Blocked gutters and overflow
Stop gutter problems spreading to stonework, entrances and windows
If water is pouring over the edge, plants are growing along the roofline, or a shared entrance is getting splashed after rain, the guttering needs checking. Leaves, moss and everyday debris build up quickly around Edinburgh homes, tenements, shops and managed buildings.
Tommy checks the address, access and height before quoting, then clears reachable gutters and visible blockages where the job can be handled safely and tidily. You can speak to Tommy directly about the job.

Warning signs and timing
When to ask for gutter cleaning
Edinburgh gets plenty of rain and plenty of trees, so gutters fill up faster than most people expect. Late autumn, once the leaves are down, and spring, after the winter debris and moss have settled in, are the usual times to have them checked. Do not wait for a set month if you can already see one of these signs.
Plants, moss or debris showing
Visible build-up along the roofline, in valley gutters or around downpipes that may be blocking the flow of water.
Damp patches or stained stonework
Dark streaks or damp marks on walls below the gutter line can mean water is running down the building instead of away from it.

Pricing
What affects the price of gutter cleaning
Every property is different, so Tommy quotes each job rather than guessing. The quote is free and the price is confirmed before the work is booked. These are the things that make the biggest difference:
- Property type - a single house, a tenement, a shop or a managed building.
- Height and storeys - upper-floor and roofline gutters take more care to reach safely.
- Access and parking - shared entries, back greens, narrow streets and where a van can stop.
- How blocked the gutters are - a light clear-out is quicker than gutters full of moss and silt.
- Length of guttering - more runs, bays and extensions mean more to clear.
If you need anything else done while Tommy is there, tell him what you need and he will confirm what is included in the quote.
Tenements and shared stairs
Gutter cleaning for Edinburgh tenements
Tenement gutters are shared, high and often awkward to reach, and a blockage above one flat can soak the stonework and entrance for the whole stair. Owners usually agree the work between them, so it helps to have a clear quote that can be passed round the stair or to the factor.
Send the address, which part of the building is affected and a photo from the street or back green if you can. Tommy checks height, access and parking first, and if part of the job cannot be reached safely he will say so before anything is booked. If the stair also needs its windows done, see tenement window cleaning.
Landlords, factors and businesses
Gutter cleaning for managed and commercial properties
T. Bryant can quote for landlord properties, tenements, managed buildings, shops and commercial premises where access and timing can be agreed.
Landlords
Send the address and who to contact for access. The quote is clear, so it is easy to approve or pass on. See also window cleaning for landlords.
Factors and managed buildings
Shared guttering on managed buildings can be quoted once the address, access and any shared-entry details are known.
Shops and offices
Overflowing gutters above a shopfront or entrance are the first thing customers notice. Timing can be agreed before the job is booked. See also commercial window cleaning.
Gutters overflowing or visibly blocked?
Send the address and a photo. Tommy will tell you what can be cleaned safely and what the job is likely to involve.
Questions before booking
Gutter cleaning questions
Most gutter cleaning enquiries come down to access, height and how bad the blockage looks. Photos are useful because Tommy can often spot access issues before booking the job.
How do I know the gutters need cleaned?
Overflow after rain, plants or moss along the roofline, water running down stonework, and splashing around shared entrances are all signs the guttering should be checked.
When is the best time of year to have gutters cleaned?
Late autumn, once the leaves have come down, and spring, after winter debris and moss have built up, are the usual times to have gutters checked. If you can see water spilling over after heavy rain, it is worth asking sooner rather than waiting for a set time of year.
Can you clean tenement or upper-floor gutters?
Sometimes. It depends on height, access, parking and the building setup. Send the address and photos so Tommy can check what is safe and reachable before quoting.
Can landlords, factors or businesses arrange gutter cleaning?
Yes. T. Bryant can quote for landlord properties, tenements, managed buildings, shops and commercial premises where access and timing can be agreed.
How much does gutter cleaning cost?
The price depends on property type, height, access and how blocked the gutters are. Tommy confirms the quote before the work is booked, and the quote itself is free.
What should I send to get a quote?
Send the address, say whether it is a house, tenement, shop, office or managed building, and add a photo of the problem area if you can. A photo taken from the street is usually enough to show where the water is overflowing.
What if part of the guttering cannot be reached safely?
Tommy checks what can be reached safely before quoting. If part of the job cannot be done safely, he will tell you clearly before anything is booked rather than after.
