Gutter cleaners remove dirt, grime, moss and other things that can combine to form blockages in your guttering, to make sure rain can drain quickly and reliably.
From time to time, there are less common items plucked from the roofline too. While this is going to be far from an exhaustive list, here are some unexpected finds:
- Tennis balls
One of the more-common-uncommon finds, we assume these come from wayward shots from children's games in the back garden. - Clothes pegs
It does make you wonder how on earth these get so far from the ground, but we've heard that some birds are attracted to the metal clips on plastic clothes pegs when they reflect the sun and get pinched as trophies. It's more plausible than anything else we've come up with! - Plants
If you spend a bit more time looking up than down when you're walking through built up streets, you'll eventually find a poorly maintained property. Eventually, gutters get so gunked up they can support plant growth. It's possible you'll eventually see greenery sprouting in the gutters visible from the ground! - Litter
Whether it's plastic blown in the wind or a thrown McDonalds cup, there are all sorts of rubbish that gets pulled from rooflines by your local gutter cleaning crews in and around Nuneaton, and the one thing they all have in common is that they contribute to poor gutter drainage. - Deceased animals
Occasionally the finds are quite unpleasant, such as animals that have passed away. Rats, birds and insect nests are just a few examples that you maight find attracted to guttering, and inevitably all die at some point. As a result, this can happen in gutters, and if they're not cleaned frequently can be in a decomposing state by the time they're found.
Regular gutter cleaning is the ideal remedy to all of these, allowing obstructions, dirt and debris to be removed before they collectively become a big enough problem to prevent water draining away.
