Do you take the moss away?

Bagged and removed from site as standard. It doesn't end up in your borders.

How loud is the vacuum?

Quieter than most leaf blowers. We rarely get a comment from neighbours about noise.

Yes — £5m public liability. The whole point of working from the ground is that it's safer, but the cover is there.

How often should I book?

Once a year for most homes; twice for properties under tree cover, near pines, or with sycamores nearby.

Do you clear gutters on flats with no rear access?

Yes — front-only properties and terraces with awkward access are part of our normal week, particularly in the city.

Why Southway matters for this kind of work
