Protect Your Home with Roof and Gutter Cleaning
Let’s be honest — taking care of a home comes with its fair share of chores. But if roof and gutter cleaning isn’t on your seasonal to-do list, it’s time to bump it up the priority ladder. Why? Because ignoring these two areas can lead to all kinds of chaos — clogged gutters, mossy shingles, sneaky leaks, and even damage to your home’s foundation. No thanks.
The good news? We’ve got your back.
As your local roof and gutter cleaning pros, we’ve got the tools, tips, and know-how to help keep your home safe, efficient, and looking sharp. Between surprise rainstorms, leafy autumns, and moody seasonal weather, your home deals with a lot — but we’re here to make sure it’s ready for whatever comes next.
Let’s dive into why roof and gutter cleaning actually matters, the common messes we see, and how we help keep your place in top shape all year long.
Why Roof and Gutter Cleaning Matters
Your roof and gutters are like your home’s unsung heroes — keeping rainwater flowing away and shielding everything below. But they can only do their job if they’re clean and clear. Skip out on maintenance, and you might be dealing with overflowing gutters, green fuzz on your shingles, or water sneaking into spots it definitely doesn’t belong.
Top Benefits of Professional Roof and Gutter Cleaning
- Stops Water Damage in Its Tracks
Clogged gutters are trouble. When water can’t drain, it pools around your foundation, possibly causing cracks, leaks, or even mold. Yikes. - Keeps Your Roof Stronger for Longer
Moss and gunk aren’t just ugly — they can slowly eat away at your shingles. Keeping your roof clean now saves you major repair bills later. - Keeps Pests Away
Nobody wants mosquitoes or rodents nesting in gutter gunk. A clean gutter is a pest-free gutter. - Saves You Money
Preventing damage costs way less than fixing it. Regular cleaning is a smart move that pays off in the long run. - Boosts Your Home’s Curb Appeal
Let’s face it — a streaky, moss-covered roof isn’t doing your house any favors. Clean it up and let your curb appeal shine.
Common Roof and Gutter Problems (and How We Fix Them)
We’ve seen just about everything when it comes to roof and gutter issues. Here are a few of the biggest offenders — and how we kick them to the curb.
1. Clogged Gutters
The Problem: Leaves, twigs, and mystery debris clog things up so rainwater can’t drain.
Our Fix: We clear everything out by hand, flush the downspouts, and haul away the mess. Want to avoid future blockages? We can install gutter guards too.
2. Moss and Algae Taking Over
The Problem: Shady, damp spots on your roof become the perfect hangout for moss and algae, which slowly chew through your shingles.
Our Fix: We gently brush off the moss, then apply a chlorine-based treatment that kills it at the root — no rinsing required. It’s ARMA-approved and comes with a 2-year guarantee.
3. Winter Drainage Woes
The Problem: Blocked gutters in cold weather lead to frozen water and drainage backups. That’s a lot of extra weight and strain.
Our Fix: Our seasonal cleaning service clears out everything before the freeze hits, helping you avoid overflow and damage.
4. Beat-Up Gutters or Downspouts
The Problem: Time, weather, and gravity take their toll — sagging sections, leaks, or parts that just aren’t working right.
Our Fix: We patch up leaks, realign downspouts, and replace busted sections to get everything flowing properly again.

FAQs About Roof and Gutter Cleaning
How often should I clean my gutters?
Twice a year — usually spring and fall. If you’ve got a lot of trees nearby or it’s been stormy, maybe even more often.
What’s soft wash roof cleaning, and why not pressure wash?
Soft washing uses low pressure and a cleaning solution to remove moss and algae without damaging shingles. Pressure washing might strip your roof’s surface and shorten its life.
Can clogged gutters really cause water damage?
Absolutely. Overflowing water can rot wood, cause leaks, and even mess with your foundation.
Do you clean both homes and commercial buildings?
You bet. We’ve worked on everything from houses and strata buildings to storefronts and beyond.
Do you offer warranties?
We do! Our moss treatment includes a 2-year warranty for long-lasting results.
