Our yard is on Wotton Road, so most Ashford jobs get booked in within a few days rather than a few weeks. That matters more than it sounds in October and November, when everyone notices their gutters at once and half the trade in Kent is booked up until January.
It also means if something isn’t right, we can come back. We’re not driving forty miles to put it right, we’re round the corner.
Everything is done from ground level with a high reach vacuum system, so nothing leans against your guttering, your fascias or your conservatory roof.
Out on Park Farm, Repton, Singleton and Chilmington the roofs are modern and the pitches are shallow. Water moves slowly off the tiles, so silt, moss granules and roofing grit settle in the gutter rather than being carried to the downpipe. On newer builds we also still find mortar and construction debris in the runs years after handover.
The older parts of town, around Beaver Road and the streets off the High Street, are the opposite. Steeper Victorian pitches shift water quickly, but the trees are mature and the guttering is often original.
Out in the villages, at Wye, Charing, Bethersden, Smarden and Mersham, it’s leaf fall and overhanging trees almost entirely. Properties under the Downs at Wye and Brabourne tend to want doing twice a year rather than once.
Water that can’t drain away runs down the wall instead. On the older brick properties around the town centre that means saturated brickwork and eventually damp showing through inside. On the newer estates the render marks first, and a green stain down a light-coloured wall is very hard to shift once it’s established.
Most properties want doing once a year, and the autumn clear is the important one. If you’ve got trees overhanging the roof, which most of the village properties do, a second clear in spring stops the debris compacting over summer.
We’ll come out and quote first, so you know the price before anything starts. There’s no charge for that and no pressure either way.
On the day, the whole run gets cleared front and back, the downpipes get flushed through as well as the horizontal runs, and the debris is bagged and taken away rather than tipped into your borders. We’ll check for splits, sagging sections and loose brackets while we’re up there, and tell you if anything needs attention beyond a clean.
You don’t need to be in, as long as we can get access round the back. Most standard properties are done inside an hour or two.
Kennington, Willesborough, Park Farm, Repton Park, Singleton, Stanhope, Bybrook, South Ashford, Chilmington Green and Sevington, plus the villages out at Wye, Charing, Bethersden, Smarden, Pluckley, Mersham, Sellindge, Hamstreet and Tenterden.
