Why You Should Clean Your Gutters
Gutters protect your home by carrying water and debris away from your siding and foundation. They can't work properly without routine maintenance. Water can collect on your roof due to clogged gutters, resulting in leaks, mold, and structural damage.
Water spillage from blocked gutters sinks into your home’s foundation, which can weaken your foundation over time and lead to basement flooding. A gutter clog can also impact landscaping and curb appeal.
How To Choose a Gutter Cleaning Company in Hollywood
We recommend Hollywood homeowners consider the following factors when selecting a gutter cleaning company.
Cost
Cost is an important factor when choosing a gutter cleaner. We recommend getting estimates from at least three companies to compare pricing. Be sure to get any financial agreements in writing before the work begins. It’s also a good idea to ask if the company offers other home services, such as window washing or roof repair, in case it has a bundling discount.
Customer Reviews
Read online reviews to assess customer satisfaction and see what other homeowners say about a gutter cleaner’s workmanship and policies. Look for comments on timeliness and service quality. Note if past customers recommend better gutter cleaners in their reviews. Reviews can help you decide if it’s your first time using a professional gutter cleaner.
Equipment and Methods
Don't hesitate to ask gutter contractors about the quality of their equipment and methods. A reputable gutter company will show up with all needed equipment in good condition and follow cleaning methods that meet safety standards.Experience and Training
Hiring a gutter cleaning service isn’t only about the manual labor. Proper gutter maintenance is a skill. Ask the company how long it's been in business or check the Better Business Bureau. Inquire about the training and services it offers.
Licensing, Permits, and Insurance
All states require a business license, but may not require a trade license to clean gutters. The company may also need a permit and business insurance. You can find your location’s regulations on your state’s contractor board website.
