"I contacted F and A Window Cleaning to clean our gutters. Alejandro responded right away and came out the following week. They did a great job and showed me the pictures of my clean gutters after they finished. I would use them again. Price $120"
"Yes he did, cleaned gutters and downspouts, add to unscrew the gutter guards that I had bleed underneath them and then reinstall them all and he did a good job"
"Clean Art Works did an excellent job on our gutters. They were on time and the whole crew was very professional and cleaned up after the job was complete. We just had a large thunderstorm and all of the gutters worked perfectly. We're going to use Clean Art for our windows next month."
"The gutters are clean, and needed repairs were made. Sal was upfront about what the cost of repairs would be if required. There was no debris left on the ground when the work was done. We are having Sal and his crew come back in a few weeks after the trees are finished shedding their leaves."
Yes, gutter cleaning methods without using a ladder are available, including:
A curved wand attachment for your hose
Gutter tongs on an extension pole
A leaf blower gutter cleaning kit
Vacuum designed for cleaning gutters
Just be sure that your downspouts are connected and can direct water away from the house if you’re using a water-powered method. This will keep the water from dumping next to the house.
Properly installed gutters should be able to function normally in heavy rains. Allowing water to overflow can cause water damage around your home's basement or foundation. If the overflow is caused by a simple clog, paying a gutter cleaning cost of $125 to $250 may be enough to get the gutters running clear again. If there's a larger issue, you may need to repair or replace your gutters.
Pressure washing isn’t the only way to clean your gutters. Use a hose and a long-handled brush if you aren’t afraid of a little elbow grease. Alternatively, set up a stable ladder and scrub by hand with a brush. It’s also possible to purchase gutter wand extensions for hoses or a gutter vacuum if you don’t mind the investment. These help clean thoroughly without you having to scale a ladder.
At least twice a year, or more if surrounded by trees.
While both underground and above-ground downspout extensions are a step up from no downspout extensions, underground downspouts are better for those looking for a more discreet option. Underground downspouts are hidden away—out of sight, out of mind. You won't be bumping into the extended sections with your lawn mower, nor will you see the downspouts sticking out like a sore thumb.
