Septic-served properties make it worth thinking about runoff before any cleaning starts. Most weeks we're up and down the B3210 between Avonwick and the next booking. Exposure here is moderate - 14.9 miles from our PL3 base makes turnaround short.

Two of us live within twenty minutes of the yard, which is why booking flexibility is easier than customers expect. Windows are usually the entry-point job for new customers, and everything else follows on from that first visit. Access photos help more than measurements when you're getting a first quote back from us. Landlords with multiple properties get a single monthly invoice covering every visit, not one per address. For the odd fourth-storey house we bring a taller pole in from a neighbour's yard, still no scaffold needed. We book the last Friday of each month as a catch-up day, so short-notice fixes rarely wait more than a fortnight. Windows include the frames, the sills, the trickle vents and the cill drain holes, always. Extras are always agreed on the day in writing before any additional work starts. Roof access ladders are inspected each morning and swapped out at the first sign of wear. Runoff is diverted with drain bungs where soakaways feed straight into wildlife ponds. Two-storey work is the same price as single-storey where the pole reaches — height alone doesn't drive the cost. For historic properties we send a method statement covering exactly what will and won't be used. Small drone footage is available on request for high-level roof inspections without ladder time. The wall pump gets calibrated at the top of each visit, not once per job — it drifts otherwise. Enquiry-to-quote turnaround is measured weekly and posted on the wall in the yard.

Where it usually starts in Avonwick

  • Hopper heads packed with leaves from mature trees across Avonwick - 14.9 miles from PL3 - a job we tend to batch with neighbouring runs.
  • Joints leaking at the corners under pine-needle compaction on stone cottages and converted mill buildings - at roughly 50.406,-3.808 - worth catching before the next wet stretch.
  • Drip-line erosion in borders below the worst-blocked sections in Avonwick - on granite and painted render - the reason we send photos on completion rather than invoice cold.
  • Half-round gutters sagging where bracket spacing wasn't right on rural village stock - across natural slate - quoted from photos in most cases, no doorstep survey.
  • Outlet boxes overflowing during Avonwick's heaviest moderate winter showers - on stone cottages stock - worth combining with the gutters if they're due at the same time.

The method that suits Avonwick

  1. 1Vacuum pole calibrated for the gutter profile typical of stone cottages and converted mill buildings (on granite and painted render - the reason we send photos on completion rather than invoice cold).
  2. 2Hopper heads and box gutters cleared as standard on rural village layouts (across natural slate - quoted from photos in most cases, no doorstep survey).
  3. 3Bracket spacing checked during the clean on older stone cottages and converted mill buildings (on stone cottages stock - worth combining with the gutters if they're due at the same time).
  4. 4Outlet boxes flushed at the end of every visit on rural village properties (at moderate exposure - one of the calls we get most in the wetter half of the year).
  5. 5Conservatory upstands cleared by hand on stone cottages and converted mill buildings (in the South Hams District Council patch - and it's why we default to the softer end of the pressure range).
