Overview
Leaves, sludge and debris cleared by hand and bagged, then downpipes flushed so water runs freely. A small job that protects your fascia, walls and foundations. Maidly provides gutter cleaning for homes and businesses across Christchurch, from the central city to the coast and the Port Hills.
Why blocked gutters matter
When gutters fill with leaves and sludge, rainwater overflows down your walls instead of draining away. That leads to damp, stained cladding, rotting fascia boards and water pooling against your foundations.
Blocked gutters also hold moisture and weight, which can pull spouting away from the house. Regular cleaning is a small cost that prevents much bigger repairs.

Why it matters
Christchurch's mature street trees and spring and autumn winds fill gutters quickly. If you have trees near your house, twice a year is a good rhythm.
Clean gutters are also essential if you collect rainwater, and they're worth doing before winter sets in.
Gutter cleaning FAQs
How often should gutters be cleaned?
Most homes need it once a year. If you have trees overhanging the roof, every six months is safer, ideally after leaves drop in autumn.
Do you take the rubbish away?
Yes. Debris is bagged and removed from your property, so there's nothing left for you to clean up.
Can you clean gutters on a two-storey house?
Yes. Let us know the number of storeys when you request a quote so we can plan the right access.
