Gutter Cleaning Hobart
How often have you woken up on a crisp Saturday Hobart morning and thought, ‘Awesome! Today is Gutter Cleaning day! Time with family can wait. Time relaxing on the couch can wait! I’m cleaning gutters today!’
We’re going to go out on a limb and say … ‘Never!’ And we, at Apple Isle Gutter Cleaning Hobart understand that. It is not something most people want to do. Climbing up ladders, digging around elbow deep in the mud and dirt and leaf litter, disturbing wasp nests and mosquitos, all to try and un-clogged a blocked up gutter … It’s not surprising that people just really don’t want to think about their gutters, and often don’t, until it is too late. Our contractors have been elbow-deep in more of Hobart’s clogged up gutters than we can count. If you live in Hobart or any of its surrounding services, there is no better option than us. Now, of course, we don’t want to go any further before informing you that all of our contractors are fully insured. They follow all Occupational Health and Safety Standards with a vigorous attention to detail. Every job, when working at heights, on a ladder, has risks, and we would much prefer we take on those risks, than you. Our contractors are experienced at working at heights and working from ladders, and our number one priority is, and will always be, safety; yours, your family’s and our own. We don’t only clean the gutters of domestic homes; we also have a service for commercial and corporate businesses as well. You may own a shop, or an office building; maybe you are the owner of a plush hotel, or the property manager of a town house complex. Whatever the case might be, if you have gutters, we can clean them. It’s a rather simple equation. You have gutters = we can clean them! And let’s not forget, we don’t only limit ourselves to cleaning your gutters. We also perform Solar Panel Cleaning services. Those poor things sit up on your roof all day, pointed at the sun, soaking up its rays. By their very nature, they can’t be protected from the elements; they get impacted with wind-blown leaves, dirt, mud, grit and the caustic droppings of whatever birds happen to fly by. Solar panels work most efficiently when their entire surface is devoted to the gathering and collecting of the sun’s rays. Anything short of that, diminishes the energy output of your solar panels. Those bird droppings could literally be costing you money. |

How Can I Tell If My Gutters Are Blocked And Need Cleaning?
It can be difficult to see what is happening all the way up there, unless you have access to a drone. Waiting until Google Maps updates their pictures and then zooming down on your house is probably not the best option.
But here are some other ways of telling whether your gutters might be blocked and require cleaning.
After it rains, take note of what is happening with your water runoff. Water should flow from your roof, into your gutters and down your drainpipes. If the water is filling up and sloshing over the sides, this might be because the gutter is clogged with debris, and the water can’t get to the drainpipe.
Probably, waiting for a rainy day mightn’t be the best option. Instead, take a look at your gutters and see if you can notice whether they are sagging. Dirt and debris, particularly if it is water soaked, can be heavy, and your gutter is not designed to take much weight for long periods of time. So if you can see sagging, it might be because it is clogged with water soaked mud and debris.
Check the areas around your gutters for rust and mildew. Water that is unable to flow down the drainpipes may begin to cause rust and mildew where the blockage is located.
Check what is visiting your gutters. If you notice an uptick in the number of birds or rodents hanging around there, this may be because your gutters are clogged. Rodents love a clogged gutter, because the dirt, leaves and mud give it a warm place where they can hide from predators, while birds building nests love the surplus of twigs and leaves available.
Check to see if any vegetation is growing from your gutters. Greenery needs soil and water to grow; a blocked gutter would be the perfect place for little plants to grow.

Why Must I Clean My Gutters?
We all know that gutters are one part in the process of getting water from your roof into the drainage system. When they are blocked, this system breaks down. You no longer have control of the water’s movements.
Blockages cause water to pool, and we all know that water and metal don’t mix. Neither does water and wood.
Pooling water can cause your roof to rot and rust, creating leaks into your home. This can require a very costly roof repair to fix.
Now add to this the fact that certain insects like mosquitos are attracted to pooling water. If this water causes your roof to leak, those insects will have a way into your home, as well.

Can I Clean The Gutters Myself?
Cleaning gutters doesn’t look like a hard job. You just need a ladder, and Bob’s your uncle.
But working from ladders takes experience and training to eliminate as much of the risks as possible. And when you are working with gutters that might have buckled or become misshapen, that adds another wrinkle to the problem, as you need to determine where is the best place to position your ladder.
Even falls from as low as a couple of metres can be extremely serious, and 200 people a year die from falling from a ladder each year in Australia.
We don’t want that to be you.
And why should you even risk it when we can do the job quicker and safer than you could do it yourself.

OUR SERVICES
Residential Gutter Cleaning
Gutters blocked with dirt, mud, leaves, vegetation and debris can cause a number of problems to your home and property. Not only can the weight of the blockage cause the structure itself to sag, warp and deform, but the pooled water may cause rust, rot, mould and mildew issues to your roof, walls and foundation.
Getting your gutter unclogged just might save you more costly roof repairs in the future.
And we don’t only unclogged and clean your gutters, we unclog your drainpipes too. Blocked drainpipes can cause the same problems as blocked gutters, and as such, we will clean and unblock both your gutters and drainpipes to ensure water can flow into your drainage system without impediment.

Solar Panel Cleaning
Solar Panels take a beating, but we don’t really think about them. But they are up on our roofs every day, out in the elements with nothing to protect them against the dust, dirt, debris and the droppings of passing birds.
Solar Panels work at their best efficiency when their entire surface is available to collect the sun’s rays, but if the panels are covered with the detritus of all the things your environment can through at it, there is less surface to collect the sun’s rays.
This could be costing you more money for your energy. So, call us to get your solar panels cleaned and working at their optimal energy levels.

Any company you chose to work on your gutters should be highly experienced, show supreme professionalism, and be trained and skilled for the job at hand. Just as importantly, the contractors who work on your house should be reliable and trust-worthy.
