Project Overview
CF Roofing Ltd was contacted by Leatherhead United Charities regarding persistent gutter leaks and water overflow issues during periods of heavy rainfall at their property in Leatherhead.
A Sky Camera survey was arranged to inspect the guttering system around the building. The footage quickly revealed widespread blockages, with significant vegetation buildup suggesting the gutters had not been maintained for some time.
Challenges
- Blocked gutters causing leaks during heavy rain
- No recent maintenance, leading to significant vegetation build-up
- Limited access—many gutters were situated over three storeys high
- Health and safety concerns around working at height
Our Solution
Following the initial inspection, CF Roofing recommended using our Sky Vac system—an advanced high-reach vacuuming tool designed specifically for safe and efficient gutter clearance.
This system can reach over three floors from ground level, eliminating the need for ladders or scaffolding. It also significantly reduces the risk of slips or falls, allowing our operatives to work safely and confidently from the ground.
Implementation Process
- Sky Camera survey confirmed extensive blockages in hard-to-reach areas
- Sky Vac high-reach vacuuming used to remove compacted debris and vegetation
- No scaffolding or ladders required, reducing disruption and cost
- Site left clear and water now draining correctly through all downpipes
Ongoing Maintenance
Impressed by the speed and safety of the service, the client requested an annual gutter maintenance schedule. CF Roofing proposed a cost-effective plan with visits scheduled after Autumn, once surrounding trees have shed their leaves.
Client Feedback
The client was extremely pleased with how quickly and efficiently the work was completed. They were especially impressed by our ability to access and clean awkward areas without additional access equipment.
