Frequently Asked Questions

1. Prevent Water Damage

Clogged gutters can cause water to overflow, potentially leading to leaks in your roof, siding, and foundation. This excess water can seep into your home, causing serious damage and expensive repairs.

2. Protect Your Landscaping

Overflowing water from clogged gutters can wash away your landscaping, damaging your plants and flowers. Regular cleaning ensures that water is properly directed away from your yard, preserving your landscaping investment.

3. Save Money on Costly Repairs

Neglecting gutter cleaning can lead to blocked gutters, which can cause leaks, foundation issues, and pest infestations. Routine cleaning helps avoid these problems and saves you from expensive repairs down the road.

It's generally recommended to clean your gutters at least twice a year — once in the spring and once in the fall. However, the frequency can vary based on factors like:

Trees Near Your Home: If you have overhanging trees, especially ones that shed a lot of leaves or pine needles, you may need to clean your gutters more often (every 3–4 months).

Weather Conditions: If your area experiences heavy storms or high winds, more frequent cleanings may be necessary to prevent debris buildup and ensure proper water flow.

Roof Design: Homes with steeper roofs or roofs that gather a lot of debris may need more regular maintenance.

Cleaning your gutters regularly helps prevent blockages, water damage, and pest infestations, protecting your home and landscaping from costly repairs. If you're unsure, Rusty’s Gutter Service can assess your home and recommend the right cleaning schedule for your needs.
