"Gutters were cleaned and debris collected. Then the downspouts were flushed to check for smooth water flow. I was especially impressed at how clean the gutters and house siding were left with no stains on the siding and no mud or caked leaves left at the foundation or driveway. Certainly the best cleaning that has ever been performed at my house."
"From quoting to finished job they were very easy to deal with. They did great work, were on-time and were friendly and very professional and fantastic follow-up. The roof, fascia and new gutters look fantastic. Excellent value too:) LOOK NO FURTHER CALL PADDY'S"

"Dave was great to work with to get an estimate and schedule an appointment. Ryan and his crew were fantastic. They cleaned our gutters, washed our windows inside and out, and power-washed our desks. They communicated clearly what they were going to do, were very thorough and detail oriented, and friendly and cordial. I 100% recommend and will hire them again."
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.
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.
If you do end up with frozen gutters, it's important to thaw them correctly. Thawing your gutters slowly is far safer than trying to break apart the ice. Once you get through the ice, bring in a gutter professional to check out the effectiveness of your heated system.
Regular inspections, occasional rinsing, and removing large debris ensure long-term functionality.
