5 Common Gutter Cleaning Questions

Residential and Commercial properties can benefit from proper gutter cleaning. Gutters can become clogged with leaves, sticks, dirt, snow, and other debris. The buildup of debris can prevent your gutters from working properly and keep moisture out of your home. If you need gutter cleaning, you may have some questions about how it is done or what company to work with.

Vue Window Cleaning works with residential and commercial properties and helps to clean your gutters thoroughly and make sure your gutters and downspouts get back to flowing correctly. We have gathered some common questions and broken down what gutter cleaning entails to help you make the best decision for your home. 

What Time Of Year Should Gutters Be Cleaned?

Regular maintenance on your home helps to keep it in functioning order and prevent damage. Gutters should be cleaned ideally in the spring or fall. Cleaning your gutters twice a year can ensure that snow, rain, and other water can flow away from your home. 

How Long Does Gutter Cleaning Take?

Vue Window Cleaning can tailor our services to meet your needs. If you require urgent cleaning, we can come to your home and take care of it in no time. Typical gutter cleaning takes around 2-4 hours depending on the size of your home or business. If your home is on one level, cleaning your gutters yourself can typically take less than an hour. 

How Much Does Gutter Cleaning Cost?

We believe that not one price fits all. We come to evaluate your home and how your gutter system is set up, this helps us to determine what your price will be. Our minimum charge for a one-story home is $75 and up. For two-story homes, the starting price is $125 and can add up to $200. 

We also offer a 110% money-back guarantee, which means that if you are not satisfied with our services, we give you a 10% addition to your refund. We want your home to look pristine when we leave, and your satisfaction is important to us. Paying someone to clean your home can be a little daunting, so we ensure that all our technicians know how to do the job right. 

Why Is Cleaning Important?

Gutters are installed to keep rainwater and snow away from your home and foundation. Cleaning gutters ensures that water can flow properly down the gutters and downspouts. Gutter cleaning also keeps rodents and birds from making homes in your gutter as well. 

Left unattended, leaves and debris can build up and cause your gutters to begin rotting. This can also cause mold and mildew to grow on your roof which can deteriorate your roofing material. Gutter cleaning has multiple benefits, which makes proper and consistent cleaning all that more important. 

How Often Should I Clean My Gutters?

If your home is built around trees, you may need to clean your gutters more often. For most homeowners, twice a year gutter cleaning should be enough to keep your gutters clean. If your gutters are older or have experienced damage, cleaning may need to be done more often. 

Should I Clean My Gutters Myself?

If your home is a one-level home, cleaning your gutters yourself can be fairly easy. If you own a commercial property or have a larger home, a professional cleaner can have the right tools and equipment to do it safely. Cleaning out your gutters can be done periodically by yourself. Cleaning out leaves and sticks after a storm or removing other objects can be done by yourself and help make extensive cleaning easier.
