Clean Your Gutters 1-3 Times Per Year on Average
We do not see as much rain as coastal areas, but our rainy season can cause issues for homeowners who ignore their gutters. Between the fall leaves and spring pollen, debris can pile up faster than you might expect. If rainwater has nowhere to go. It can spill over and pool around your home -- this is where water damage, erosion, pests, and even foundation damage may come into play.
Additionally, the dry months bring their own challenges. Leaves and twigs that sit in your gutters for months create an ideal environment for pests, from mosquitoes to rodents. Keeping your gutters clean isn't just about avoiding water damage---it's about protecting your home's overall integrity.
Foundation Damage, Mildew, Pests -- Oh No!
Foundation Damage and Water Overflow
Water pooling around your foundation is one of the most common problems caused by clogged gutters. Over time, this can create hydrostatic pressure, which might lead to cracks or leaks in your foundation. These problems are costly to repair and can cause long-term structural issues if not addressed.
Pest Problems
Nobody wants to deal with pests, but clogged gutters can attract them in droves. Stagnant water is the perfect breeding ground for mosquitoes, while leaves and twigs can attract rodents and birds looking for a nesting spot. Once pests settle in your gutters, it's only a matter of time before they start exploring the rest of your home.
Roof and Fascia Damage
Depending on the angle of your roof, water can back up onto your roof, damaging shingles and causing leaks. It can also lead to wood rot along your fascia boards, and these, in turn, support your roof.
What Professional Gutter Cleaning Services Are Like
Working with a professional gutter cleaning service offers a degree of excellence that you simply don't get with DIY or lower-tier services. At Dunzo Gutters, we do more than just scoop leaves out of your gutters. Our team inspects your entire system to identify any potential issues, like leaks, weak spots, or poorly connected downspouts. We remove debris by hand or with specialized equipment to clean every inch of your gutters and downspouts. Then, we leave your house, sidewalks, and even bushes perfectly clean -- you will not find clumps of debris around the house, or smudges on the siding.
DIY cleaning or hiring someone without the right tools often leaves behind hidden blockages. Plus, attempting to clean your gutters on your own can be dangerous.
We've all seen people walking around on the roof with a simple leaf blower, or hanging out of a window to reach the gutters. This will not get the job done well.
Additional Services We Offer
Gutter Guard Installation
If you're tired of frequent cleanings, gutter guards can help. These systems keep debris out of your gutters while allowing water to flow through freely. There are several types to choose from, including mesh screens, foam inserts, and reverse-curve designs. We'll help you find the best fit for your home based on your roofline, landscaping, and budget.
They aren't entirely necessary for most homes in Rocklin. But if you live in a particularly wood community, you might get frustrated with the need to have contractors visiting your house every 2-3 months. Gutter guards will definitely cut down on the amount of maintenance you need to do.
Downspout Installation and Repairs
Downspouts bring water down from the gutters and away from your home. Some downspouts go into the ground and lead water underground into a french drain or other run-off, while many simply sit on top of the lawn. But if the downspout isn't long enough, or if there is rot or a hole somewhere, it will be rendered useless. We can add extenders or an entirely new downspout as necessary.
French Drains and Grading
If need be, we can grade your soil away from the house (even if you have a brick patio or similar feature). We can also add French drains or swales around your house -- anything we need to do to get the water moving away from the base of your home.
Gutter Cleaning Costs in Rocklin
The cost will be influenced by how many linear feet of gutter you have, how many stories the house has, the type of gutter or gutter guard, and even the style of roof on the house. At the low end of the spectrum, you can often pay $150 for an uninsured worker (who doesn't have the right ladders, professional tools, or equipment). Depending on the house, good professional services may exceed $300. There are a number of factors at play, and we would be happy to give you a quote or provide ballpark estimates on the phone.
