"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."

"Gutter Flow team called almost as soon as the job was posted and we made a next day appointment. They showed up the next morning and we discussed the repair/40 foot replace project and his bid was strait forward and much lower that what I had been quoted previously. Due to weather and personal scheduling conflicts we postponed the job to the next day. On arrival we signed the contract and the owner and his partner went strait to work resetting original gutter spikes, reinforcing all of the gutters, and installed 40 feet of steel gutter that had fallen off of the house last winter. They were very professional, completed the job in under 3 hours and cleaned up everything. I was impressed with the job they did and very happy that the new gutters blended well with the old gutters."

"They did an excellent job from price quote to clean-up. They were very easy to communicate with throughout the job.They worked with me on using no-VOC paint, choosing a paint brand, colors, suggestions for different rooms, etc. They are hard working and very timely in starting the job each morning. The clean-up after painting was meticulous and included vacuuming and damp mopping of all floors. They respected my home and belongings and that in itself impressed me greatly. It is such a pleasure to work with excellent craftsmen like these. They were a pleasure to work with and I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone. "
"We had our wood stove area in our home done. When we requested a quote, we received a call promptly. I appreciated the friendly communication from start to finish and the price was very reasonable. The whole crew who came out had a great work ethic and the quality of work was "beyond" what my husband and I expected, My husband and I are so glad we chose Milestone Masonry and would definitely hire them again in the future! Love the work they did and just a great job from start to finish, I also really appreciated how respectful they are cleaning up and wiping everything down. Thank You!!"
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.
If you don't want to install gutter guards, the most common and inexpensive alternative is regular gutter cleaning, either annually, biannually, or as soon as they start to fill up. Using a leaf blower attachment can make this process easier. Other products designed to reduce cleanings include gutter screens (made of wire mesh, nylon, or foam), which are typically less expensive than a full gutter guard installation. You can also find guards and inserts designed specifically to protect your downspouts or opt for a whole gutter system like LeafGuard, which integrates the gutter and guard into a single product.
Icicles don't necessarily mean your gutters are clogged or bad, but they can indicate an underlying issue. While clogged gutters can cause icicles to form, the problem could also be an ice dam on your roof from poor insulation. In that case, melting snow can refreeze in the gutter even without a clog. Regardless of the cause, the weight of the ice can damage your gutters or even rip them completely off the house. If you are unsure of the underlying problem, it's best to call a roofing company to assess the issue and implement a permanent solution.
Yes, there are several downsides to installing rain chains. For one, rain chains have a lower flow capacity than a typical gutter and downspout system. This means that if there is a rainstorm, the rain chain can stop working completely. Rain chains also cannot redirect rainwater away from your house. In homes with a sloped yard, this could cause water damage in your foundation or basement.
Shingle granules can be cleaned out of gutters using a small scoop or a hose, depending on the quantity of granules and how much other debris is in your gutters. First, clear your gutters of leaves and other debris. This may remove granules in the gutters if they are mixed in with the debris. Use a plastic scoop to remove larger quantities of granules or a hose with a high-powered nozzle for smaller amounts, and collect and dispose of the granules once they’ve been removed.
