Why should gutters be cleaned?
Gutters and downspouts exist to evacuate rainwater away from around the roof and foundation of the home.
When full of debris they cannot work properly and can cause problems (water leaks, etc.).
Should gutter guards be purchased?
Many products supposed to keep debris out of gutters exist on the market but none is really useful in most cases and gutter cleaning still needs to be performed regularly.
One problem with those products is that wet debris tend to stick to the top of the cover and rainwater cannot go in so it flows over the eavestroughs. They also tend to damage the edge of the roof in some cases and even increase risk of ice dam formation.
All gutters eventually need to be cleaned even if no trees surround the property as other debris such as asphalt shingle granules do accumulate with time.
If gutters are not cleaned before winter, the water trapped by debris will expand with freezing temperatures and this may cause damage to the gutter system.
Gutter cleaning helps decrease/avoid:
- Water overflowing;
- Gutters sagging from weight of debris and water;
- Gutter damage from water in freezing temperatures;
- Icicles;
Water leaks in the home;
Dampness in basement;
Landscaping eroding;
Damage to grass and shrubs;
Foul smells (decomposing vegetal and animal matter);
Stains from bacteria, mold, algae and moss on roof;
- Black stains on gutter exterior;
- Stains on siding;
- Dirty windows;
Insect proliferation around property;
Other damage to the home like rotting fascia.
How frequently should gutters be cleaned?
This depends mostly on the trees present around the home.
Once a year (in the fall) is enough in most cases.
A second cleaning may be necessary in the spring or summer, especially if pine or maple trees are present in the vicinity (Pine needles or maple seeds).
When cleaning the gutters our team at PMG Maintenance makes sure that:
- Nothing blocks the flow of rainwater
- Downspouts are working well

We had our gutters cleaned on our 105-year-old house today
by the very professional and conscientious team at PMG Maintenance.
Pierre did a fantastic job and went above and beyond what was expected.
We highly recommend PMG and will not hesitate to have them back for the next cleaning.

I was so impressed watching how careful and professional they were
in clearing our neighbour's gutters that I asked if they would do ours too.
I am very pleased with their work .
They use a bucket to hold the gunk so they don't just drop it on the ground,
their equipment is solid, and they even trimmed some vines away from our soffit as I requested
and worked carefully around our electric de-icing cord in the gutter.
A1. Thanks guys.

Very professional and courteous service.
This company will go the extra mile..
Last time they cleaned my gutters, they also took photos of my roof at my request
so I could check the condition of the shingles.
