Gutter and roof cleaning in Robertson

Robertson sits high on the escarpment and catches more rain and mist than anywhere else in the Highlands. The rich red soil and the rainforest remnants around the village are a result of all that water, and so is the moss that grows in gutters, on roofs and across shady decks.

A gutter that holds water here does not just fill with leaves, it turns into a garden. Moss and sludge pack in, downpipes block, and overflowing water runs down walls that already struggle to dry out. Clearing the gutters properly and flushing every downpipe is the first job on most Robertson homes.

Metal roofs grow a green film on the shaded sides and around downpipes, and timber decks go slippery and grey. Pressure cleaning lifts the mould from roofs, decks and paths, and solar panels that sit under a constant film of mist and dust get a gentle wash as well.
