Professional Guttering and Drain Cleaning by Safeguard Contractors

At Safeguard Contractors, we understand that a well-maintained guttering and drainage system is essential for protecting your home or business from water damage. From our base in Brighton, we provide professional gutter cleaning, repair, and installation services across the surrounding areas, including Hove, Worthing, Lewes, Eastbourne, and Haywards Heath.

Our experienced team specialises in keeping your property’s roofline system clean, functional, and watertight. Over time, gutters and drains can become blocked with leaves, moss, and debris, preventing rainwater from flowing freely. If ignored, this can lead to leaks, damp, and even structural problems.

Our guttering and drain cleaning services are designed to prevent those issues before they start—helping you avoid costly repairs and maintain your property’s value and appearance all year round.

The Importance of Regular Gutter and Drain Maintenance

Your gutters and drains play a vital role in directing rainwater away from your roof and foundations. When these systems become clogged, water can overflow and cause damage to walls, roofs, and basements. In colder months, standing water can also freeze, leading to cracked pipes and further deterioration.

Routine cleaning and maintenance keep your drainage system working efficiently and prolong the life of your roofline components. At Safeguard Contractors, we recommend scheduling professional cleaning at least once or twice a year, particularly after heavy rain or autumn leaf fall.

Our expert team provides thorough inspections and maintenance services to ensure your gutters, downpipes, and drains are free from obstructions and in perfect working condition.

Gutter Cleaning and Debris Removal

Over time, gutters naturally collect debris such as leaves, moss, and dirt, which can block water flow and cause overflow. Our professional gutter cleaning service ensures that every section is cleared and working efficiently.

We use safe, non-invasive methods to clean gutters thoroughly without damaging your property. Our team can access even hard-to-reach areas safely, removing all debris by hand or with specialist equipment.

After cleaning, we flush your guttering system to confirm that water flows smoothly through the downpipes and away from your building. Regular cleaning is one of the simplest and most effective ways to prevent leaks and damp.

Gutter Repairs and Replacement

If your gutters are cracked, sagging, or leaking, they may need repair or replacement. Damaged gutters can cause significant issues, including staining on walls, dampness, and erosion near the foundations.

We offer professional gutter repairs for all materials, including uPVC, aluminium, and cast iron. Our team will assess the extent of the damage and recommend the most suitable repair option—whether that’s resealing joints, replacing brackets, or installing new sections.

If your system is beyond repair, we can install a complete new guttering solution that suits your property’s style and requirements. All installations are carried out to the highest standard, using durable materials designed for long-lasting performance.

Downpipe and Drain Cleaning

Blocked downpipes and drains can prevent rainwater from escaping properly, leading to overflows and water pooling near your property. Our team offers professional downpipe and drain cleaning to keep your system clear and efficient.

We use a combination of manual and pressure-based cleaning techniques to remove blockages and ensure smooth water flow. During each visit, we also check for leaks, corrosion, or signs of wear, allowing you to address issues before they become serious problems.

New Guttering Installations

In addition to cleaning and repairs, we also provide new guttering installations for properties in need of a full upgrade. Our systems are available in a range of styles, materials, and colours to complement your home or business.

Options include:

  • uPVC guttering – durable, low maintenance, and cost-effective
  • Aluminium guttering – lightweight and rust-resistant for long-term reliability
  • Cast iron guttering – traditional, robust, and perfect for heritage properties

All new systems are fitted with precision and care, ensuring a watertight finish that enhances your roofline and provides years of dependable service.

Soffits, Fascias, and Roofline Maintenance

Your guttering works in conjunction with other key roofline components such as soffits and fascias. We also offer installation, repair, and maintenance services for these features, ensuring your roofline remains both functional and attractive.

By keeping your entire roofline in top condition, you can protect your home from moisture, pests, and general deterioration while improving its kerb appeal.
