"Hector is as honest as honest can be. He is straight up in his recommendation, friendly, punctual, and thorough. He knows the products, he cleans up well after the job, and he understands that his job well done, for a reasonable price, will generate recommendations.

"Martin and his crew completed ten very involved projects for us today. We are very pleased with the work as it was done in a very professional manner. Martin indicated they could complete the jobs in one day and they accomplished this. The jobs involved power washing, painting, repair of towel bar, grouting, fixing hinges on a door, repair of garage door frame and cleaning of spindles on the porch. We told Martin that we were very happy with the results and would call him in the future for other projects that might be needed. Richard Huckstadt 5/19/26."
"I hired Nelsonâ s Roofing to replace and pitch my gutters. They arrived on time and did a great job. The company sent Carlos and an assistant. He tightened up the gutters with brackets, made sure the gutters were clean and inspected the roof for me. They cleaned before they left. Both workers were pleasant and very attentive to the repairs. I would definitely hire them again. Also, they did the job for a reasonable price. Thank you for your outstanding service! Lou from the Bronx"
"Responded quickly to my inquiry, and was able to schedule gutter cleaning same day. They did a great job, texted pictures of the work - before and after. While they were cleaning gutters, they found sealant holes around our chimney flashing and gave an estimate to repair which we accepted. Overall, we are very happy with the service. Easy to communicate with as well."
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.
Yes, gutters can still get clogged even with gutter guards installed. While guards significantly reduce the amount of debris that enters your gutters, they are not 100% effective.
Small debris such as pine needles, seedlings, algae, small leaves, and pebbles can pass through the guard's screen or mesh and accumulate over time. Clogs can also form if the guards themselves are not cleaned and become overwhelmed with debris on top, preventing water from entering the gutter.
If this buildup is neglected, it can lead to clogs, water leaks, mold growth, and even plants sprouting from the gutters. The primary benefit of gutter guards is not the complete elimination of maintenance, but a dramatic reduction in how often you need to perform it, often from several times a year to just once a year or less.
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.
Walking on the roof to clean gutters is unsafe and not recommended due to significant safety risks. It is especially dangerous on steep or slippery roofs, or if the roof is wet or covered in leaves, which increases the chance of a fall. In addition to personal injury, walking on the roof can damage shingles, potentially leading to water leaks. Instead of walking on the roof, use a sturdy ladder positioned on a stable surface to access the gutters. Be aware that using a ladder also carries risks, as it can be difficult to maintain balance while performing the work. You can also use ground-based cleaning tools. For safety reasons and to prevent damage to your roof, hiring a professional to clean your gutters is the best and safest option.
Yes, it is generally considered safe to use a leaf blower to clear debris from gutters as long as you are wearing safety goggles and gloves. It's also necessary to have a gutter extension tool. In cases of severe clogs, it's necessary to manually clear debris that cannot be removed by the pressure of the leaf blower. Homeowners should be aware that the incredible power and speed of the output of a leaf blower can blow debris into downspouts. When this happens, water won't be able to flow through the gutters properly. For this reason, many homeowners hire professional gutter cleaners.
