Fall Gutter Cleaning: Protecting Your Home Before Winter
As the crisp air of fall rolls into the Salt Lake Valley, homeowners know that preparation is key to a safe and comfortable winter. One of the most overlooked yet essential tasks this season is gutter cleaning. At Your Handyman Pros, we’ve seen firsthand how neglected gutters can lead to expensive repairs, from roof leaks to foundation damage. A simple cleaning now can save you thousands later.
Why Gutter Cleaning Matters
Your gutters are designed to guide rainwater and melting snow safely away from your home. When leaves, twigs, and debris clog the system, water overflows—seeping into roofs, siding, and even basement foundations. Over time, this leads to:
Rotting wood around fascia and soffits
Ice dams in the winter, which push water under shingles
Foundation cracks caused by pooling water around the base of your home
Pest infestations, as damp, clogged gutters attract insects and rodents
The Best Time for Gutter Maintenance
Fall is the perfect time to get ahead of these issues. Clearing out debris before the first snowfall ensures your gutters are ready to handle melting ice and heavy winter storms. For homes surrounded by mature trees, we recommend cleaning at least twice a year—once in the spring and again in the fall.
Professional vs. DIY Cleaning
While some homeowners attempt to clean gutters themselves, it’s often a risky task. Balancing on ladders, reaching into wet debris, and ensuring proper drainage can be dangerous without the right tools and experience. Our licensed team at Your Handyman Pros provides safe, efficient, and thorough gutter cleaning services throughout the Salt Lake Valley and . We not only remove debris but also inspect for leaks, sagging sections, and signs of wear that could cause future problems.
