FAQ
We are happy to answer ANY question! Don't see yours here? Please Contact us!
HOW OFTEN SHOULD YOU HAVE YOUR GUTTERS CLEANED?
I suggest a minimum of 1 time per year. If however you have alot of trees in your surrounding area, there are times that it is suggested to clean them 2 times per year…..once in the Spring and once in late fall after the leaves have fallen. Each home presents a different scenario. We will make our recommendations, then let you make the final decision with no pressure tactics.
HOW DO YOU KNOW WHEN IT’S TIME TO CLEAN YOUR GUTTERS?
In addition to your annual gutter cleaning, we also suggest gutter cleaning if:
Water doesn’t drain from your downspouts
You can see leaves and debris hanging over your gutters
You have plants growing in your gutters
Your gutters begin to sag
WHAT HAPPENS IF YOUR GUTTERS ARE CLOGGED?
If your gutters are full of sticks, leaves, and other debris, the gutters can’t do their job and keep water away. When your gutters are clogged, there’s nowhere for the water to go, except over your gutters. Now instead of water running down the downspouts and away from your house, the water runs down the side of your home. This can lead to expensive problems, such as:
Ice dams
Rotted soffits and facia
Rotted gutters
Insect infestation
Cracked or leaking foundation
And the added weight from the debris in your gutters can also cause your gutters to pull away from your home causing a number of other problems, such as water not going where you want it to go, mold and mildew.
WHAT SHOULD YOU DO ABOUT YOUR DIRTY GUTTERS?
When it comes to gutter cleaning, you have two options:
You can climb up on a ladder yourself, get all dirty, and risk injury or, better yet, You can hire me and I’ll take care of the dirty work….meaning clean your gutters and/or install gutter guards..

Yes, I am an owner/operator business. There’s nothing better than having the owner who cares about the business on every job. I guarantee professional service by myself!

WHAT HAPPENS IF I WANT TO BE HOME WHEN YOU ARE THERE?
I do my best to accommodate this request by giving you the time that I am able to be at your residence. You are more than welcome to watch us professionally clean your gutter system and/or install gutter guards.
Yes Please. If I need additional hose, I have hoses with me on each project. If water is not available, the best I can do is blow out the gutter with my leaf blower. Water is better but we can work with you if this is not an option
DO I NEED TO LEAVE THE WATER ON?
HOW DO YOU CLEAN THE GUTTERS?
Sometimes we hand scoop, sometimes we use water, sometimes we use a leaf blower. Each home and gutter system have unique aspects and we try to use the method that is cleanest and safest for each property.
DO YOU DO REPAIRS?
Yes, we perform minor repairs to gutters and can make recommendations when we come to give a quote. Common issues are the need for additional hangers, caulking of joints, adding drip edge extensions to prevent water from running behind the gutters, repairing small holes and more. All repairs will be quoted before we start your project and you at that time can let us know what you would like us to do.
DO YOU REPLACE /FIX DOWNSPOUTS?
Yes and that can be discussed if we see an issue at time of quoting your project.
