"Greg Howell diagnosed the issue and took pictures and explained to me the issue that is more related to roofing than gutter or downspout drain. He is knowledgeable, humble, respectful and caring person, trustworthy and reliable. He helped me understand the problem and also suggested who can fix it and what I should be looking for when I hire the person. I really appreciate him taking the time to diagnose the issue. It is indeed a big help. Thanks Greg!"
"LeafFilter doesn't clean gutters, they sell and install their LeafFilter Gutter products and only clean the gutters if you buy their product. I can't even begin to afford their product so I wasn't able to get my gutter cleaned by them."

The cost to install a downspout extension or reroute a downspout generally falls between $30 and $200. The final price depends on factors like whether you DIY the project or hire a gutter professional, the complexity of your gutter system, and the length of the new extension. A simple, above-ground DIY installation can cost as little as $30 for materials. In contrast, a more complex project involving professional installation and digging trenches for underground piping could cost over $1,000. This is still a significant saving compared to replacing your entire gutter system, which costs around $1,900 on average.
Regular cleaning, checking for leaks, and applying protective coatings help prevent corrosion.
Regular cleaning, applying rust-resistant coatings, and checking for leaks help extend their lifespan.
The best times of year to clean your gutters are typically in the spring and fall. Cleaning in the fall is crucial for removing leaves and debris that have accumulated, which helps prevent clogs. A spring cleaning ensures your gutters are clear and prepared for seasonal rainfall.
As a general guideline, experts recommend cleaning your gutters at least twice a year. However, the optimal frequency depends on several factors, such as local weather patterns, the type of gutters you have, and the number of trees on your property. If your home is surrounded by many large trees or pine trees, you may need to clean your gutters as often as every three to four months. If you have few or no trees nearby, twice a year is likely sufficient. In some cases, you may need to clean them a couple of times during the fall and spring to keep them clear and allow water to flow freely.
Regular cleaning, checking for leaks, and ensuring that downspouts direct water away from the foundation help prolong gutter life.
