"We put the gutters on in 2005. He cleaned them 11 years later. Sections of the gutters had been black, and there was a black spot in the gutters on the front of the house. The black spot was very obvious when you came to the house. He cleaned the gutters front and back, and the gutters looked brand new! We feel like if anyone is trying to sell their house, having someone clean the roof, siding, and gutters is an excellent thing to do. It makes the house look brand new as well. Our siding looks wonderful too! Everything looks great."
"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."
"I had gutter screens installed recently. The team showed up when promised. They did a very neat job and cleaned up before they left. I would highly recommend this company."
"Company was very easy to work with. New gutters and covers installed within 3 hours. Oscar crew did a great job and cleaned up well. Thank you, very pleased."
"Always keeps good communication about what days they can come. With bi weekly maintenance and other small projects such as gutters, bushes, and such I can honestly say I'm satisfied with the service especially for the price. Would recommend to anyone"
"Hired TruShine to clean the outside of my house and it looks amazing! Zeph was on time and gave a very reasonable price to have my house done. Will definitely be calling him again if we have anymore needs"

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.
Using less toilet paper is the easiest way to prevent future clogs. Also, avoid flushing sanitary products, thick paper towels, or hair down the toilet. If you’ve been using a brick in the tank to reduce the water used to flush the toilet, take it out immediately. Bricks will eventually fall apart and clog your toilet drain. Keeping your toilet lid closed also helps avoid future clogs.
Gutters should be cleanedat leasttwice a year, in the spring and in the fall, to remove the debris from trees that can clog the eavestroughs and downspouts. Debris like leaves, twigs, and seed pods can build up and cause your gutters to overflow, potentially causing damage to your roof and foundation. Water backing up under the shingles can rot the edge of your roofline. Overflow water falling next to your foundation can end up leaking into your basement or crawl space.
Absolutely—and lots of it. Overflowing water from your gutters can damage your siding and your roof. All of the moisture getting into the cracks and crevices of your home can lead to mold or mildew problems down the line. In addition, when water pools around your home, it needs a place to go—and sometimes it ends up inside the house, creating a very unwanted flood.
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.
