Why Your Gutter Is Overflowing

Most blockages are a plug of wet leaves and moss sitting over the outlet. Nests, tennis balls and weeds rooted in the silt turn up regularly too. Sometimes the gutter itself has sagged, letting water and debris pool in a dip. The specialist can check with a pole camera before deciding how to clear it.

The specialist may lift out a compacted plug at the outlet, then check whether water can pass into the downpipe. Clearing the channel alone may not solve a blocked downpipe.

How a Blocked Gutter Is Cleared

  1. The camera is run along the gutter to find the plug.
  2. Leaves and silt are vacuumed out, and roots or nesting material removed by hand.
  3. The outlet is cleared so water can enter the downpipe.
  4. Water is run through the section to prove it drains.

Frequently Asked Questions

The answers below cover questions Torpoint homeowners often ask.

How do I get a blocked gutter cleared in Torpoint?

Send one enquiry with your postcode and a note of where the gutter is overflowing. We can pass it to up to four companies that clear blocked gutters around Torpoint.

Is my gutter blocked or is the downpipe blocked?

If the gutter overflows right above the downpipe and looks clear, the pipe is the likely problem. If water spills further along, the gutter itself is usually blocked.

Can I clear a blocked gutter myself?

Only if it is low enough to reach safely from the ground. Working from a ladder is a common cause of falls at home, so most people leave anything above a single storey to a specialist.

Should I get the rest of my gutters cleaned too?

If they have not been cleaned for a year or more, it is usually worth it. The extra cost while the equipment is set up is often small.
