Why Is Gutter Cleaning Important?
Routinely clearing your gutters lessens damage to homes, and prevents litter build up, which can block the gutters over time. Overflowing gutters can deteriorate siding, bases, and landscaping.
Regular cleaning can improve the life of your gutters. Well-kept systems are less likely to warp, fracture, or corrode, and keeping your system in good shape will help save you money in the long run.

How To Choose a Gutter Cleaning Service
Assess Their Experience
When researching gutter cleaning companies, consider those that have been in business for several years, since they'll have the field experience to clear your gutters rapidly and thoroughly. The longer a company has offered services, the more adept its process for clearing debris and sediment from gutters will be. If your house has an unusual layout or areas that are tricky to access, verify with the service provider that it has serviced homes like yours in the past.
Check Licensing and Insurance
We recommend verifying that a gutter cleaning company has a state-issued business license via
the Maine State Licensing website. Make sure to check for proper protection to cover potential onsite incidents. This safeguards your assets if a worker gets injured on your property.
Read Customer Reviews
Reviews on websites such as the Better Business Bureau (BBB) website, Google Reviews, and Trustpilot can provide insight into a provider's reliability. Look for providers that have mainly positive reviews. If a company has received negative comments, pay attention to how it has addressed them.
Compare Multiple Quotes
You should reach out to a handful of gutter cleaning companies to get estimates for your job. Assessing multiple quotes against each other will help you identify the most affordable offer, but exercise caution if any bids seem abnormally cheap, as that may indicate inferior craftsmanship.
