Gas Maintenance and Repairs Gutter and Down Pipe Clearing
Check that gas installers are on the GASsafe register – a legal
requirement. See www.gassaferegister.co.uk for details. Blocked gutters can lead to damp problems and damaged
brickwork potentially costing thousands. An annual gutter
clean of tree debris and moss helps prevent this problem.
