Neighbours and business owners are keen to ask the experts and we are more than happy to explain. 

Unfortunately there is no straight forward and simple answer to this question. Instead there are lots of factors to consider.

This is why we have put a blog post together.  Which covers the main factors of when you should have your gutters cleaned in Peterborough.  Along with how often you should have your gutters cleaned.

The Seasons 

The seasons of the year do affect your guttering and when you should get your gutters cleaned.

We came across some research recently that we wanted to share with you, it reports on the chances of blockages during different times of the year.

The research shows that in spring there is a 50% chance of gutter blockages, in summer this goes up to a 75% of guttering blockages.

In autumn the chances of a blockage in your guttering is at its highest, at 85% and this drops back down to an 80% chance of blockages in your gutter in winter.

Look at that!

When Should You Have Your Gutters Cleaned In Peterborough?

We are often surprised at the things we find in gutters, from dogs toys to Stanley knives.

The most common debris found during gutter cleaning is grass, weeds, silt and leaves.

Dependent on where your home is and what is around it will depend on when and how often you should book a gutter clean in Peterborough. Read our blog on the signs you need your gutters emptying here.

For example, if your home is out in the woods and large trees cover your house then you will need more regular gutter cleans.

This ensures those broken branches, twigs and leaves are out of your gutters reducing the risk of blockages and damaged guttering.
