MY GUTTER CLEANING EXPERTS
Good to know !!!!
Gutters should be cleaned twice a year, in early spring and late fall. Have your gutters checked to be sure they aren't pulling away from the house. If they are, talk to a gutter installation professional about changing the spikes holding the gutters to screws. Screws do a much better job of holding the gutters in place. Furthermore, make sure your downspouts are clear and not blocked by leaves, and that the water from gutters, downspouts, and around the house flows at least 10 feet away from your house.
Many homeowners prefer to clean their own gutters, while others hire a gutter expert to do the cleaning for a reasonable cost.The cost of hiring a professional to clean your gutters is a pittance compared to the money you'll spend on repairs to your home if they aren't functioning properly.
If you are cleaning the gutters yourself, make sure to check for rusted spots, dents and holes, broken gutter hangers, and disconnected joints. Repair or replace any problem areas.
