Stephen Fudge, owner of Sutton Coldfield Gutters and former Local Authority Cleaning Inspector

Meet Stephen Fudge

Former Local Authority Cleaning Inspector · Owner-Operated

When you book Sutton Coldfield Gutters, you deal with one person from start to finish. No call centre, no subcontractors — the person who quotes your job is the person who turns up and cleans your gutters.

Stephen spent years as a Local Authority Cleaning Inspector, assessing cleaning standards across public buildings and housing. That inspection background shaped how the business runs: before & after photos exist because he spent years asking contractors for evidence of completed work and rarely getting it.

With more than 25 years in exterior cleaning across the Midlands, customers across Sutton Coldfield get a tried-and-tested process — the same equipment and standards used on thousands of homes. Read more about Stephen and our story →

What to Expect on the Day

Every clean follows the same process — carried out entirely from the ground with SkyVac vacuum equipment. No ladders, no scaffolding, no one on your roof.

1. Before Photos

We photograph every gutter run before we start so you can see the condition and debris level.

2. SkyVac Clean

Industrial suction pulls out moss, leaves, silt and compacted debris from every channel — from the ground.

3. Downpipes Checked

Outlets and downpipes checked to confirm everything is flowing freely once cleared.

4. Damage Flagged

Splits, failed joints, sagging or loose brackets — photographed and pointed out so you can act before they cause damage.

5. After Photos

After photos of every section, so you have proof the job's been done properly.

6. Site Left Tidy

All debris removed — no mess left on your driveway, paths or garden.

Where We Work

We're based on Mere Green Road and cover the whole of Sutton Coldfield and its surrounding suburbs. Wherever you are, the service is the same: ground-level cleaning, fixed pricing, photo proof, and £1M public liability insurance.

Because we're local and owner-operated, there are no call centres and no subcontractors — the person who quotes your job is the person who turns up and cleans your gutters. And there are no travel charges anywhere in our coverage area.

No Ladders, Ever

All our cleaning is done from the ground with SkyVac vacuum poles. That's safer for your property — no ladders against the guttering — and it reaches gutters a ladder never could, including behind conservatories.

Photo Proof on Every Job

Because you can't usually see into your own gutters, we photograph every run before and after. You get clear evidence the work's been done properly, sent straight to you.

All Frequently Asked Questions

Grouped by topic. Can't find your answer? Get in touch and we'll help.

About Us & Trust

Are you insured?

Yes — we carry £1M public liability insurance, and it applies to every job as standard. Proof of cover is available on request.

Do you use subcontractors?

No. The business is owner-operated — Stephen quotes and carries out every job himself. The person you speak to is the person who turns up and does the work.

How long have you been trading?

More than 25 years in exterior cleaning across the Midlands. Before founding the business, Stephen worked as a Local Authority Cleaning Inspector, assessing cleaning standards across public buildings and housing.

Why choose you over a cheaper quote?

Fixed pricing with no hidden extras, before & after photos on every job, no ladders, full insurance, and one owner-operator from quote to completion. You can read what customers say on our reviews page.

Our Method & Equipment

Do you use ladders?

No. We clean entirely from the ground. There are no ladders leaning against your guttering or walls, which is safer for your property and reaches places a ladder never could.

What is SkyVac?

SkyVac is a high-reach gutter vacuum system. Carbon-fibre poles extend from the ground up to the gutter line and vacuum out moss, leaves and silt — so gutters and downpipes are cleared without anyone leaving the ground.

Can you reach high or awkward gutters?

Yes. The vacuum poles extend along the gutter line, so the high, awkward gutters common on three-storey homes, conservatories and extensions are no problem — with no ladder risk to your property.

Can you clean the gutter between my conservatory and the house?

Yes — it's one of the most common jobs we do. That valley gutter sits low and blocks more often than standard runs. We clear it from the ground, so no one walks on your conservatory roof, and the photos show every section.

How do you clean fascias and soffits?

Fascias and soffits are cleaned with water-fed poles and soft brushes from the ground — not the vacuum system we use for gutters. This lifts green algae and black streaks and rinses the boards back to clean white without ladders.

What about blocked downpipes?

Blocked downpipes are cleared from the ground — from the gutter outlet down to the underground gully — then flow-tested to confirm they're running freely again.

Pricing

How much does gutter cleaning cost?

Every quote is a fixed price based on your property — not a vague "from" figure. Bungalows and smaller homes start lower, with larger detached and estate properties priced on the size of the gutter run. See our pricing page for guide costs.

Are there any call-out or hidden fees?

No. There are no call-out charges and no travel charges anywhere in our coverage area. The fixed price you're quoted for the job is all you pay.

What's included in the price?

Clearing all gutter runs, checking downpipes and outlets, flagging any damage, before & after photos, removing all debris, and £1M public liability insurance — all in the quoted price.

Is it cheaper to combine services?

Yes. Booking more than one service in a single visit — say gutters and a downpipe, or gutters and fascias — almost always works out cheaper than separate trips. Just ask when you get your quote.

Booking & Service

How do I get a quote?

Call 0121 405 4252, email info@suttoncoldfieldgutters.co.uk, or use the form on our contact page with your postcode and property type.

How quickly will you respond?

We aim to come back to you quickly — usually the same or next day. The fastest way to reach us is by phone.

Do I need to be home?

Not usually. As long as we have safe access around the property from the ground, we can clean without you being there, and we'll send your before & after photos by email. If there's a locked side gate, we'll arrange access beforehand.

Will I get proof the work's been done?

Yes — before & after photos are included on every job. Because most people can't see into their own gutters, the photos show exactly what was cleared and the finished result.

How often should I have my gutters cleaned?

Most homes benefit from cleaning once a year. Homes with heavy tree cover nearby often benefit from twice-yearly cleaning, particularly after autumn leaf fall.

Can I book a regular or annual clean?

Yes. Many customers book once or twice a year and we get in touch when it's due. Just ask when you contact us.

What's your guarantee?

Every job is backed by our satisfaction guarantee. If something's not right, we'll return and put it right at no extra cost.
