Great service. Good price. Dave was in constant contact as this work is weather dependant…and as soon as he was able, he was onsite early and doing the business. Dave explained in detail how lichen and grunge works, and why water blasting is a no no. Sit back and relax, Auckland’s rain will do the rest. Thanks again for a great job!

We had Dave do our Roof and gutters in preparation for selling. The job was outstanding and very professional. Dave is quick to respond and get the job done and turned up when he said he would. We would highly recommend him and his company to anyone.

Highly recommend Skyhigh Roof and Gutter Cleaning! Great communication and really helpful advice on how to improve our current water tank set up, we wouldn't have known we could fairly simply improve our water quality otherwise. Will definitely be using them in the future.
