We strive to provide an excellent service in the most efficient way we can. In most cases we will blow debris out of the gutters with leaf blowers, clean up all debris at ground level and remove from site. Sometimes we will need to remove debris from the gutters by hand and bag all debris before removing. Usually only when debris are too wet in order to prevent excessive mess.

In most cases we recommend a regular cleaning schedule as the best solution, however in some cases if the amount of leaf fall is too high it can make a gutter cleaning schedule unrealistic and expensive. In these cases, installing gutter guard can extend the period of time needed between cleans for a more reasonable clean schedule.
REMEMBER gutter guard in NOT a set and forget product. No matter what you are told, if you neglect getting your gutters cleaned you could be up for an extremely expensive clean price as often a forest starts to grow in the gutters.
The cost of completely lifting gutter guard to remove moss,soil and plants can be 3 times the cost of a standard clean.

Working at heights has many risks and is one of the most dangerous industries to be in.
With this in mind we have started to offer installations of anchors to try providing a safe working environment not only for us but for anyone who may provide services on your roof.
We are certified installers of several fall arrest anchor points and carry out refresher courses on these products regularly to ensure the best service possible. These products are non-invasive and carry a 10-year warranty on all hardware.
These anchors all comply with current Australian standards, but as with all thing they do require regular inspection and certification. (see the following info for more on this.)
MAINTENANCE/USAGE
ALL ANCHORAGES MUST BE INSPECTED EVERY TWELVE MONTHS, INSPECTIONS NEED TO BE CARRIED OUT BY A COMPETENT HEIGHT SAFETY INSTALLER.
Procedures to be followed at inspection time:
Visually inspect anchors for signs of deterioration. The FrogLink/TileLink anchor point has two energy absorbing regions and two stabilising joins which hold the eyelet in place during use. If these energy absorbing regions are expanded this will indicate the anchor point has arrested a fall. Similarly, if the two stabilising joins have been broken this would also indicate the FrogLink/TileLink has arrested a fall and should be replaced.
Visually inspect the components of the anchor for corrosion, superficial surface marking is permitted while deeper corrosion or pitting would require attention..
Visually inspect the rubber hat washer and waterproofing components to ensure it has remained sealed.
Visually inspect the attachment component of the anchorage where practically possible.
Visually inspect the parent structure for modifications or deterioration which might lead to loss of anchorage strength.
A personal energy absorber or a fall-arrest device with a personal energy absorber must be used in conjunction with all SafetyLink Anchorages and Lifeline systems.
USER COMPETENCE
A fall-arrest system is intended to safely stop a worker falling an uncontrolled distance and reduce the impact of the fall. This system must only be used if it is not reasonably practicable to use higher level controls or if higher level controls might not be fully effective in preventing a fall on their own. Any fall-arrest or rope access anchor system must only be used by a competent person. Any person accessing any anchor of safe roof access system (sras) must provide any and all proof of training and or competecnce of working at heights.
