Gutter Cleaning & Roof Maintenance Services
Clog-Free Gutters.
Clean Rooflines.
Lasting Protection.
Clog-free gutters and a clean roofline do more than improve curb appeal. They play a critical role in protecting your home from water damage, wood rot, and costly repairs caused by uncontrolled runoff. When water can’t drain properly, it often ends up where it shouldn’t, like along siding, behind fascia boards, or pooling near the foundation.
Our professional gutter cleaning service and roof maintenance services focus on preventative care that keeps exterior systems working through heavy rain, falling debris, and long wet season of Western Washington.
Professional Gutter Cleaning Services
Clearing debris, restoring flow, and preventing water damage
Gutters are designed to move water away from your home, but it doesn’t take much buildup to interrupt that flow. Leaves, pine needles, moss, and roofing granules commonly lead to clogged gutters, especially in tree-covered and shaded areas.
Our gutter cleaning services include full gutter debris removal along the entire run of the system, not just the sections you can see from the ground. Debris is removed by hand and with proper tools, then hauled away so gutters are left clean and functional.
This type of seasonal gutter cleaning helps prevent:
- Damage from clogged gutters
- Rotting fascia and trim
- Foundation and siding moisture issues
- Dirty gutters that overflow during heavy rain
Early signs of clogged gutters may include water spilling over the edges, plants growing in the gutter, visible sagging, or downspouts that fail to drain during rain. Luckily though, most homes we visit don’t need repairs, just routine care and a clear path for water to flow.
Gutter Cleaning and Repairs
During service, we keep an eye out for minor issues that affect performance. This might include loose hangers, small separations at joints, or areas where water flow is restricted.
Our gutter cleaning and repairs focus on maintenance-level fixes that help extend the life of your gutter system. Addressing these issues early can prevent more serious damage and avoid the need for full replacement of siding, trim, and fascia boards.
Downspout Services & Flow Check
Gutters can be clean and still fail if downspouts are blocked. Debris often compacts at bends or underground connections, leading to backups and overflow during storms.
Our downspout services include flushing and flow checks to clear downspout blockages and confirm that water is being directed safely away from the home. Addressing clogged gutters and downspouts together helps the entire system work more efficiently and reduces the risk of hidden water damage.
Gutter Guard Installation
For homeowners looking to reduce ongoing maintenance, we offer gutter guards as an optional upgrade. Gutter guard systems are designed to block leaves, pine needles, and roof debris while still allowing water to flow freely.
While no system creates completely self-cleaning gutters, gutter guards can significantly cut down on debris accumulation and make routine gutter cleaning maintenance easier over time. We’re happy to talk through whether guards make sense for your home and roof type.
Roof Maintenance Services
Homes surrounded by evergreens or shaded rooflines tend to see faster debris buildup. Over time, that buildup traps moisture and can accelerate wear on roofing materials.
Our roof maintenance services focus on removing moss, leaves, and debris as part of ongoing residential roof maintenance. This type of cleaning supports proper drainage into the gutter system and helps prevent water from backing up under shingles or spilling over eaves.
Gutter and roof care work best when handled together. Keeping both clear reduces strain on the system and helps extend the life of exterior materials.
Pre-Paint Gutter & Roof Prep
Gutters and roof edges need to be clean before exterior painting. Built-up debris and overflow can interfere with paint adhesion, cause drips, and lead to premature peeling.
We often include gutter cleaning as part of paint prep work, along with exterior washing, to ensure fascia, siding, and trim are ready for a clean, durable finish. When existing damage from clogged gutters is present, our carpentry services can address repairs before painting begins.

Gutter Cleaning FAQs
Protect your home with regular gutter care. From preventing leaks to prepping for paint, here’s what to know about professional gutter cleaning and maintenance.
Can clogged gutters cause roof or ceiling leaks?
Yes. When gutters are clogged and water can’t drain properly, it often backs up under shingles or behind fascia boards. This can lead to roof leaks, ceiling damage, and mold growth inside the home.
How often should gutters be cleaned or maintained?
Most homes benefit from gutter cleaning twice a year—once in the fall and again in the spring. Heavily wooded areas or storm-heavy regions may need more frequent maintenance.
Why clean gutters before painting?
Gutters that are overflowing or full of debris can drip onto fresh paint or damage fascia and trim. Cleaning them beforehand helps ensure surfaces stay dry and prepped for long-lasting results.
How do professionals clean gutters?
We remove leaves, twigs, and buildup by hand or with specialized tools, flush the downspouts, and check for blockages or minor damage. It’s a safe, thorough process designed to protect your home.
What are the signs of clogged gutters?
Overflow during rain, sagging sections, visible plant growth, and water stains on siding are all signs your gutters aren’t draining properly and need attention.
