East Auckland is full of beautiful, well-kept homes — but it’s also one of the fastest areas in Auckland for gutter clogs to form.
With leafy streets, strong rainfall, and lush gardens, homes in suburbs like Howick, Botany Downs, Flat Bush, and Pakuranga often suffer from:
- Overflowing gutters
- Blocked downpipes
- Moss buildup
- And stormwater running down the walls
If you’ve noticed water spilling over your gutters or green sludge collecting near your eaves, it’s time to act before winter weather makes things worse.
At Metro Water Blasting, we provide professional gutter cleaning services across East Auckland, removing all debris, flushing downpipes, and protecting your home from serious water damage.

Why East Auckland Homes Are at Risk
| Local Feature | Gutter Impact |
|---|---|
| Dense tree coverage | Fast leaf buildup |
| High rainfall zones | Overwhelmed gutters |
| Clay soil | Poor drainage makes runoff worse |
| Two-storey homes | Harder to inspect and maintain gutters manually |
Homes in Dannemora, Highland Park, and Pakuranga Heights regularly experience blocked gutters — often without knowing until a leak appears.

The Hidden Costs of Clogged Gutters
- Roof Leaks – Overflowing gutters push water under tiles and iron flashings
- Ceiling Damage – Soaked insulation and mouldy gib can cost thousands

- Foundation Erosion – Water dumping near the base of the house damages soil and slabs
- Mould Inside Walls – Long-term humidity fosters internal fungal growth
