The service

Clean gutters are cheap insurance.

Blocked gutters overflow, and overflowing water ends up in fascias, eaves, walls and foundations. Leaves, twigs and silt build up faster than most people think, especially in Hobart where the trees drop year round. One blocked downpipe is enough to back up a whole run.

We clear every metre by hand, bag the debris and take it away, then flush the downpipes and check they flow. If something needs attention, like a sagging bracket or a rusting joint, you’ll know about it with a photo.

What you get

  • Every metre cleared by hand, debris bagged and removed
  • Downpipes flushed and flow tested
  • Before and after photos of your actual gutters
  • Gutter guards cleaned, or installed if you want them
  • Safe work at height, fully insured
  • Plans every 4, 6 or 12 months, or custom
Done properly

What a proper gutter clean includes

Cleared by hand, not just blown out

Every metre gets cleared by hand and the debris bagged and taken away, not blasted onto your lawn or left sitting in the downpipes. Valleys get checked too, because that’s where Hobart’s leaf litter collects.

Downpipes flushed and flow tested

A clean gutter with a blocked downpipe still overflows. Every downpipe is flushed and tested before we call it done.

Photo proof, before and after

You shouldn’t have to climb a ladder to check our work. You get before and after photos of your gutters with the invoice, plus anything worth keeping an eye on.

Why autumn matters in Hobart

Southern Tasmania drops its leaves right before the heaviest rain of the year. A gutter that’s 80% full in May is overflowing in June. An autumn clean is the cheapest building maintenance you can buy.

Downpipe guards for problem trees

If one tree has you cleaning twice a year, downpipe guards stop debris getting into the pipes where blockages do the damage. We fit them for $100 each during any gutter clean.

Set and forget

Put it on a six or twelve month plan and we book you in and text you ahead of time. Your gutters stay clear and you never have to think about it.

I can highly recommend Jack. He is very personable and listened to me in regards to issues related to lichen on my roof. Jack investigated options and fully explained the process involved. Jack communicates well and keeps you in the loop. Again, I highly recommend his services.

FAQ

Good questions. Straight answers.

How much does gutter cleaning cost in Hobart?

Most homes fall between $199 and $500 depending on the length of guttering, the height and how full they are. You get a fixed price before we start.

How often should gutters be cleaned?

Twice a year suits most Hobart homes: autumn to catch the leaf drop, and spring to clear what built up over winter. Homes surrounded by trees can need it more often. We can recommend a schedule for your place.

Can you clean gutters with gutter guards?

Yes. Guards reduce what gets in, but they don’t stop everything. Dirt and seeds still work their way through, and the damp they hold underneath is just what moss and weeds need to grow. We lift the guards off, clean the gutters properly, then put the guards back on.

Do you take the debris away?

Yes. It’s bagged and taken with us, not left on your lawn or garden beds.

Do you work safely at height?

Yes. We use the right access equipment for the roof, and we’re fully insured for work at height.
