Protecting Homes in Ashton-under-Lyne.
John Rhodes Cleaning Services Ltd has been providing specialist gutter clearance across Ashton-under-Lyne since 2014. Traditional Victorian terraced homes in Waterloo and Cockbrook often feature slate roofs that naturally shed moss directly into the gutter lines. Left untouched, this organic debris traps heavy Northwest rain, creating water weight that pulls gutters away from the fascia boards and causes internal damp issues.
Our professional local team uses industrial-strength, high-reach vacuum suction alongside hands-on manual clearing to ensure every gutter run is perfectly clean. We don't just 'scoop and go' like standard window cleaning rounds. We physically flush your downpipes, clear the offsets, and run flow tests to guarantee your drainage works flawlessly before we pack away our vans. We cover all estates including Hartshead, Taunton, Guide Bridge, and Hazelhurst.
Why It Matters: The Danger of Blocked Gutters
Internal Water Ingress
Blocked gutters lead to water overflowing back behind the fascia board, penetrating roof timbers, and creating plaster rot on internal walls that can cost thousands to fix.
Foundation Saturated Damp
Silt and moss blockages force massive volumes of rainwater to dump straight down the side of your brickwork, saturating your foundations and resulting in rising damp.
Our Step-by-Step Gutter Process
Comprehensive Survey: We assess your roofline from the ground, identifying weak spots, leaking seals, and major organic blockages around high-risk valley outlets.
Extraction & Clearance: Using heavy-duty gutter vacuums and hands-on detailing, we clean away all moss, dense silt, and nested weeds directly down to the bare plastic.
Downpipe Down-flushing: We inspect every vertical pipe drop. If a downpipe is blocked, we run snake rods to break the plug and clear the path to the drain.
Final Flow Testing: We run water down your gutter channels to prove that your roofline system operates exactly as it was designed to under heavy Northwest rain.

How often should I get my gutters cleared?
We recommend a full clearance at least once per year, typically in late autumn. If your property in Ashton is near large trees, a bi-annual check is better to prevent winter ice blocks and heavy rain overflows.
What happens to the debris you remove?
We never leave a mess. All silt, moss, and leaves extracted from your gutters are bagged and removed from your premises as part of our standard service. Your garden and driveway are left spotless.
Are you insured for high-reach work in Ashton?
Yes. We are fully insured up to £5 million public liability to work at heights up to 60ft, covering everything from standard 2-storey houses to larger commercial units across Tameside.
