also crack, split, or become disconnected at joints, particularly on older properties. If we find damaged downpipes, we can repair or replace sections as needed. For properties with multiple downpipes or complex drainage systems, we provide a full check and clear written notes on any issues found. See our dedicated downpipes service page for more detail.
Will you provide photos and a written quote?
Yes, we provide both photos and written quotes on request. For landlords, property managers, or anyone needing documentation, we take before/after photos showing the condition of gutters, blockages found, and work completed. Photos are particularly useful for insurance claims, tenant records, or property condition reports. Written quotes detail exactly what work is needed — cleaning, repairs, replacements — with costs broken down clearly. If we identify issues during a clean (leaking joints, damaged brackets, rotten fascia), we explain the options and provide a quote for repair work before proceeding. There are no surprise charges or hidden extras. Everything is transparent and documented. If you’re getting quotes from multiple contractors, our written breakdown makes it easy to compare like-for-like. We email quotes and photos digitally, or provide printed copies if you prefer. For routine cleaning, we can often provide a fixed price over the phone based on property type and access requirements.
Are you insured for gutter cleaning and repair work?
Yes, we carry full public liability insurance for all gutter cleaning and repair work. Gutter work involves working at height, using ladders or scaffolding, and accessing roofs or fragile surfaces — all activities that require proper insurance cover. Your property is fully protected while we work. Insurance covers accidental damage to your property, injury to third parties, and our own employees. You can request to see our insurance documentation at any time. We follow health and safety procedures, use appropriate access equipment (ladders, towers, or scaffoling depending on height and access), and work carefully to avoid damaging tiles, fascia boards, or gutters themselves. We’re experienced in working on all types of Dublin properties — from terraced houses to semi-detached homes, detached properties, and commercial buildings. Professionalism and safety are priorities on every job, whether it’s a simple gutter clean or a full replacement across multiple sections.
Do you provide services for landlords and management companies?
Yes, we work extensively with landlords and property management companies across Dublin. We understand the specific needs of rental properties — coordinating tenant access, providing documentation for files, working to scheduled maintenance plans, and accommodating invoicing and purchase order systems. For portfolio landlords or property managers, we can arrange regular gutter cleaning across multiple properties, either annually or bi-annually, to prevent tenant complaints and maintain property condition. We provide before/after photos, written notes, and invoices structured to your accounting requirements. If tenants report overflow or leaks, we attend quickly, assess the issue, and carry out repairs with minimal disruption. We’re tenant-friendly, respectful of occupied properties, and professional in all communications. Many of our clients are letting agents, property managers, and landlords who rely on us for responsive, reliable gutter maintenance.
