"Appointment scheduled, they showed up as promised and cleaned the gutters for a good price, like they have done for several years. I called to report that one downspout was left clogged and gutters were overflowing. They promised to come and fix the issue. Never did. I will likely give them a pass since they have been good for several years, but it's just not good customer service to not follow through with an unhappy customer."

"We've had only great experiences with Fortuna Gutters. We have know one of the owners for several years and can vouch for his honesty and integrity. They recently cleaned our dryer vent and ductwork and did a great job at a reasonable price. They were professional and followed through on everything we discussed. I highly reccomend."

"Couldn't have been happier. I called the company at 7:10 and the crew was at our door one hour later. We had thought that the downspouts needed repair but they found only sludge which plugged up the downspouts in three different areas. They checked out the gutters and downspouts and cleaned them. Am glad we found Hennelly."

"I agree with all the other reviewers. Everardo was prompt, professional and extremely thorough in power washing our house. He meticulously got every part of the house from top to bottom sparkling clean. The price was resonable for such a complete job and we are thrilled with the results. We will definitely hire him again. He is going to come back to clean the gutters as well."

No pricing issues as I have utilized their services through their advertized deal. I will be very happy to use their services again. Thank you, A-Z Cleaning Services for your valuable service."

Gutter Cleaning questions, answered by experts

If you want to avoid burying your downspouts, several alternatives can help direct water away from your home's foundation. One option is to connect a rain barrel to your downspout. During a storm, the barrel collects water that you can later use for irrigating your lawn or garden. Another common solution is to install an above-ground downspout extension. This can be done in a couple of ways:

  • Splash Guards: Placing a splash guard, available at most hardware stores, under your downspout can act as a simple funnel to direct water away from the house.

  • Downspout Extensions: You can add an extension to the end of the downspout's elbow to carry water further into your yard. Some extensions are flexible, allowing you to maneuver them around landscaping.

These above-ground solutions are particularly useful if your home has a slab foundation that you cannot dig up. However, they have limitations. An extension may not move water as far from your home as an underground system. More importantly, if your yard slopes back toward your house, these methods will be ineffective, and burying your downspouts remains the best option to prevent potential flooding and water damage.

Gutters overflow in heavy rain for several reasons. The main reasons why your gutters could be overflowing in heavy rain include:

  • Not enough downspouts to effectively remove water from your gutters

  • Too small of a gutter width—the average gutter size is four to six inches

  • Clogged gutters

  • Incorrect slope

If you believe your gutters were installed incorrectly, it’s a good idea to know who to call for gutter leaks. Speak with a local gutter specialist to get to the bottom of your gutter system to stop water from flooding your property or yard ASAP.

Any small amount of standing water can be damaging to your gutters. It’s recommended that a ¼ inch puddle or more should be addressed. Failure to keep water from pooling in your gutters can result in clogs, algae growth, and pests that damage your gutters over time. 

The most common problem with gutters is clogging from debris like leaves, blossoms, and seeds from surrounding trees. This debris can block downspouts, leading to improper drainage and water overflow.

Other common issues include:

  • Leaks and holes, which can often be repaired with gutter sealant or caulk.

  • Rust, sagging, or detachment from the roofline.

  • Damage from strong storms.

  • Improperly pitched gutters that don't drain correctly.

Regular cleaning in the spring and fall is the best way to prevent most of these problems. You may need to clean them more often during periods of heavy leaf fall.

Hiring a local gutter cleaner costs an average of $119 to $228. For many homeowners, it’s worth bringing in a pro to make sure there’s a regular cleaning schedule and that the job is done thoroughly. A pro can also inspect your gutters and roofline and flag any issues before you start experiencing costly mold, rot, or water damage.
