Gutter cleaning: when to hire a professional
Overflowing water, plants growing up top, or a gutter pulling away from the house are all signs it is time.
Signs your gutters need cleaning
- Water spills over the edge when it rains
- Plants or moss are growing in the gutter
- The gutter is sagging or pulling away from the fascia
- Stains appear on the siding under the gutter
Why it matters
A gutter full of wet leaves is heavy. Water that cannot drain runs behind the gutter and into the soffit, the fascia and finally the foundation. In cold cities it freezes and pulls the gutter off the house.
When to call a pro
If your home is two stories or more, or the roof is steep, a professional is the safe choice. We clear the gutters, flush every downspout and send photos of anything that needs a repair.
