Don't leave the leaves in your gutters

If you’ve ever cleaned your own gutters, you know how messy and dangerous the job can be. But it’s especially tough once the leaves have frozen into ice or snow.

“The leaves become a solid mass,” explains The Gutter Boys founder Anthony Alberino. “It’s an almost impossible task at that point, and it risks damaging your gutters. It’s best not to wait until the snow flies. Never leave any leaves in your gutters beyond the final leaf drop.”

Maintaining a well-functioning gutter system is an essential home improvement task. Overflowing gutters can do aesthetic damage, yes, but they can cause more serious damage, too, like creating a damp, moldy basement and damaging your foundation. And in the winter, frozen gutters promote the growth of ice dams that can leak water into your attic as they thaw.

To Clean or to Cover?

As a full-service gutter solutions company, The Gutter Boys can clean and repair gutters or cover them with their top-rated micro-mesh gutter guard.

Many customers want us to clean their gutters as a part of our gutter subscription service,” Anthony says. “You sign up and we clean your gutters at regular intervals, and you never need to call us. Other customers prefer us to install gutter guards, so their gutters are always protected from fall leaves and spring debris. Either way is fine with us. Whatever solution you choose, we just don’t want to see overflowing gutters.”
