Gutter clearance in Pontyberem

Pontyberem sits further up the Gwendraeth Fawr. It was a coal village, and Pentremawr colliery worked here until the 1970s, so most homes are terraces and semis on the valley sides, with farmland and woodland all around.

With woodland round the village, gutters in Pontyberem fill with leaves, twigs and moss, and a blocked downpipe on a valley side house soon means water pouring down the wall in heavy rain.

Autumn is the time to do it, once the leaves have dropped, so your gutters are clear before the winter rain. Spring is the second best time, to clear what the winter storms brought down.
