What We Do

At Suck It Up, we offer quality Gutter Cleaning services to the Kerikeri and wider Bay of Islands area. Our modern Gutter Cleaning equipment allows us to clean out your gutters from the safety of the ground, eliminating the need to get on your roof.  This not only eliminates safety related issues but also keeps the costs down as scaffolding is not required, the risk of causing damage to your roof and gutters is also eliminated.


We also offer chimney sweeping and water tank cleaning as part of our services.  ​Chimneys should be cleaned at least once a year and inspected for safety.  This is often a pre-requisite for your home insurance policy if you have a wood burning fire in your home.  We are members of the New Zealand Home Heating Association and have completed the necessary training required to be able to carry out these tasks.​Water tanks should also be cleaned regularly.  It is crucial to ensure that the roof, guttering, pipes and other elements used in rainwater collection do not contaminate the water before it goes into the storage tank.​

Contamination of a tank water supply may be caused by:

  • animal or bird faeces entering at the source of the supply. These can carry harmful germs such as Cryptosporidium, Giardia, Campylobacter, Salmonella, E.coli 0157 and viruses. All these germs can cause serious illness
  • bird, possum or other animal droppings on the roof or dead animals and insects in the gutters or tank itself
  • decomposing organic matter such as leaves, soil, and other debris entering the tank
  • volcanic and wood ash, agrichemical spraydrift, dust from gravel roads and chemical residues from road vehicle emissions


Its Time to Clean Those Gutters!

Cleaning your gutters is one of those maintenance jobs that nobody really likes doing so it tends to be put off and put off until it becomes a real problem.  It can be a messy, time consuming and dangerous job however we have the right equipment to get the job done safely and efficiently without needing to get onto your roof.
If neglected, blocked gutters can result in damage to your home, leading to unnecessary and expensive repairs.  Frequently the problem may not be detected until the gutters and down pipes become blocked, leading to overflows.  Dirt, leaves, moss and debris will build up over time and will badly restrict the water flow.  Water pooling and saturated debris can become very heavy to the point that gutters can become warped and break free of their retaining clips.  The gutters will then begin to sag which only worsens the problem and leads to further damage.
