the gutter cleaning process
- Size up the Work: We’ll consult you about issues you’ve found, figure out how to safely access the troughs, and take before pictures that’ll show you exactly how bad your gutters have gotten.
- Get the Gunk Out: Depending on the conditions we’ll scoop, blow, or vacuum the bulk of crud out of your eavestroughs.
- Flush and Inspect: We’ll hose out the entire eavestrough system. This gets the stuff left behind after our first pass and helps us identify bad grading, leaks, and clogged downspouts.
- Document and Clean Up: We’ll take after pictures and close-ups of any maintenance issues we come across. We’ll clean up the outside of the house and the landscaping so things are as clean as when we started.
And that’s it! A lot of text to say this process will be easy for you and effective. I endeavor always to give you great value for your money. I pride myself on thorough workmanship and care for your property. You have my guarantee when I’m done you’ll be confident your gutters are in great shape, or you’ll know exactly what more to do to get them there.
In most cases no! Our crew needs to be able to get into your yard and access water so we can flush your system. If you can leave a gate unlocked and the water on, we can take this chore off your list while you carry on with your busy day.
Our prices start at $160 plus GST. We calculate the cost based on the amount of eavestrough on your house and the level of difficulty in accessing it. The more difficult a job is, such as for tall or steep-roofed homes, the more time it takes to complete safely. Therefore, we structure our pricing so that more challenging jobs of the same size will have a higher cost to ensure that we provide you with our best service.
You bet! We always include a detached garage in our quotes unless you’ve asked us not to. If there are other buildings on your property, sheds and gazebos and such that you’d like the gutters cleaned on, it’s a good idea to make sure you’ve asked us to include those. Often times these types of small building don’t have gutters at all, so they may not be in the pricing.
Firstly, if you’re having trouble with your eavestroughs presently, then right now is the best time to have them cleaned. Hoping your basement doesn’t flood while you wait for the last leaf to fall isn’t a gamble I’d take.
If you don’t have a problem right now, waiting until the last leaf falls can still be a problem because we can’t clean your gutters when it’s frozen out, and lots of trees in Edmonton, especially Elm and Poplar don’t drop their final leaves until well after things have frozen up.
If you have broadleaf trees, early October is a great time to book because we’ll get a lot of the leaves out, and you don’t risk losing the appointment in the case of an early freeze up. As early as possible in the Spring is good too. There isn’t a lot of rain in winter, and we can be very confident all the leaves are down during those nice March thaws. The end of June to early July is another useful window to watch for. Elms and Cottonwoods will send a lot of seeds out in May and early June that are plenty to clog gutters if you live near one of these trees.
If you have Evergreen trees near your house, they are dropping needles and cones all year round, so getting your troughs cleaned consistently is more important than having them cleaned at any specific time.
No! We’ll bring the tools we need. Even if your hose is there and ready to go, we’ll disconnect it and use ours. On the off chance we cut a hose on a piece of flashing or something, I’d rather it be ours than yours.
Usually, everything we pull out of the gutters is organic, so we often deposit it in your green bin to go to the city compost. If we find non-compostables like leftover roofing nails in the troughs, we’ll bag them and put them in your trash bin. Please let us know in advance if you prefer we haul away debris.
Sometimes. For some properties gutter guards will save you money and chores for years to come. On other properties there an investment that not only never pays off, but exacerbates problems you may already be having. You can learn more about when gutter guards rock here.
