During the hot summer months in South Australia the fire danger becomes increasingly higher as the weather warms up. When the gutters and roof and covered with tree debris, especially leaves, gum nuts and branches for large Eucalyptus trees then this creates a huge fire hazard.
Preventing this kind of fire hazard is quite simple. Simply put in place a regular gutter and roof cleaning schedule for your home. Getting up on the roof and cleaning the gutters 2-3 times per year is great physical exercise while taking part in regular fire hazard prevention.
When cleaning the gutters, it is a good idea to also clean of any debris that has built on the roof itself. Bush fires are often started by floating embers falling on some flammable material and igniting. Keeping your home safe from bush fires this year is simple when you contact us at Gutter Guys Adelaide to take care of all the roofing and guttering maintenance.
There are other benefits when it comes to keeping the gutters clean and the downpipes unblocked:
1. Rainwater is much cleaner and healthier when the gutters are regularly cleaned and maintained.
2. Water damage inside of a home is often caused due to the gutters and downpipes have not been regularly cleaned and checked for blockages.
3. Regular gutter cleaning helps to keep pests and vermin out of the gutters and home by ensuring there is no stagnant water or sludge for insects and bacteria to accumulate.
In the past several months there has been quite a number of injuries and death caused by large branches falling from gum tree's. Just last month a 44yr old man was killed under his pergola when a large branch came crashing down and crushed him in his own backyard. This was not the first incident as there has been some severe injuries elsewhere in Adelaide, South Australia due to falling tree branches.
Gum tree's can be particularly brutal to the surrounding commercial and residential properties. They drop large branches that crack roof tiles and dent gutters. All year round gum tree's consistently drop debris such as nuts, leaves and bark. Quite often there is a layer of tree debris all over residential houses, cars and personal property that are locate in the vicinity of a gum tree.
Finding a reputable gutter cleaning service can be difficult when there are large tree's that surround a commercial or residential property. Cleaning the roof gutters when they are filled with leaves, bark, and tree branches is an extremely difficult job to complete properly.
Significant gum tree's have large branches left to grow and grow in the suburbs of Adelaide have been causing damage to homes and vehicles for many years. The Tea Tree Gully local government has become extremely difficult when it comes to approving the removal of "significant" trees in the North Eastern Suburbs. If you need to have a tree removed due to the risk of injury or damage to your home then you can get an application form here and apply to have the dangerous tree tree removed or at least cut back.
It is not just death and injury that these significant tree's keep causing but also severe damage to local houses, roofing and gutters. Large significant tree's and the red tape the TTG Council create to prevent the removal of dangerous tree's is widespread across every local government in South Australia. The council rarely approves the removal of large significant tree's, even when damage is being done to the surrounding residential roofing and guttering.
Don't get me wrong I love large tree's, they create shelter for local Australian wildlife such birds, tree's also purify the air and provide cool protective shade during those scorching Australian summers. However the local councils need to come up with a solution before more people are killed and injured in South Australia. However we come across damaged gutters and roofing every week that has been caused by a significant gum tree.
If you are concerned about a large tree around your home, then visit the local council link above. You can then.download the development application form and also email/ring your local government and start the discussion around your problematic tree's. At Gutter Guys Adelaide we have been cleaning gutters for years and are experienced when it comes to cleaning roofs and gutters blocked up by tree debris.

All good Adelaide gutter cleaning companies can resolve the following questions and problems. Have you had problems with blocked gutters? Do the gutters drip & leak whenever it rains?
If you have the above symptoms on your commercial or residential property, then you need to get the gutters cleaned ASAP! Keeping the gutters clean will prevent future costly water damage.
1. How often should the roof gutters be cleaned?
2. Is it worthwhile installing gutter guards?
3. What causes houses gutters to get blocked?
4. How long does it take to clean the gutters?
1. So how often is a gutter cleaning service required?
This question really does not have a straight forward answer. Depending if you have large tree's located close to the affected property, gutters and roofing should be checked every 12 months.
The pitch of the roofing and the particular guttering profile also plays an important factor when it comes to deciding on a precise time to have the gutters cleaned once per year.
Commercial buildings have large 150 profile box gutters which can handle and expel large quantities of tree debris and other unwanted debris that builds up in the box gutters during summer.
Most guttering systems are designed to handle light amounts of debris and easily expel tree debris and leaf matter through the down pipes and into the storm water catchments.
2. Is gutter cleaning requirements reduced when gutter guards are installed?
This really depends on the situation, the tree's surrounding the property and any other common factors that would increase the effectiveness of gutter guard installations. Gutter guard installations also prevent quick and regular gutter cleaning from taking place.
The different types of gutter protection systems also plays a part when it comes to how well gutter guards work on a property in Adelaide, South Australia. Quite often the leaves build up on top of the gutter protection systems and also requires regular gutter guard and roof cleaning.
3. What causes the house gutters to get blocked up and require gutter cleaning services?
The most common cause of blocked up guttering and blocked up down-pipes is gum tree's. Other tree debris that falls from the surrounding tree's located around the home.
Gum tree's drop bark for about 2-3 months, then gum nuts and gum leaves. Keeping on top of the roof and gutter cleaning will prevent overflowing gutters.
Quite often sporting equipment can block up down pipes rather quickly when there are no tree's around the family home. Common things like tennis balls, floating rubbish like chip packets and plastic bottles.
Keeping the downpipes free from blockages is important when it comes to maintaining the guttering system around our home. Gutter Guys Adelaide can organize gutter cleaning schedules for regular gutter cleaning services.
4. How long does it take to clean the house gutters and roofing.
Gutter cleaning on residential properties can take some time to complete. Estimating the time it will take to clean the gutters will essentially depend on how much tree debris has built up in the guttering and downpipes.
The gutter cleaning on a typical 3-4 bedroom single story home will take 2-3 hours to complete including carports and clearing any blocked downpipes.
Installing The Right Gutter Profiles and Design There are many gutter profiles available when it comes to replacing the gutters and downpipes. Want to know what to do if only small sections of the gutters on the building need to be replaced?

A customer rarely checks that the gutters have been cleaned so what they can see will often reflect the work they cannot see or check.
When working at heights safety is important and with a zero record of accidents other than minor cuts and abrasions Gutter Guys Adelaide have never had a serious work place accident.
All height work above 2.5 meters requires one height safety supervisor with a yellow card, (boom lift/harness line training) previous working at heights experience and accredited training.
The following points are a general guide customers, employees, commercial gutter cleaning contracts and subcontractors regarding the safety standards we have when working on roofs and cleaning gutters:
1. Always remain aware of immediate surroundings when working on roofs. Look for obstacles on like air-cons or power lines and any other thing, substance or object that covers the roofing ie (gum nuts/tree branches)
2. Wear a harness kit wherever possible when working at heights above 2.5 meters or wet weather. Sometimes this is impracticable or impossible so speak to the height supervisor.
3. Wear comfortable enclosed sports shoes with good grip and laces done up tight, preferably leather. (no work boots)
4. Minimize ladder use. Most height accidents occur getting on and off ladders. Extension ladders require 2 people at all times and should be tied down where possible.
5. Carry minimum loads when working on ladders or above 2.5 meters. Keeping yourself on the ladder should take up 100% of your concentration.
6. Yellow work shirts and jackets are required to be worn at all times unless the weather is above 30 degree's Celsius.
7. Never enter a customers/clients home, avoid looking inside and using customers equipment. If invited inside politely decline. If absolutely necessary, two employee's must be present. Gutter Guys Adelaide work with a wide range of "vulnerable" clients and customers.
8. Keeping a means of communication at all times on person ie mobile phone or two way radio for emergencies and communication. (no shouting from roof tops)
9. Take the time to safely get on and off the ladder onto the roofing. When working from the ladder ensure the reaching from side to side is kept to one lose arms reach. No over reaching as this can cause ladders to slide to the left or right.
When Working On Roofs and Gutters.
Moving around safety on difficult roofing. The best way to work on a roof is to locate a good place to place tools and rest without having to think about falling.
The best places on most difficult and steep pitched roofing is the valley. These often need cleaning as well but are great to travel around in, when the roof is steep pitched. Valleys like the one in the image to the left often collect up debris like tree branches and leaves.
This is a notorious spot for roof leaks as the water overflows when it cant free flow down the roof valleys into the guttering system.
When seated in a valley like this one, you can safely move yourself up and down while seated in the roof valley.
The image is pretty extreme and likely a broom would clear out the valley of tree debris standing from the ladder. However occasionally it will be required to climb into a roof valley similar to the one pictured.
Keeping Guttering Equipment Neat and Tidy When Roofing.
Having tools and other equipment scattered around the roof like buckets is a recipe for a roofing accident.
Buckets often blow around in the wind or tools get left behind when the workplace is not kept tidy and organized.
Keeping the roofing clear and free from obstacles as much as possible will eliminate tripping accidents and equipment falling off the roof. Always ensure the roof line is free of obstacles.
Equipment used for the guttering or roofing work is to be neatly located on the roof, usually close to the ladder for quick access and removal.
