Pruning Jasmine

Apologies if these are not the correct plants, I am pretty new to this!
I moved into a new house over winter and didn’t really think too much about pruning the climbers at the back of the garden, however I wish I had.
I believe I have a grape vine, clematis and mainly a Jasmine climbing up the wall at the back of house. Now it’s summer I have realised how deep this climber actually is, it comes out off the wall about 80cm and it needs reducing. Parts look great but when closer it’s green on top and mainly dead leaves and branches underneath. I think the grape vine is covering the bad parts of the Jasmine.
I am really not sure what to do with it. Do I wait under winter and then prune and try and pin it back to the wall. Can I prune it now?
It actually flowered for about a week over summer, could it actually be dying?
Please help!
