Gutter cleaning in Cardiff: what it costs, when to do it, and is it worth it?
Gutter clearing for a typical Cardiff semi costs about £73–£97, a terrace about £62–£83, and more for a detached or three-storey house. Once a year in late autumn is enough for most homes, twice if you’re near trees.

Guide prices including VAT, worked out for Cardiff from the same price list our quotes use. Your exact price comes from a few taps.
Is it worth paying for?
A blocked gutter sends rainwater down your wall instead of the downpipe. Over a winter that means damp patches inside, rotten fascias and stained render, all of which cost far more than a clean.
When is the best time?
Late October to December, once most of the leaves have fallen. See our autumn gutter clearing page.
Tall houses
Cardiff and Penarth have plenty of tall Victorian houses. Three-storey gutters need the right ladders or a gutter vacuum with long poles, which is why they’re priced separately.
