Gutter Cleaning questions, answered by experts

The term "gutters" actually refers to a full system of pieces that help to keep aluminum gutters in place. The other parts needed when installing gutters include end caps, hangers, fasteners, end caps, and downspouts. For most homes, it's necessary to space downspouts every 30 to 40 feet.

Regular cleaning, checking for leaks, and ensuring that downspouts direct water away from the foundation help prolong gutter life.

It can be worth painting gutters if they look worn and old but are still functioning properly. Gutters should define and complement your roofline, not detract from the look of your home. Rust can be treated and potentially removed before repainting, but severely rusted gutters may need to be replaced instead. If your gutters simply aren't functioning, try cleaning them out.

While gutters really only offer pros without any cons, some people dislike the appearance of gutters. Upgrading to an architectural option can help you to reduce the eyesore caused by mainstream gutters. In addition, some types of gutters are prone to expanding, contracting, or sagging if they aren't properly maintained. If enough weight builds up within a gutter system, your gutters can begin to pull away from your home.

You can remove your gutters before painting, but it's rarely required. It can be easier to paint gutters on the ground once you or a pro have removed them, but replacing them afterward can be challenging. In these cases, removing gutters may be impractical. Make your decision based on your comfort level and abilities.
