Gutter Cleaning leicester

Throughout the year, gutterings suffer from a build-up of various types of natural vegetation, including leaves, pine needles, moss, and grass.  Birds also carry and drop seeds, leaves blown through the air by winds often fall  onto roof tops, where they can then settle and collect inside of gutters and downpipes, thus building up and eventually causing blockages.

Moss really is a particular problem for blocking gutters. Properties in the shade of trees or those that are north facing naturally have less light and is the perfect breeding ground for moss as it flourishes in damp and shaded environments.

Damp vegetation within the gutter provides an ideal breeding ground for moss and weeds. They can grow aggressively and the weeds will block the flow of water through the gutter, eventually causing an overflow. Ensuring gutters are clear before the winter months prevents further damage caused by snow or ice.

Above the guttering, moss is like a sponge on your roof, whilst absorbing moisture it prohibits the roof from being able to dry. This constant source of dampness can seep through the tiles, which will eventually cause damage to the property. With our innovative Gutter Vacuum Systems roof scrapers, we can scrape this moss from the roof and remove it before it becomes a much bigger problem for you.
