Best Way to Clean Gutters 

One of the ways you can tell which chores are the most dreaded is by the number of “easy” gadgets that are available to “solve” the problem or make it “fun”. We’ve tried many of these gutter cleaning methods over the years and will continue to try and test new cleaning options as they become available. Many of these gadgets, and even many hired landscapers, address only the gutter and completely ignore the downspouts and outlets.

Overflowing / Leaky Gutters

Leaks and overflowing water after a storm are the biggest signs that your gutters may have a clog and need cleaning services, but it could also be a sign that you need gutter repair.  

Signs your gutters need attention 

• Gutter overflow 
• Visible debris in gutters 
• No water flow from the downspout 

 

To an untrained eye, an overflow that is caused by a clog may look similar to an overflow that is caused by damaged or improperly installed gutters.  

Gutter Cleaning and Repair – Which do I Need? 

Cleaning

Overflowing at or near the downspout is a tell-tale sign that you need gutter cleaning services and there is likely a blockage in your downspout that is inhibiting the water from flowing down the downspout that can be fixed by a simple cleaning. 

Repair 

Whereas, overflow that is occurring in the middle of a gutter, and/or at the opposite end of a downspout typically indicates the need for a repair or reinstall because this could: 

1. be a sign of a pitch issue
2. mean your gutters are too small
3. mean there are not enough leaders or downspouts
4. be your gutters are sagging/pulling from your home due to age, or install issues 

Other indications that you have overflow issues: 

• Stained or cracked walls, siding, or foundation 
• Pooling by your foundation 
• Visible overflow from the front of the gutter or between the fascia and gutter in the rain 

There are less subtle signs as well. If you have a downspout that leads to an underground drain and the area around that drain is wet, then it is most likely clogged and will require a thorough gutter cleaning. 

Although the above lists are great indications and starting points to understanding what may be wrong with your gutter system, it is common for homeowners to misdiagnose the source of their gutter problems.

Let the Pros Decide 

It is important to remedy these overflow issues because continued run-off can lead to many serious and expensive issues for your home like water damage, flooding, and foundation damage.  

During an evaluation, our professionally trained staff can determine whether your gutter system needs our cleaning services, or if your overflow is due to other issues that may involve a repair or a replacement. The right solution for your gutters is not a cookie-cutter plan, and each home often requires a unique solution that should be fully and properly assessed by a professional.  

If you have a gutter overflow, contact The Brothers that just do Gutters today for your free estimate. You can trust us to properly diagnose your situation, and provide the best solution for your home. 

Do it Yourself cleaning   

Cleaning your home’s gutter system is an extremely important maintenance task. However, it isn’t as easy as you might think, which is where gutter cleaning services come into play. Some common mistakes can cause injuries to you or damage your home. 

Mistakes To Avoid 

1. Not properly adhering to ladder safety
2. Overreaching while on a ladder
3. Wearing inappropriate attire
4. Using the wrong tools
5. Not completely unclogging gutters. 

Best time of year to clean gutters 

• Spring before increased heavy rainfall 
• Fall after all leaves have fallen 

 

The pros don’t just clean the gutters out with a leaf blower. It is rare that gutters are only filled with dry leaves. We respect the homes that we service and leaf blowers can blow dirt and mud all over —staining windows, siding, patio furniture, and decks below. Besides, leaf blowers are not effective at clearing out clogs from downspouts. Cleaning only the gutter and leaving a clog in a downspout will only lead to more clogging and more work later.
