Gutters and downpipes cleared by hand and flushed through while we watch, and patios, paths, decking and driveways jet washed back to the colour you'd forgotten they were. The outside jobs that only get worse if they wait.
Every handyman is DBS-checked, reference-verified and uniformed before they work in your home.
You know what the job costs before we pick up a tool. No hourly meter, no surprise on the invoice.
A fully stocked electric van means the whole list gets done in one visit, not spread across three appointments.
Plenty of gutter clearing is scooping out the visible debris and leaving. If the downpipe is still blocked further down you'll be calling someone back in a fortnight, in the rain.
Debris lifted out and bagged rather than flicked over the garden. Moss, silt, leaves and the nesting material that quietly builds up behind the fascia.
Water put through every run and every downpipe while we watch it discharge at the bottom. That's the only way to know the whole system is clear, not just the bit you can see.
We'll tell you about a cracked joint, a sagging bracket or a leaking seam while we're up there. Small fixes we'll do on the spot; bigger ones we'll quote rather than surprise you with.
The exterior maintenance that protects the fabric of the building. Neglected gutters cause damp walls and rotten fascias, and both cost far more to fix than clearing them.
Full length cleared by hand, debris bagged and taken away, and every run flushed and watched to confirm it discharges properly.
Blockages cleared from the pipe itself, including the gulley at the bottom, which is where a surprising number of overflows actually originate.
Loose brackets refixed, leaking joints resealed and slipped sections realigned so water runs to the outlet instead of pooling.
Paving, slabs, block paving and paths washed back to the stone. Algae, moss and years of ingrained grime lifted rather than smeared around.
Driveways brought back to their original colour, and decking cleaned at a pressure the timber will take without furring the surface.
Rendered walls, brickwork, garden walls, fence panels and wheelie bins washed down as part of a wider exterior clean.
Gutters are the classic out-of-sight job. The first sign of trouble is usually water running down the wall, and by then there's already a damp patch inside.
After leaf fall and again before summer. Two visits a year keeps the system running and the fascias dry, which is far cheaper than replacing either.
An overflowing gutter or a wet patch on the render means the system has already failed somewhere. Worth clearing before it becomes damp indoors.
A jet-washed patio and clear gutters change how a property photographs and how a survey reads. One of the cheapest things you can do before marketing.
The questions most people ask before letting a tradesman up a ladder on their property. Answered upfront.
Every handyman is DBS-checked, reference-verified and turns up in Willow Alexander uniform in a branded van. You know who's at the door before you open it.
Comprehensive public liability and accidental-damage cover on every visit. Certificates available on request, and standard issue for letting agents who ask.
You get a figure for the work before we start. If the job turns out to be bigger than the photos suggested, we stop and tell you rather than quietly running up the clock.
Dust sheets down, offcuts and packaging taken away, and the floor left as we found it. The job isn't done until the room is usable again.
A direct line to price a gutter clear, book a patio wash, or set up a twice-yearly visit.
Priced by the property and the length of the run. Most clients settle into a spring and autumn rhythm once they've had it done properly once.
A single visit — full clear, flush and run test, with debris taken away and any faults reported back to you.
Spring and autumn on a standing date, so it happens without you having to remember. The approach that actually protects the building.
The full exterior reset in one visit: gutters cleared and the patio, path and driveway washed. Better value booked together.
We work from ladders and safe access equipment. Anything needing scaffolding or roof access beyond safe ladder reach is outside what we take on, and we'll tell you upfront.
Tell us what needs doing and the office will come back with a fixed price and a slot that suits you.
Terraces in Greenwich and Dulwich, detached houses across Bromley, Chislehurst and Sevenoaks, and everything with a tree near the roofline.

“Replaced my shower curtain and rail with a glass screen, easy to book and cleared up after the job was finished. Would use again for other bits that are outside of my DIY capabilities.”
“What a lovely man! Thank you for coming to fix my skirting boards and with a smile. I'll be using Willow Alexander again and just saw they clean windows too!”
“Low-tox, plant-based products and a fully electric fleet. A lighter footprint, for the same high standard of clean.”
