Gutter Cleaning

A gutter packed with maple leaves does one thing: it overflows. The water runs down the fascia instead of the downspout, soaks the trim and the ends of the rafters, and lands in a pile against the foundation — which is how a job that takes an hour turns into rot repair, a repaint and a damp basement. We clear gutters and downspouts across Stamford, Greenwich, Darien and Norwalk: the debris comes out by hand, the line gets flooded, and the downspout is run until the water leaves fast and clean. Then we tell you what the gutters told us — the run that has lost its spikes, the seam opening up, the pitch holding water two inches deep in October.
