Q: Do I need to clean gutters if I have gutter guards?

Even with gutter guards , plan on an occasional cleaning—just not as often as homes without guards. Installing gutter guards blocks leaves, but grit and shingle granules still slip through and pile up over time. A quick sweep keeps water moving and stops overflow that can damage your roof or foundation.

"I have used their services personally as well as professionally for years. I recently mistakenly sent a zelle payment to the Owner, who is actually named Mercedes. As soon as I realized I made this mistake, when the Mercedes I intended to pay reached out to me, I reached out to her to let her know my mistake. Not only did she not return my messages, she blocked me and kept the $505. To say I am disgusted and appalled is an understatement. Not only was I a good customer, I provided her with thousands of dollars worth of mint condition clothing for her daughters every season. Leather coats, winter coats, dresses, Ugg boots, etc. I made many attempts to reach out to her and have been ignored. I even pleaded and said please at least come do a deep clean and return some of the money to me. No response to myself or my bank who has been trying to contact her on my behalf. I would be very wary of allowing someone with this kind of moral character into your home."

"I had Mr Simpson out to do an estimate he was able to come out the very same day. I was calling other companies and they wanted to make special appointments. I was busy and I had a leak in my roof and I didn't know what to do so I seen the reviews for Mr Simpson so I figured I'd give him a try when he came out to look at the job. He told me that I did not need a new roof that I just need it some preventative Maintenance and I should be fine and he also suggested coding the roof with a grey silicone coating to preserve the membrane and make it last longer he gave me a fair price and he also said that he could do it the next day. I usually don't hire people on the spot. I usually get more than one Estimate but the young man seemed very knowledgeable and showed me pictures of my roof and showed me what was going on and explain to me the membrane that I haveit's supposed to be maintained and I never did have any type of maintenance done so I agreed and he did the job "

"Gutters were cleaned and debris collected. Then the downspouts were flushed to check for smooth water flow. I was especially impressed at how clean the gutters and house siding were left with no stains on the siding and no mud or caked leaves left at the foundation or driveway. Certainly the best cleaning that has ever been performed at my house."

FAQs for gutters & downspouts cleaning service projects in Bear, DE

You’ll want to clean gutters once or twice a year—in early spring and again in fall—to keep water flowing and avoid pricey leaks. Homes tucked beneath tall trees or hit with heavy debris may need two to four visits instead. Staying on schedule protects your roof, siding, and foundation from costly water damage.

Even with gutter guards, plan on an occasional cleaning—just not as often as homes without guards. Installing gutter guards blocks leaves, but grit and shingle granules still slip through and pile up over time. A quick sweep keeps water moving and stops overflow that can damage your roof or foundation.

Watch for overflowing water, slow or silent downspouts, sagging sections, or debris peeking over the gutter edge. You might also spot water stains, weeds, or an increasing number of ants in certain areas. Any of these red flags means it’s time to call a gutter cleaning pro for service before minor clogs turn into major leaks.

Skip cleanings for too long and gutters overflow, sending water under shingles, down siding, and toward the foundation. The result can be mold, rotted fascia, basement leaks, and repair bills that dwarf the price of a quick cleaning. It can also mean that future cleanings will be more expensive as it will take pros longer to deep clean gutters that are full of heavy debris. Staying on schedule saves money and headaches.

Plan on gutter cleaning service to take an average of one hour for an average single-story home and two to three hours for taller houses. Add extra time if gutter guards need to come off or clogs are packed in. Pros work methodically, clearing every linear foot so water can flow freely again.
