Seasonal Guide: Gutter Cleaning and House Washing in Auckland

Maintaining your home in Auckland's ever-changing weather is crucial. Gutter cleaning and house washing are not only essential for preserving the aesthetics of your home but also for preventing damage and maintaining its value. So, when is the best time to get these tasks done, considering the shifts in Auckland's seasons?

The Good ol’ Spring clean: As winter comes to an end and spring begins, there is a renewed sense of energy, life, and a fresh start. This is the ideal time to perform gutter cleaning, as the debris from winter may have caused clogs that can lead to overflow and leaks. By cleaning your gutters early in the spring, you can ensure that rainwater flows smoothly, which is especially important if you rely on a tank water supply and want to collect as much water as possible for the upcoming dry summer months.

Summer BBQs and the Christmas rush: Auckland's sometimes-sunny-summer days are perfect for house washing. A summer house wash revitalises your property's appearance and readies it for the seasons ahead. Getting the work done before Christmas guarantees your home is sparkly and clean for any Christmas parties or summer BBQs at yours. December can be particularly busy for the Squeegee Boys (and probably yourself), so we’d recommend getting your booking in sooner, rather than later.

Falling autumn leaves and wet, windy winters: Autumn usually means falling leaves and more rain. Leaves falling can clog gutters, leading to overflow and damage. Keeping them clear now prevents rainy season troubles. Winter is also an ideal time to evaluate your home for any required upkeep since the damp weather can expose moss and greenery on your property. This can assist in identifying potential damage, planning future maintenance, and getting ready for a successful spring cleaning.
