gutter repair

I remember someone - perhaps Sean Hodges - recommending someone in Fulham who repaired gutters. I can't track it back through the search facility. Can anyone help?

Katrina:On the back of the Wandsworth Magazine which came through my letterbox today there is an advert for Rooffix which says they do guttering, amongst other things.www.rooffixroofing.co.uk 020 3675 0530 Based in Chiswick.

Normally, gutters get blocked at this time of the year with damp leaves. Often a blast of hot air will help them on their way, in which case might I recommend a certain Mr. Gove, he’s not cheap, or reliable, but absolutely  tanked up to the top and, with a bit of luck, will be desperate for a job shortly. Ps. Don’t turn your back on him.....just saying.Ooh, and make sure he’s not snorting Charley, he’s got a bit of a reputation.Anyway, good luck.

KatrinaI used a firm recommended by Steve and thus far my gutters are holding up well.  I think it's a father (Keith) and son (Richard) operation and their number is 8560 3364. In Septmeber Richard cleaned the gutters and repaired the spot which had been dripping for years. Their company name is in a drawer downstairs. I was pleased with Richard and would use him again.

Sorry, wasn't me. I clamber up my ladder and do my own 😃

Thanks everyone. I'll give Elizabeth's suggestion a call on Monday.

@ Elizabeth. I managed to contact them today eventually by back tracking on the links. The correct number is 8560 3354 not 64. Easily done as I know only too well!Many thanks. They sounds pleasant and efficient and I'm looking forward to their visit.

Sorry about the wrong number Katrina, but I hope they work out for you.  The little dripped puddle under one particular part of the gutter is now dry - allowing for the horrendous rain we keep getting - and I can't remember when it was last dry, such a long time ago.

Thank you Elizabeth and Steve. The gutters were cleaned and repaired today and we were impressed by the service. I'd happily recommend them to others. They're on checkatrade.com  and for more info: Homepride Cleaning Services 0208 560 3354 and 07956 288 060 Richard Cole.

Glad it's sorted, Katrina. I let my problem go on far too long because I didn't know how to find someone reliablle, so I'm grateful to Steve for the original recommndation. I think checkatrade is a good source. My hairdresser recommended her decorator/ handyman whom she found on checkatrade, and I've been pleased with him.

Recent heavy rains have dislodged a lot of moss from my roof, which has either come down the pipe to collect on the drain grill, or just landed in lumps in the back return.
