Damp and Mould
Overflowing water runs down walls and soaks into brick and render, leading to damp patches, black mould and staining inside the home.

Professional Gutter Cleaning for New Forest Homes and Businesses
Your gutters have one job: carry rainwater off the roof and away from your walls. When leaves, moss, silt and debris build up, that water has nowhere to go. It spills over the edge, soaks into brickwork and render, and finds its way behind fascias and into the fabric of the building.
Purefection cleans gutters using high-reach vacuum systems, camera inspections and manual methods where required. The vacuum removes debris from the full run of guttering, the camera lets us, and you, confirm the gutter is clear, and downpipes are checked so water actually leaves the system rather than just pooling somewhere else.
Across Lymington, Brockenhurst, Lyndhurst and the wider New Forest, tree cover is heavy. Oak, beech and pine shed onto roofs all year round, and coastal properties in Milford on Sea and Barton on Sea collect moss and wind-blown debris quickly. That is why regular, properly done gutter cleaning matters more here than in many parts of the country.
What Happens When Gutters Are Ignored
Rotting Fascias and Soffits
Standing water sits against timber and boards behind the gutter, causing rot and paint failure that is far more expensive to fix than a clean.
Foundation and Ground Damage
Water dumped in one spot erodes paths and beds, and pooling near the base of walls can affect drainage around the property.
Common mistakes we see
- Waiting until gutters visibly overflow; by then debris is usually compacted and plants have rooted.
- Climbing a ladder with a trowel, which is risky and rarely clears the downpipe.
- Clearing the gutter but not checking the downpipe, so the blockage simply moves further down.
- Using a jet wash from the ground, which can force debris into joints and soak the walls.

What to send for an accurate quote
Your address, a brief description of the gutter cleaning you need, and a few clear photos taken from ground level. Photos showing the full elevation, any problem areas and access points, such as side gates, conservatories, parked cars, let Kieron price accurately without a wasted visit.
Before the day
Make sure there's access to all sides of the property, unlock side gates, and move cars, bins or garden furniture away from the areas being cleaned where possible. Close windows and doors near the work area.
On the day and after
Work is carried out carefully and the area is left clean and tidy. Afterwards, you'll get honest advice on how often the work should be repeated for your property: no pressure, no automatic rebooking.
What You Get
Protects Your Walls
Rainwater goes where it should, reducing the risk of damp, staining and water damage to render and brickwork.
Safer Method
Ground-based vacuum systems reach high gutters without ladders resting on fragile gutter runs.
Visible Proof
Camera inspections show the gutter is clear, so you know the full length has been done.
Fewer Repair Bills
Keeping gutters clear helps avoid rotten fascias, failed joints and costly repairs later.

Honest Advice
If a joint is leaking or a bracket has failed, you'll be told, without pressure to buy extras.
Gutter Cleaning Methods, Materials and Property Types
Vacuum Gutter Cleaning
A powerful industrial vacuum with carbon-fibre poles lifts leaves, silt, moss and debris straight out of the gutter from ground level. It works on two- and three-storey houses and suits properties where ladder access is awkward, such as over conservatories, bay windows and flower beds.
Camera Inspections
A pole-mounted camera lets us inspect inside gutters that cannot be seen from the ground. It confirms the run is clear and highlights issues like sagging sections, misaligned joints or debris lodged at outlets.
Manual Clearing
Some blockages, such as compacted silt, roots or awkward outlets, need hands-on clearing. Where required and safe to do so, debris is removed manually and outlets cleared.
Downpipe Checks
A clean gutter is only half the system. Downpipes are checked to make sure water drains away freely rather than backing up into the gutter again.
Gutter Types We Clean
UPVC, cast iron, aluminium and box gutters on houses, bungalows, flats and commercial buildings. Conservatory gutters, garage gutters and outbuildings can be included in the same visit.
Residential vs Commercial
Homes typically need a straightforward clean once or twice a year. Commercial buildings, sailing clubs and blocks of flats often have longer runs, greater heights and valley gutters, where high-level access such as a cherry picker may be used. Each job is assessed individually.
How Often Should Gutters Be Cleaned?
Most properties benefit from cleaning once or twice a year, typically in spring and autumn. Homes with heavy tree cover or leaf fall, common across the New Forest, may need more frequent visits. Kieron will recommend a frequency at quotation stage based on your property.

Gutter Cleaning FAQs
How much does gutter cleaning cost in Lymington?
We don't publish fixed prices because every property is different: size, height, access and how much has built up all affect the job. Call or WhatsApp 07977 533101 with your address, a short description and a few photos, and Kieron will give you an accurate quote.
How long does gutter cleaning take?
It depends on the size of the property and how much has built up. Kieron will give you an idea of timings when quoting, so you know what to expect on the day.
Do you need to go on my roof?
In most cases, no. Gutters are cleaned from the ground using vacuum systems with extended poles, with camera checks to confirm the result.
How often should I have my gutters cleaned?
Most homes benefit from cleaning once or twice a year, usually spring and autumn. Properties surrounded by trees may need more frequent visits; we'll advise based on your home.
Is the work insured?
Yes. All work is covered by £3 million public liability insurance.
Can you also clean soffits, fascias and walls?
Yes. Many customers combine gutter cleaning with soffit and fascia cleaning, UPVC cleaning or a full exterior clean in one visit.
Do you offer emergency gutter clearing?
There is no dedicated emergency service, but if water is pouring over your gutter, call 07977 533101 and Kieron will tell you how quickly he can fit you in.
