WHAT HAPPENS IF YOU DON'T CLEAN YOUR GUTTERS?
Not cleaning your gutters can be a recipe for disaster. Gutters are designed to carry rainwater away from your home via downspouts and protect your home from water damage. When your gutters are clogged with debris, they will overflow with water. That, in turn, can lead to any or all of following:
- Sagging, twisted, or broken gutters
- Basement flooding
- Damage to the home’s foundation
- Damage to landscaping
- Pest infestations
- Roof damage
- Damage to your home interior or exterior
- Growth of mold, moss, or algae
- Ice dams
To avoid any or all of these problems, it is recommended that you clean your gutters at least twice a year. If you live in a heavily wooded area, you might need to increase the frequency of cleaning.
03
SHOULD YOU CLEAN YOUR GUTTERS YOURSELF?
- The answer to this depends on a number of factors. Your first consideration should be SAFETY. If you feel that you cannot safely clean your gutters as a DIY project, then you should definitely hire professionals to do the job for you.
- Gutter cleaning service providers often factor in safety and liability considerations. Industry-leading professionals like ours are proud to be able to provide top-notch gutter cleaning services without the added costs associated with higher safety and liability concerns.
- By using gutter cleaning vacuums with carbon fiber poles and a high vertical reach, service providers like ours can provide clients with peace of mind, exceptional service and perks like free estimates and inspections all at a huge discount to our clients.
That said, there are safe ways to clean your gutters and there are an equal or greater number of unsafe ways to clean your gutters. Leave it to the professionals and save yourself time, money and most of all PEACE OF MIND.
04
HOW MUCH SHOULD YOU PAY TO HAVE YOUR GUTTERS PROFESSIONALLY CLEANED?
Gutter cleaning service providers often determine their prices based upon a number of factors. In order to understand what you should pay to have your gutters professionally cleaned it helps to understand what factors gutter cleaning professionals take into account. Factors include the number of stories a property has, how many linear feet (or square feet) and how many trees around the property.
For a more precise estimate, there are two formulas to help you.
- By linear foot: If you know how many linear feet of gutter material is on your property, multiply that footage by $1 for one-story homes and $2 for two-story homes, to approximate your cleaning costs.
- By square foot: If you know how large your property is in square feet (and how much of that square footage has gutters attached), multiply that number by .40 for a one-story house and .80 for a two-story house. This method is not as precise as the linear foot method, but it will give you at least a rough idea of costs.
Simmons & Simmons Gutter Cleaning deals primarily with HOAs, Property Management companies and other commercial clients so the estimates for these – as opposed residential clients – are computed somewhat differently due to the difference in the scale of the work.
We do, however, GUARANTEE our commercial clients the BEST SERVICE at the BEST RATE with added perks like FREE INSPECTION, FREE ESTIMATE, and FREE PROOF OF SERVICE with before and after photos.
