How a Woburn Sands gutter and fascia cleaning visit is planned

Gutter & Fascia Cleaning: how the work is done
Gutter clear-outs, downpipe checks and fascia and soffit cleaning.
- Gutters are cleared out physically and the runs checked for standing water, not just vacuumed from the ground and signed off.
- Downpipes and gullies are flow-tested, because a clear gutter draining into a blocked pipe solves nothing.
- Debris bagged and removed from site.
