The Moore & Franks approach in Tiverton
Tiverton's our second base — we keep a landline in town and know its streets well. Set where the Exe meets the Lowman, it's a town of Victorian terraces, old mill-era buildings and big estates, all surrounded by mid-Devon farmland that buries gutters in leaf and seed each autumn. The riverside damp means a blocked downpipe shows up fast as a stain on the render. We clear every gutter with a high-power vacuum from the ground, flush the downpipes, and cart the waste away so nothing's left behind. Moore & Franks are a local family firm with 25 years on Devon roofs and £5m public liability — and Tiverton's right on our doorstep.
The older rendered terraces packed tight through Westexe and Elmore hold moisture in their porous surfaces, and the gutters behind them fill quickly with moss washing off the tiles above. On a terrace, a blocked run does not stay one owner's problem — it overflows along the party wall and marks the neighbour's render too. We clear each length from the ground, empty the shared hoppers, and flush the downpipes so the water is carried clear rather than tracking down the join between houses.
Out toward Chettiscombe and Bolham the stone and cob farmhouses collect moss in every valley and joint, and the mature trees along the Grand Western Canal and the Lowman drop a heavy load into the runs each autumn. Big rural roofs with long gutters need a proper clear, not a quick poke. Our vacuum poles reach the full run from the yard, whatever the span, and we bag the debris rather than leaving it around the farm buildings.
On the higher ground the newer K-Rend estates such as Blundell's Heights discolour within a few seasons, and roof runoff carries that growth straight into deep plastic guttering. Left to overflow, it streaks a pale rendered gable fast. We keep the runs clear and the downpipes flushed so the water stays off the wall. A good number of Tiverton owners have us call back yearly, so it is dealt with ahead of the wet valley winters rather than after the marks appear.
Our Tiverton customers are typically within 25 minutes of our Exeter base. We cover the wider EX16 postcode area and the surrounding villages (Tiverton town centre & Westexe, Grand Western Canal, Blundell's School, Bolham & Knightshayes, Chettiscombe, Elmore).

Frequently asked questions
Quick answers to the questions we get asked the most. If yours isn't here, drop us a line — we reply same day.
A typical house starts at £80 + VAT, with bungalows usually less. Around Tiverton the big farmhouse roofs out toward Bolham, with their long runs, take more time than a town terrace, so we look at the property and set a fixed price before starting.
Westexe, Elmore and the town centre, out to Bolham, Chettiscombe and along the Grand Western Canal. The Blundell's School side and the newer estates included. We come up to Tiverton regularly from our Topsham base, so the EX16 area is well covered.
From the ground, with the vacuum reaching the run and pulling out the packed moss and leaf that spans two properties. We flush the downpipe after. Nothing is leant against the render, which matters on the older porous terraces around Westexe where the fabric marks easily.
Call or message us and we will respond the same day. Tiverton is a straightforward trip from Topsham, and for rural and estate homes alike we can arrange a yearly visit so the gutters are done before the load builds.
