"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. We hired Hector to clean our gutters and replace the old & failing gutter covers that were on the house when we recently bought it. I can definitely recommend him for any gutter-related jobs."
"This company replaced my old gutters with much higher quality ones in a half a day. They did outstanding job. Highly recommended for any work related to gutters. The crew arrived on on time, removed old gutters, taking care not to damage anything and expertly installed new seamless gutters."
"The repairs, the clean-up, and the pleasant experience exceeded my expectations. A large oak tree fell on our roof, breaking through roof rafters and ceiling joists with branches in the bedroom. It is an older house with loose fill insulation in the attic. As soon as the tree was removed, Steve's crew covered the gaping hole with a tarp and did the interior carpentry to replace the rafters and joists. They also cleaned up in the bedroom everyday so that I did not have to call a clean-up company The entire roof and chimney flashing was replaced. The estimate that was provided for the repair was not questioned by the insurance company, It was a pleasure to deal with Steve. He is pleasant, and always responsive to phone calls and emails. My first experience with Steve was at my daughter's newly purchased house to waterproof a stone chimney. Her "house inspector" said that the two color stone was because they came from different parts of the quarry. Steve correctly diagnosed that a new cap was needed and that water was seeping in from the top. Problem solved- the stone dried up in a couple of weeks and is now the same color on the whole chimney. I recommend Angus Theriault without reservation."
"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"
"Very good communication and prompt timing. Overall pleased with the work! Ron was a gentleman l would definitely recommend. I had my house, fence and gutters cleaned. The fence was spotless."
"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."
"I had a broken gutter that was lying on the ground which was torn down from the last snowstorm. Mark and his team came on the same day I called, and replaced a gutter as well as cleaned all of my gutters and fixed the gutters extensions, so the water would be dispensed away from the house. They did an amazing job. I will definitely use them again and recommend the services."
On a typical three-bedroom home, gutter cleaning takes about one hour. For larger homes, especially those with multiple stories, the job can take two to three hours. The time required may increase if the gutters need extensive cleaning, the roof is steep, the gutters are hard to reach, or if gutter guards need to be uninstalled and reinstalled.
It’s recommended that you clean your gutters after a severe storm, however, regular storms don’t raise the same concerns. Look for signs your gutter might need cleaning after a harsh storm. Do you see broken branches and excessive leaves all over your yard? Chances are your gutters caught quite some debris. Also, ensure a few drying days before cleaning your gutters. Dry debris is much easier to clean.
It is not recommended to clean gutters, or do any work on your roof for that matter, without the use of a ladder. Please make sure you have a spotter and avoid slippery surfaces when performing this task.
Frequently, when water flows over gutters, it indicates a potential clog, necessitating cleaning. For instance, if a twig becomes lodged in the downspout, it can lead to a traffic jam, causing more leaves and sticks to accumulate. Another potential issue is an incorrect pitch, as gutters should channel water toward the downspout. If you observe water overflowing the end cap or leaking through it, it suggests that your gutters are improperly tilted.
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.
