Performing this inspection allows the cleaner to correctly evaluate the precise issues with your gutter system, specific areas that may need special attention, and to identify the precise steps needed to ensure a correctly functioning rain gutter system.

Following the assessment, the gutter cleaning expert will safely and securely set up an extension ladder to gain access to the starting point of cleaning the gutters. Depending upon problem spots discovered in the course of the examination, the specialist may select to eliminate large obstructions first or may well simply start at one end of the guttering working their way to a downspout. For two-story homes, most specialists prefer to clean the gutter system beginning with the highest level and work their way downward.

At this point, the technician might possibly have the opportunity to recognize issues or possible problems with your guttering that were not obvious prior to the cleaning. The cleaner will advise you of anything you ought to be on the lookout for over time.
