High Quality Flat Roofing at an Affordable Price.

Blocked gutters are one of those problems that people tend to put off until the water starts pouring down the wall or pooling around the foundations. By then, what could have been a straightforward clean has turned into something far more expensive.

At Point Roofing, we carry out professional gutter cleaning for homeowners and businesses right across Norwich and Norfolk. It’s a simple job done properly: we clear everything out, flush through the downpipes, and check everything is draining the way it should. No mess, no fuss, no pressure-washing tiles that don’t need it.

If your gutters are overflowing, sagging, or you just can’t remember the last time they were cleared — give us a call on 01603 905 295.

Signs Your Gutters Need Cleaning

Gutters don’t give you a lot of warning. One minute they’re fine, the next you’re watching water cascade down your fascia boards every time it rains. Here are the signs that it’s time to get them sorted:

What Our Gutter Cleaning Service Includes

We don’t just scoop out the obvious debris and call it done. A proper gutter clean involves the whole system, not just what’s visible from the street.

Full Gutter Clearance

We remove all leaves, moss, dirt, and built-up sludge from your guttering. Blocked gutters often look clean until you actually get up there, the problem is usually compacted debris sitting just past a joint or corner.

Downpipe Flushing

A clear gutter trough doesn’t mean much if the downpipe is blocked. We flush through all downpipes to check flow and clear any obstructions. This is the step a lot of DIY cleaning misses.

Condition Check

While we’re up there, we check the condition of your guttering, joints, brackets, and fascia boards. If we spot anything that needs attention, a loose bracket, a leaking joint, or a section that’s starting to pull away, we’ll let you know. We won’t over-sell you repairs that aren’t needed, but we will flag anything that’s worth looking at before it becomes a problem.

Safe Working at Height

We’re a professional roofing company, working at height is what we do every day. We use appropriate access equipment and follow safe working practices throughout. You don’t need to worry about someone balancing on a wobbly ladder against your wall.

How Often Should Gutters Be Cleaned in Norwich?

For most properties in Norwich, once a year is the minimum. If you have significant tree cover, particularly oak, sycamore, or birch, which are common across the city’s older residential streets, twice a year makes more sense.

The best time for a full clean is late autumn, once the leaves have come down. A lighter check in spring can be useful to pick up any debris from winter storms.

If your property is in an area with a lot of mature trees, parts of Eaton, Thorpe, or the Golden Triangle or if you’ve got a flat roof extension with gutters at a lower level, you might find they block more quickly than a standard terraced house. We’re happy to advise based on your specific property.

What Happens If You Leave Blocked Gutters?

It’s worth being honest about what blocked gutters actually cause, because it’s more than just a bit of overflow:

Damp and water ingress: Water that can’t drain properly sits against your fascia boards and soffit, eventually working its way into the roof structure or through the wall.
Damaged fascias: Timber fascia boards rot when they’re consistently wet. UPVC can warp and pull away from fixings. Either way, what started as a £80 gutter clean can turn into a £600+ fascia replacement.
Foundation problems: Overflow pooling at ground level, especially around bay windows and extensions, puts unnecessary moisture pressure on foundations.
Subsidence risk: Less common but very real in older Norwich properties, particularly in areas with shrinkable clay soils, prolonged water saturation around foundations can cause problems over time.
Ice damage in winter: Blocked gutters hold standing water. In colder months, that freezes, expands, and can crack gutter sections or force apart joints.

None of this is meant to be alarming, most blocked gutters are sorted with a straightforward clean. The point is that it’s the kind of maintenance that’s genuinely worth doing, rather than just a nice-to-have.

Gutter Cleaning FAQs

How long does a gutter clean take?

For a standard semi-detached or terraced property, usually 30–60 minutes. Larger detached homes, bungalows with complex rooflines, or properties with significant blockages will take longer. We’ll give you an accurate idea when we quote.

Do I need to be home?

Not necessarily. As long as we can access the gutters, the work can usually be completed without anyone needing to be in. We’ll let you know how we’re getting on and send over any photos of concerns we’ve spotted.

Will you repair gutters as well as clean them?

Yes. As a full roofing company, we carry out all types of guttering repairs, from replacing a cracked section or leaking joint through to full gutter replacement and fascia board repairs. If we find something during the clean, we can often fix it the same day.

Do you use high-pressure washing?

No — and we’d advise against it for most guttering. High-pressure water can force water behind fascia boards and into areas it shouldn’t go. We clear manually and flush with controlled water flow to check drainage. It’s less dramatic but far safer for your home.
