What Does Commercial Gutter Cleaning Involve?
Commercial gutters are not as easy to reach as residential ones. That’s why it’s always best to leave it to the professionals. At Robinsons Facilities Services, our fully insured and IPAF-trained team can gain easy access to gutters at any height using ladders or cherry pickers, if necessary.
With our advanced debris-clearing tools and industrial vacuum equipment, our specialists will thoroughly clean out all leaves, dirt, and blockages from your gutters and downpipes. We’ll then supply and fit filter cones to downpipes to prevent further blockages and facilitate easier cleaning.
We’ll not only remove the surface debris but also the stubborn organic layers that build up with the harsh British weather. Your roofline will regain its tidy, orderly appearance once again.
The Dangers of Clogged Gutters
What happens when a gutter isn’t regularly cleaned? Well, there are some potentially major risks for your business.
Water damage
One of the most serious consequences of clogged gutters is water damage caused when it overflows into unintended places.
This can also cause exterior paint damage from water cascading down the side of the building.
Furthermore, in colder weather, excess water seeping into walkways and entranceways can freeze, posing slip hazards.
Structural damage
Another common problem occurs when gutters begin to sag and pull away from the fascia board because of the extra weight. This not only looks unsightly, but it can also cause problems with the structure of your building.
Pest control
If there is standing water in the gutters, it can attract all sorts of pests, including insects and vermin. This is not only unpleasant, but it can also pose a health risk to employees and customers.
How Often Should I Have My Gutters Cleaned?
Let’s face it, our weather isn’t always the best. In fact, it rains on average 152 days per year in the UK. This means our gutters are put to the test almost every other day. Add to that the leaf fall in autumn and snow and ice during the winter months, it’s no wonder gutter cleaning is essential.
We typically recommend getting your commercial gutters cleaned every 6 months. Of course, this will vary from building to building. If you’re building is located near or under trees, more frequent cleaning will be necessary. Our specialist team can advise on the ideal gutter cleaning frequency for your commercial property.

Commercial Gutter Cleaning FAQs
We recommend having your commercial gutters cleaned every 6 months. If your roof and gutters are subject to heavy leaf fall, this would increase to every 3 months. It’s better to be safe than sorry with gutter cleaning for businesses.
Many people choose to clean their gutters in the spring and the autumn, preparing them for the rainiest seasons and reducing the chances of a blockage. Regular cleaning throighout the year is best to ensure your gutters are working properly.
In a commercial space, the guttering is often in a hard-to-reach area and this means it can be a specialist job requiring specialist tools. Unless you are trained, we don’t recommend it.
When it freezes in the winter, you can get ice dams in the blocked areas which lets melting ice leak into the building causing mould and potential leaks.
Pricing is determined by the size, height, and complexity of each building. Commercial premises can expect to pay in the region of £100 – £1000 for gutter cleaning services. We recommend contacting us for a free, no-obligation quote.
Tools include steamers, rods, brushes, and a number of attachments as well as ladders and safety equipment. This is quite a specialist job and the equipment reflects this.
