Handyman Matters Gutter Cleaning

Cleaning and gutter maintenance is an easily overlooked aspect of home repair.  Unless you happen to be up on your roof, gutters are visible from the exterior and from below only, where their appearance changes little, and therefore months—even years—can go by without seeing the compromise that weather, natural deterioration and time can cause.

Regular gutter maintenance is an essential part of home ownership.  It’s also a task that is deceptively simple in approach, but fraught with a variety of risks and danger without the proper tools and training.  It can be tackled by the able-bodied with a solid, dependable ladder and the appropriate equipment, but oftentimes it’s best to engage the services of a professional who can complete the job quickly, efficiently, and a reasonable price.

From installation through regular maintenance and cleaning, all the way to replacement, it’s important to be vigilant about keeping this part of your home’s structure in perfect working order.  Gutters and drains require minimal, but strict attention in order to fully serve their intended purpose and not lead to additional stress and damage to your home.

For maximum efficiency, gutters should be cleaned twice a year, once in Spring (to remove accumulated debris from the long, cold winter months), and again in the Autumn after the leaves and needles have fallen.
