Why Gutter Cleaning Is Important
Regular gutter cleaning is essential to ensure your gutter system functions properly. Gutters that are clogged with leaves, twigs, dirt, and other debris prevent water from flowing freely, causing overflow that can damage your roof, siding, foundation, and landscaping. Blocked gutters contribute to issues such as basement flooding, wood rot, mold growth, and soil erosion—all of which can lead to expensive repairs.
Maintaining clean gutters protects your property’s structural integrity and helps you avoid the inconvenience and cost of water damage. Clean gutters also help preserve your landscaping by directing water away from plants and soil.
How Often Should Gutters Be Cleaned?
The frequency of gutter cleaning depends on several factors, including the number of trees nearby, the season, and your geographic location. As a general rule, gutters should be cleaned at least twice a year—once in the spring to remove winter debris and once in the fall to clear leaves from autumn.
Properties surrounded by dense trees or located in storm-prone areas may require more frequent cleanings to prevent blockages. Our team can assess your property and recommend a cleaning schedule tailored to your needs.
