The best time of year to clean gutters depends on the climate and weather patterns in your area, as well as the type of trees and debris that tend to accumulate in your gutters. In general, it’s a good idea to clean gutters at least twice a year: once in the spring and once in the fall.

In the spring, cleaning your gutters can help to clear out any debris that has accumulated over the winter, such as leaves, twigs, and branches. This can help to prevent blockages that can cause water to overflow, which can lead to water damage and other problems.

In the fall, cleaning your gutters is especially important because of the falling leaves from trees. If left uncleaned, the accumulation of leaves in the gutters can cause blockages that can lead to water damage. Not only the leaves but also other debris such as pine needles, acorn, seed pods etc can clog the gutter. It is better to schedule a cleaning before the heavy falling happens.

It’s also a good idea to inspect your gutters during the summer to check for any problems or leaks that may have developed, so you can address them before the fall rain and winter snowfall arrive.

It’s worth noting that if you have a lot of trees around your property, you may need to clean your gutters more often. If you have a large property or are unable to reach your gutters safely, it’s best to hire a professional to clean your gutters for you.

It’s also good to have a regular checkup of the gutter, to avoid any bigger damage to the roof, wall or the foundation.
