Great reference point for Gutter replacement http://www.wickes.co.uk/pcat/guttering/. There are many outlets for gutter replacement parts. Wicks is a very good source and the prices are quite low. The quality is acceptable and they stock standard sizes of half round and square profile guttering. Sometimes if adapters are needed ebay is another great place to buy. Delivery is often next day so we can get on with the job as soon as possible. Other places to obtain gutter parts are B&Q whose gutters are good quality. Screwfix and tool station are good places to pick up deep flow guttering. Gibbs & Dandy also have a good choice of guttering and other building materials. It is not always necessary to replace a gutter joint. If the rubber seal inside has perished that can be changed. This is a cheaper option but just as effective. We always carry tools to tackle most jobs. One of the best standby’s is the good old wire coat hanger. This can be bent to the right shape and can often dislodge material like moss and rotted leaves. Gutter replacement might be a good option to smarten up the outside of a property. This will certainly add to kerb appeal if the property is going to be sold.

We are adding a new vehicle for commercial work to our fleet, dedicated to commercial window and gutter cleaning. Because of new techniques we are able to be very competitive and will be combining waterfed pole with the unique Wagtail Slipstream achieving stunning results. In order for us to get around narrow streets and park in tight spots we will use Toyota vehicles. They have a great reputation for reliability. We have used Toyota for many years and have mechanics on hand that know the vehicles inside out. Toyota also have good fuel economy and residuals are high. Everything that we need to carry can be fitted in and the hight is just right to quickly remove ladders when we are out on call. Tyre wear is also a factor and when fully loaded you need to know that you can rely on your tyres. Handling is always good with these vehicles and if we have to travel on a motorway its great to be able to cruise in comfort without too much wind noise and vibrattion. The new vehicle for commercial work will enable us to keep up with a very demanding schedule and ensure arrive on time.
There is a proliferation of solar panels in the area, we are offering a solar panel cleaning service in Harpenden and St Albans. It is vital that they are cleaned to make sure they work to maximum efficiency. We have all the knowledge and equipment to carry out the work so give us a call.
Solar panels
When you get solar panels installed on your roof they will start to get a build up of dirt. Over a period of time this can cause the solar panels to become less effective. If the the solar panels are cleaned on a regular basis it can save you money. The more regular they are cleaned the less time it takes to clean them. Just a quick was over with pure water should do the job, no chemicals are used. The presence of dirt and grime on the panels surface prevents the suns rays from filtering onto the photovoltaic cells reducing their performance. You can ask us for a quote for your solar panels to be cleaned every three months. You will probably be surprised how inexspensive this service is. With permanently clean Solar Panels you should recoup the cost of cleaning from the extra energy they are able to produce.
Solar panel cleaning is just one of a number of services that we can offer the Harpenden Home and business owner. For Solar panel cleaning contact Kevin on 07757499296

The main purpose of a rain gutter is to protect a building’s foundations by channeling water away from its base. The gutter also helps to reduce erosion, prevents leaks in basements and crawlspaces,protects painted or stained surfaces by reducing exposure to water,and provides a means to collect rainwater for later use.Clogged gutters can cause water leakage into the building as the water backs up. Clogged gutters can also lead to stagnant water build up which allows bacteria to breed and also allows grasses and weeds to grow in the gutter. If we identify any problems we will suggest a quick way to fix it. we carry all the necessary tools and equipment required to do the job. If we don’t have the right part we can order it straight away so that the gutters are repaired as soon as possible. We have help at hand for all your gutter clean, unblock and repair problems.
Taken delivery of new Gardiners clx-27 carbon pole. Excellent service from Gardiner Pole Systems, will be trialling on grade 2 listed in Grange Court Road.I purchased this pole after much research into specs and prices by other manufacturers and am very disappointed…that is to say that I am very disappointed I didn’t discover these poles several years ago!!
This pole is nothing short of FANTASTIC ! Build quality and price are both excellent but the most impressive thing of all (other than the obvious super light weight) is that so many things have been addressed on this pole that so many others have missed in the past that it can only have been designed by someone that has actually cleaned windows themselves at some point…
The clamps are easy to operate and adjust, they are also anti pinch…no more blistered fingers!
The top section is removed in seconds enabling you to add a different goose neck or other attachment…lots different ones available
The brush also removes in seconds to enable the fitting of a brush more suited to the job you are on….again, many different available.
The brush rotates through 45 degrees in seconds by means of a push button lock to enable it to be used vertically…great for some jobs.
The goose neck angle is adjustable via means of a lever making it so quick and easy to alter the brush angle for roofs etc.
Sections are easily removed to create a shorter pole if needed…although it is so light I don’t bother!
The hose is very flexible and the best I have come across and as for extending it… it is super smooth!
To sum up, if you are thinking of buying this pole then don’t…don’t think about it that is! Just buy it, you will not be disappointed! I genuinely wish I had bought one of these ages ago, it has made my work so much easier on my old aching joints (shoulders in particular) that I can not believe the difference it has made!

Five bedroom house with conservatory in Harpenden. Conservatory and Gutter cleaned with our triple vac machine, outside gutters cleaned, access over conservatory to high gutters by carbon pole. The House is surrounded by large oak trees. It was difficult job made easy with right kit. Access can be a problem with certain properties. With poles and long hoses we are able to reach every area on the property. Sometimes just a small amount of debris can cause a dam. This in turn can cause water to back up and over flow. That’s why it is important to get to all the corners of the gutters with the gutter vac. Then water can flow through to the down pipes and into the drain. A five bedroom house with a conservatory is a challenge but should take no longer than a couple of hours to clean. It is a good idea to have the gutters inspected on a regular basis so that you always know you are safe from Rainwater entering your home from blocked gutters. We are able to take photos when we are up there so that you know exactly how much debris is in there. This can also be useful for insurance claims. We can email you the photos for a small charge.
Sometimes downpipes can be so severely blocked so far down that the gutter has to be dismantled. We are experienced in dismantling gutters in all conditions. It is important to note as if the gutter is prodded from the top the debris will be compounded and the blockage will be made worse. We always carry tools to dismantle and reassemble guttering.
The staff at Harpenden gutter cleaning are used to working in all types of weather conditions. When there is heavy rain we can determine where the problem is and carry out the work there and then. If there are any broken parts we can order them straight away and fit them as soon as possible. If the problem is under ground we can dig down and see if there is a blocked drain or soakaway. In extreme cases jetting out with a pressure washer might be required. Nine times out of ten the blockage can be cleared by hand or with rods.
