Why Is Gutter Cleaning Important?
Clearing gutters often lessens damage to homes, and prevents litter build up, which can obstruct gutters progressively. Blocked gutters can't drain out, and will damage siding, bases, and landscaping.
Regular cleaning can lengthen the life of your gutters. Clean gutters are less likely to bend, break, or erode, and maintaining their condition helps save you money in the long run.

How To Choose a Gutter Cleaning Service
Assess Their Experience
Consider a provider that’s been in business for at least a few years. The more experience a gutter specialist has in their field, the quicker and more efficiently they’ll be able to clean your gutters. If your house has an unusual layout or spaces that are tricky to reach, be sure to check if the company has had previous experience with comparable properties.
Check Licensing and Insurance
We recommend validating that a gutter cleaning company has a state-issued business license via
the California State Licensing website. Make sure to check for adequate insurance to cover potential onsite incidents. This safeguards your assets if a worker gets injured on your property.
Read Customer Reviews
Check out client reviews for gutter cleaning companies on trustworthy sites to assess their reliability — Google Reviews, the Better Business Bureau (BBB) website, and Trustpilot are all good sources. Analyze replies to criticism, too, since even top-rated businesses sometimes have problems.
Compare Multiple Quotes
Get proposals from a handful of gutter cleaning specialists for your project. Assess the bids against each other to identify the top option for you, but use discretion if any providers cite abnormally low pricing, as that could indicate lower-quality outcomes.
