Home›Gutter Clearing›Fetcham
When a Fetcham gutter starts spilling rain down the wall or a downpipe goes silent in a storm, something is jammed. We dig out the blockage, pull the weeds, open the pipes and get the water flowing where it belongs.
Some gutters only need a light seasonal tidy. Others have been left long enough that the debris has packed down into something closer to soil, with grass and seedlings rooted along the top and outlets sealed shut. That second group is where our gutter clearing Fetcham service comes in. It is designed for gutters that have actually stopped doing their job, whether through neglect, a wild autumn or a single violent storm.
The work starts at the outlets, because there is no point emptying a run if the water still has nowhere to go. We break up the plug at each outlet and the top of the downpipe, then remove the compacted material along the run using our high-reach vacuum, which works from the ground to roughly 12 metres. Material that has hardened is dug out by hand from a properly secured ladder. Each downpipe is then cleared working upwards from ground level until it runs freely. Plenty of homes in the village have mesh, brush or foam gutter guards fitted, and these often trap a layer of silt underneath. We take them off, clear the channel and clip them back in place.
In Fetcham the biggest culprit is simple: trees. Many of the village’s roads were laid out among existing hedgerows and woodland, and decades later those oaks, sycamores, limes and horse chestnuts tower over rooftops. Sycamore helicopters and lime seeds in particular are perfect for jamming outlets, and once a few are wedged in, everything that follows gets caught behind them. Houses on the southern side, closer to Fetcham Downs and Norbury Park, also collect beech leaves and yew needles blown off the slopes.
Moisture adds to the problem. The low ground near the River Mole and the spring-fed Mill Pond holds damp air, which keeps roof moss thriving. Moss dislodged by rain sinks into the gutter and forms a spongy mat that seeds love to grow in. It is common for us to pull young sycamore or buddleia out of Fetcham gutters with roots reaching right along the run.
The local housing makes some homes especially prone to blockages. Bungalows and chalet bungalows, of which Fetcham has many, often have valleys and dormer cheeks that funnel debris into a single corner. Larger detached houses near Cobham Road and the lanes towards Bocketts Farm can have long, hidden rear gutters that nobody notices until water comes through a ceiling. We clear blocked gutters right across the KT22 side of Fetcham and into neighbouring Great Bookham and Leatherhead.
Clearing a real blockage takes a methodical approach, and these are the stages we work through.
Using your photos and a check on arrival, we identify which outlets are sealed, where water is spilling and which downpipes have stopped carrying anything.
Compacted silt, moss mats and rooted plants are broken up and removed by vacuum and by hand. Gutter guards are unclipped and set to one side to be cleaned and refitted.
Downpipes are worked clear from ground level upwards. If water still will not drain, we check whether the blockage sits in the underground drain and tell you.
Guards go back, water is run along each section to show it drains properly, and the area is tidied. You receive photos showing the gutters before and after.

A blocked gutter rarely fixes itself, and the longer it stays full the more strain it puts on brackets, joints and fascias. Book a clearance if you spot any of these around your Fetcham home:
Clearing it now is far easier than dealing with damp patches or rotten timber later.
Blocked gutters range from one jammed outlet to a whole roofline full of plants, so every job is quoted individually from your photos. Factors that affect the price include:

Fetcham has a lot of mature trees in and around gardens, especially near the Downs and Norbury Park, and the damp air near the River Mole encourages roof moss. Seeds, leaves and moss combine into a dense plug at outlets, which is why some homes need clearing more often than gutters in more open areas.
Yes. A standard clean keeps a working system in good order. Clearing deals with gutters that are already blocked or overflowing, so there is more hands-on work: breaking out compacted outlets, pulling rooted plants and unblocking downpipes before the rest of the debris is removed.
Yes. We often remove saplings, grasses and ferns from Fetcham gutters, and we take out the roots too, since leaving them allows regrowth. If roots have pushed a joint apart or bent a bracket, we will show you and can usually fit replacement parts on the same visit.
We do. Guards stop large leaves but let fine silt and seeds through, which builds up underneath over time. We unclip or lift them, clear the gutter beneath and refit them. We have worked with mesh, brush and aluminium guard systems.
Our clearing stops at ground level. We unblock the downpipe itself from the bottom upwards, but if the blockage is in the underground drain, it needs a drainage specialist with rodding or jetting equipment. We will confirm where the problem lies so you are not left guessing.
Yes, most blockages are at the back or sides of a house, so we need safe access through a side gate or passage. If you are out, leave gates unlocked or let us know a code, and make sure there is an outside power socket we can use.
