Gutter cleaning is an important part of home maintenance and keeping your home safe from water damage and other complications. The gutter system is part of your home’s exterior that moves water away from the foundation, preventing water from seeping into the walls, basement, and other parts of your home.

Unfortunately, gutters are prone to clogging from debris such as leaves, dirt, twigs, and bird nests. This can cause water to overflow, which can lead to water damage, mold, and other costly repairs. To prevent these issues, it is important to regularly clean your gutters.

Gutter cleaning should be done at least twice a year, though in some cases you may need to clean them more often if you live in an area with heavy foliage or other debris. The best time to clean your gutters is in the late fall and early spring when the weather is cooler, as the weather can be too hot to climb up a ladder in the summer months.
