Get your gutters fire-ready before summer.
The CFA tells people in bushfire areas to clear their gutters in early spring, before the Fire Danger Period is declared. Dry leaves in a gutter are where embers land. Book now and you'll get a dated photo report you can show the council or your insurer.
Gutters, downpipes and valleys. Sorted.
One local bloke, done properly. I don't do repairs or plumbing; if I spot a problem I'll photograph it and tell you who to call.

Everything is bagged and taken away. Paths, decks and garden beds are left the way I found them.
Know your gutters.
Plain-English answers to the questions I get asked most: how often, what to check from the ground, and how to get ready for fire season.
Getting your gutters fire-ready before the Fire Danger Period
Dry leaves in a gutter are exactly where embers land. This is the CFA's timing and checklist for gutters and roofs, plus what it means if the council sends you a Fire Prevention Notice.
Read the guide →How often should you clean your gutters?
Under gum trees, once a year usually isn't enough. Here's how to work out the right rhythm for your roof without guessing.
Read the guide →Signs your gutters or downpipes are blocked (checked from the ground)
You don't need a ladder to tell whether gutters need doing. Walk around the house with these checks, ideally during or just after rain.
