September is another one of those months that depends on the weather, if like what we all hope and summer carry’s on through into the last few weeks of September then it can be a quite month, however as we all know the rain didn’t stop and it was our busiest September since we started. September is also a good time to start thinking about getting your gutters cleared, as we start entering Autumn and the leaves start falling, if you not had your gutters cleared for couple years, this is a good time to get winter ready.
We had a call from a new client in Farnham who had a blocked down pipe and noticed every time it rained the entire back gutter was over flowing, it just so happened that on the day it was pouring down so l could see the issue immediately. Not so uncommon but the down pipe was blocked at the bottom, where the down pipe was fitted into the drain cover, this caused the blockage, then the rain just filled up the gutters and over flowed onto the building.
Another regular customer from Alton called to have her yearly gutter clearence, down pipe check and just make sure everything was ready for winter, a good indicator is the lady had noticed the amount of moss on her patio, and realised that if the patio was getting it the gutters must have been rammed, after all these years it still surprises me to see how full gutters can get over 12 month period.
At Deans Gutters l always try to leave the customer happy and try to gain a regular customer out of a visit, all regular customers are charged the same amount each year.
Blocked down pipes and gutters really are the main reason clients call us out, so keeping on top of them is good home care, we are regularly clearing gutters and cleaning gutters for our regular yearly customers and our growing number of new clients, here are the some close up photos from blockages whilst working in Alton recently.
A leaky gutter is also another regular call out, sometimes we can repair a gutter joint other times it’s best just to replace the gutter joint all together and have peace of mind that a joint is new and no more issues.
