Why clogged gutters matter more here

When gutters clog, water overflows behind the fascia, into the soffits, and down against the foundation. In a Michigan winter, clogged gutters are a leading cause of ice dams — water backs up, refreezes, and forces its way under the shingles and into the attic. Clearing them in late fall is one of the cheapest forms of damage prevention there is.

What's included

A gutter cleaning with us includes:

  • Hand-removal of leaves, seeds, and shingle grit from the troughs — bagged, not blown onto the roof or lawn.
  • Downspout flush to confirm everything actually drains.
  • Exterior gutter-face wash — the black "tiger striping" on the front of white gutters is overflow staining, and it cleans right off.

How often, in West Michigan

Twice a year is the right rhythm for most homes here: late spring after the maple seeds and pollen drop, and late fall after the leaves come down and before the freeze. Homes under heavy tree canopy may need three or four visits a year. Pairing gutter cleaning with a roof soft wash or house wash knocks it all out in one trip.

FAQ

Gutter Cleaning & Brightening questions

How often should I clean my gutters in Michigan?

Twice a year for most homes — late spring after seed and pollen drop, and late fall after leaves come down and before the freeze. Heavily tree-shaded homes may need three to four cleanings a year.

Can you get the black streaks off the front of my gutters?

Yes. That black 'tiger striping' is overflow staining on the gutter face, and an exterior gutter-face wash is included with our gutter cleaning.

Work done well. Windows even clean when done. Lots of dirt and moss removed from 2 story with soft pressure and cleaner without going on roof! Would recommend highly.

While living in the woods has its charms, a moss covered roof and moldy siding isn't one of them! Amazing job on the roof and siding. Highly recommend! 10 out of 10!
