Gutter face cleaning step-by-step
To ensure a safe and effective gutter face cleaning service, we start by taking extra care to protect your foliage and plants. Prior to applying our specialized chemical to remove oxidation and restore your gutters' luster, we thoroughly saturate the area with water. This not only dilutes any cleaning product that may fall onto your plants but also helps prevent any potential harm to your greenery during the cleaning process.
Our second step in providing a top-notch gutter face cleaning service involves the careful application of our specially formulated cleaning product. After applying the solution, we allow it to sit for a few minutes, allowing it to penetrate and dissolve any stubborn oxidation, dirt or grime. We then buff the area to remove any stubborn build-up.
Our third and final step in providing an exceptional gutter face cleaning service involves a thorough flushing process. This ensures that all traces of the cleaning product have been removed from the gutters, as well as any surrounding hedges and foliage. We take great care to guarantee that your property is left in pristine condition, with no residue or debris remaining after our service is complete.

Yes! Under certain circumstances, including lack of available water and customer request, we will perform a “dry cleaning.” We will only perform a dry cleaning where we can ensure that the gutters and leaders are free from clogs. If we perform a “dry cleaning”, the service carries the same guarantee as a cleaning with water.
We do not recommend screening or gutter guards. Ned Stevens has searched for and experimented with all types of products that claim to prevent gutter clogs for nearly 60 years. In short, we’ve found that there’s no such thing as a “no clog” gutter.
We do sell and install gutter screens, but we stopped selling a top-of-the-line solid cover gutter guard. These systems allow debris in the gutters, they allow the water to pour off the top of gutters in heavy rain (which could lead to water in your basement), and they allow clogs. The screens we sell will keep out big debris, but let a significant amount of small debris into the gutters. This debris will cause clogs over time, and can even grow plants in the gutters. As such, even with screens, gutters need to be cleaned regularly.
The solution for gutter clogs is simple: clean the gutters on a regular schedule. You can do this by signing up for one of our ongoing service plans, and you won’t worry about your gutters again.
You may notice that areas of your gutters overflow when it rains, or your downspouts aren’t draining any water. It may be as obvious as a visible buildup of debris in your gutters, which indicates that nothing is able to drain.
An easy rule of thumb is that if your gutters haven’t been cleaned in the last 4-6 months, chances are it’s time for another cleaning.
While it may seem like a more affordable option to clean your gutters on your own, the potential risks simply do not outweigh the savings. You risk serious injuries and might not own the proper equipment or experience. You could also damage your gutters, gutter pitch, or the roof and end up paying even more in costly repairs. Professional gutter cleaners have the experience and equipment to get the job done safely and efficiently, so you can rest assured that your gutters will be clean and functioning correctly. In the end, hiring a professional gutter cleaner is the best option for your home.
No — we will make your life easy! After you schedule your job, we will appear automatically without further notice for each service scheduled, do a great job, and leave a receipt for you in your door. It’s that easy!
Yes, we guarantee every gutter cleaning we perform. Because of the amount of debris that falls every single day, and the small amount of debris required to clog gutters, gutters can clog at any time. However, we guarantee that your entire system will be cleaned and flow freely through the next rainstorm following your service.
We recommend that you clean your gutters about 6 times per year. Your local weather and proximity to trees & debris will dictate your specific needs, but we typically suggest this recommended schedule:
- In March, to re-nail all gutters and clear out the branches, dirt and other winter debris – so that they are ready for the “April Showers”
- In June, to clean out all the oak tassels, ragweed, seed pods, “helicopters”, and other debris that land all over our properties
- In August, to remove wind-blown debris caused by Summer thunderstorms
- And then three times in the Fall: October, November, and December, to remove all the clogs caused by leaves that come down throughout the Fall season, before the winter freeze.
Our Service Plans provide the simplest solution for worry-free gutter maintenance, all year long, and come with free benefits!
Properly pitched gutters and leaders gather that water and channel it away from the home. Doing so prevents water penetration into the home and its foundation. For this reason, Consumer Reports magazine claims that “runaway rainwater” is the “#1 Home Repair That You Should Not Ignore.”
Because of how important a properly flowing gutter system is to your home, you must keep them clean, all year round. If you don’t, rainwater can seep into your home’s roof, siding, and even its foundation. Water damage to these parts of your home can result in costly repairs. Simply cleaning your gutters prevents these expensive projects and keeps water flowing away from your home.
