Gutter cleaning is our second specialty and we pride ourselves on our system of cleaning.
Below is an outline of what you can expect when we come to your home for servicing your gutters.
|
- We start with removing sticks, tree branches, and leaves from your roof. This includes removing leaves and other debris caught behind chimneys and in the valleys of the roof.
On houses with flat roofs or that are less sloped, we use hand held vacuum-blowers.
|
 |
- Next, we remove debris from the gutters by hand, and place into a bucket.
|
 |
- Then we remove any remaining smaller debris, which are difficult to pick up, by flushing gutters with the water, using a garden hose.
- We test all downspouts to ensure their flowage. If downspout is clogged, we will flush it with the water, but if necessary, we will disassemble the downspouts elbow and unclog it. After we finish we will pick up any debris, gutter residue from the cleaning, and take it with us.
- At all times while cleaning the gutters, we are very careful not to stain the walls of your home or the exterior of the gutters. If we do, we promptly clean it up.

Most home experts recommend that you clean your gutters minimum two times each year :
May-June (flowers, twigs, seeds) and
November-December (leaves sticks, pine needles)
Once gutters are flowing properly you can protect them from falling leaves and other debris by installing gutter screens or gutter guards |
