❓ Gutter FAQs

How often should gutters be cleaned in the Illawarra?

We recommend cleaning gutters at least twice a year — once in autumn after leaf fall and once in spring. Properties near large gum trees or in bushland areas (like Helensburgh, Stanwell Park, or Thirroul) may need cleaning 3–4 times per year.

Can you clean gutters on a two-storey house?

Yes. We use professional ladders, safety equipment, and extension tools to safely clean gutters on single and double-storey homes across the Illawarra.

Do gutter guards actually work?

Good quality mesh gutter guards significantly reduce the frequency of cleaning needed. They won’t eliminate cleaning entirely but can extend the interval from twice yearly to every 2–3 years on most homes.

My gutters are overflowing in heavy rain — what’s the problem?

This usually means a blockage in the gutters or downpipes, gutters that have sagged and lost their fall, or gutters that are undersized for the roof area. We can inspect and diagnose the issue and give you options.
