Your home’s gutters are designed to direct rainwater away from the roof, walls, and foundation. When debris like leaves, pine needles, and dirt accumulate, they block water flow, leading to overflow and leaks.
In a city like Vancouver, where rainfall is frequent, clogged gutters can cause extensive damage in a short period of time.
One of the most common questions homeowners ask is:
“How often should I clean my gutters?”
In Vancouver, experts recommend cleaning your gutters at least twice a year, once in spring and again in late fall. However, homes surrounded by trees or near wooded areas may need more frequent service.
If you’re unsure, scheduling a professional gutter cleaning service for an inspection can help determine the right maintenance plan for your home.
While some homeowners attempt DIY gutter cleaning, it can be risky, especially on two-story homes or steep roofs.
Hiring a professional gutter cleaning service in Vancouver offers key benefits:
Professional cleaning not only ensures safety but also delivers long-term protection and peace of mind.
Q: What happens if I skip gutter cleaning for a year?
A: Expect potential water overflow, roof leaks, and early signs of wood rot, especially during Vancouver’s rainy season.
Q: Are gutter guards enough to avoid cleaning?
A: Gutter guards help reduce debris but don’t eliminate the need for cleaning entirely. Annual inspections remain essential.
Q: How long does a gutter cleaning service take?
A: Typically between 1–3 hours, depending on home size and gutter condition.
