We, as a company, do not clean gutters out. When the ceiling of your living room starts to look pregnant, you know you have a problem. Clogged gutters can result in frozen water in the winter that stands for several days, blocking the flow of unfrozen water from the roof. Most homeowners overlook gutter cleaning activities mainly because of the mess involved or difficulties to gain access. Small bits of cement and sand falling off the building's structure end up in the gutter, clogging it too. At the end of the day, then, the gutter has to be cleaned, to get rid of this accumulated 'dirt.' Otherwise, one risks ending up with a gutter that can't serve its primary role, of being a rainwater drainage structure. Water may also migrate to the underside of your exterior siding or soffits creating hidden rot, potential mold growth, insect nesting, and hidden water damage. Carpenter ants love to tunnel through wet wood and colonize. Water may also lap over the gutter system, and be deposited against the home foundation walls during heavier rainfall. Steel gutters tend to rust over time. While the low up-front cost is great, you may end up spending more money on upkeep over the years in order to combat the problem of rusting.

The average American home usually has one long gutter or a series of gutters together and in order to keep them clean, you will need to use gutter cleaning equipment that can be found at the local hardware store or places like Menards, Home Depot, etc. You need a good pair of work gloves, a sturdy long ladder, and long reaching rakes and shovels.
