Gutter Maintenance & Cleaning
Gutters may seem like a small part of your glasshouse, but they perform a vital function, managing rainwater runoff and preventing leaks, overflow, and structural damage. At Commercial Glasshouse Contracts Ltd, our gutter maintenance and cleaning service ensures that your drainage systems remain clear, efficient, and reliable all year round.
Blocked or damaged gutters can quickly lead to standing water, corrosion, and water ingress – creating the ideal conditions for mould, disease, and crop loss. Our expert team helps you stay ahead of these issues with thorough inspection, cleaning, and minor repairs as needed.
Neglecting Gutter Maintenance May Result In:
-
Overflowing gutters causing water damage to glazing, frames, and foundations
-
Internal leaks affecting crops, equipment, or electrics
-
Build-up of organic matter promoting moss, algae, or pest infestations, which can result in glass becoming cracked and/or breakages
-
Corrosion of metal components and support structures
-
Increased humidity levels and poor air quality inside the glasshouse
