2. Fall is the perfect season to inspect and clean your gutters
because of the fall foliage and the debris left over from
summer storms. Furthermore, once winter's low temperatures
occur, debris and water in your gutters may freeze and create
clogs. The extra weight may cause your gutters to separate
from your house and lead to more problems. The role of gutter
maintenance and repair is quite high irrespective of any
season.

3. Rainwater must be directed away
from your home's roof, walls, and
foundation via gutters. But leaves,
twigs, and other debris can block

6. Reaching your roofline will require
you to climb a ladder, making gutter
cleaning a messy operation. Employ
common sense safety measures to
protect yourself against falling
objects, such as leveling your ladder,
using non-slip shoes, and donning
safety glasses. Additionally, you
should wear heavy work or
landscaping gloves.
Keep safety on
priority

7. Gutter cleaning is advised for your
house twice a year, once in the
spring and once in the fall. By doing
this, you can lessen the
accumulation of leaves, sticks, and
other trash. Put on gloves and
remove leaves and other debris by
hand to clean gutters. To remove
tenacious accumulations, you can
also use a wire brush and a gutter
scoop, both of which are available at
most hardware stores.
Eliminate debris

8. Once you have cleaned them, use a
garden hose to flush the gutters and
downspouts to get rid of any last
bits of debris and leaves. In addition
to cleaning the gutters, the water
will ensure that your downspouts
are clear and allow you to identify
any leaks.

9. If you find a leak, fracture, or tiny hole
while cleaning the gutters, you can
probably seal it yourself. To fix any small
cracks or leaky joints, just use a caulk
tube.
Handle small
leaks
Make that the downspouts are
unobstructed and that the water is
directed away from the foundation. To
remove any obstructions, use a high-
pressure hose or a plumber's snake.
