Why choose Glorious Gutters & Exterior Cleaning?

Glorious Gutters is not a nameless national franchise. It is owned and run right here in the local community by Samuel Johnston, who brings a background in mechanical engineering and construction to every job. That means a rare level of precision, hands-on problem solving and genuine pride in the work.

We show up on time, every time. Nothing is more frustrating than a full-day waiting window, so we give you clear scheduling, arrive when we say and work efficiently. Your time is as valuable as ours.

You get direct, honest communication and real accountability. Because we are personally owned rather than an outsourced crew, every job reflects our own reputation, so we never cut corners and never leave a mess on your driveway or flowerbeds.

We are fully insured, City and Guilds trained in the safe use of biocides, and hold a Powered Access licence for working at height. A job is not finished until you are completely happy with the result.

Does gutter clearing include repairs?

Any minor repairs that do not require new parts can be completed during the clearing process. If something does need a part, we will point it out and give you a price rather than leaving it unfinished.

Does it include the downpipes?

Yes. Gutter clearing includes a full inspection and clearing of the downpipes where applicable, so a blockage lower down the system does not get missed.

How much does gutter clearing cost?

Gutter clearing starts from around £80 for a smaller property and rises with the size and height of the home, typically up to about £250. You will always get a clear price before we begin.

Will you leave a mess behind?

No. All the moss, leaves and silt we remove are bagged and taken away. We are careful to leave your driveway, paths and flowerbeds clean.

How often should gutters be cleared?

For most homes once a year is enough, but properties with a lot of overhanging trees may benefit from a clear twice a year, usually in autumn and spring.

Does this include clearing the gutters?

Yes. We clear the gutters as part of the same visit while we clean the external face of the fascia, soffit and guttering, so you get a clean finish and free-flowing drainage together.

Will it bring green uPVC back to white?

In almost all cases, yes. We remove the algae and road grime that dull white uPVC and bring the finish back to its original bright white. The difference is usually immediate.

Is the cleaning safe for the plastic?

Yes. We use gentle, controlled methods rather than aggressive scrubbing, so your fascias and soffits are cleaned safely without damaging the finish.

How much does fascia and soffit cleaning cost?

It typically ranges from around £150 to £400 depending on the size of the property and the length of the roofline. We will give you a fixed price before we start.

What methods do you use to clean a roof?

We offer several methods depending on the roof: manual moss removal, approved biocide treatment, low pressure washing and soft washing. We choose the safest effective approach for your tiles.

What is soft washing?

Soft washing is a gentle, low pressure alternative to traditional pressure washing. It uses specialised, eco-friendly cleaning solutions to safely dissolve moss, algae, lichen and dirt without blasting the roof, so the tiles are protected.

Is it safe to pressure wash a roof?

We strongly advise against harsh, high pressure jet washing. Instead we use a specialised low pressure rotary pole system that glides across the surface, so there is no direct blasting that could strip or crack the tiles or force water underneath them.

Why choose manual scraping and biocide?

This combination is the gold standard for roof longevity. Manual scraping lifts away thick moss straight away without aggressive water pressure, and the biocide treatment then kills the remaining spores at the root, giving a cleaner, longer lasting result.

How much does roof cleaning cost?

Roof cleaning ranges from around £500 to £3,000 depending on the size, pitch and access of the roof and the method needed. We survey first and give you an honest, fixed quote.

Does block paving include re-sanding?

Yes. All quotes for block paving are inclusive of fresh kiln-dried sand and full re-sanding once the surface is clean, which locks the blocks back in place and helps keep weeds down.

Can you repoint my patio as well?

Pressure washing does not include repointing as standard, but we can price to repoint the patio at the same time so it is all completed in one visit.

What surfaces can you clean?

We clean driveways, patios, paths and decking across block paving, natural stone, concrete and slabs. We match the pressure and technique to the surface so it is cleaned thoroughly without damage.

How much does pressure washing cost?

Pressure washing typically ranges from around £150 to £600 depending on the size and condition of the area. You will get a clear, fixed quote before we start.

Do you use chemicals to clean solar panels?

Chemical use is our last option for solar cleaning. Only under certain circumstances do we clean panels with chemicals, and when we do we use approved products from the manufacturers to protect the panels and their warranty.

Why do solar panels need cleaning?

Dust, pollen and bird mess build up on the glass and quietly reduce how much power your system generates. A regular clean restores the lost efficiency and helps your panels earn their keep.

How do you clean the panels?

We clean panels with pure water and soft brushing, which lifts the dirt without scratching the glass or leaving streaks. It is a gentle process designed to protect the panels.

How much does solar panel cleaning cost?

We price per panel, at roughly £5 to £10 each, so you know exactly where you stand before we begin.
