Should gutters be cleaned before or after the leaves fall?
For most homes, the main fall gutter cleaning should happen after the majority of leaves have dropped. But if gutters are already overflowing, holding water, or packed with debris, waiting can allow the problem to get worse.
Homes with gutter guards may still collect leaves and debris on top, and downspouts can still need attention.
Window Medics provides residential and commercial gutter cleaning in Wayne, Pierce, Neligh, and nearby Northeast Nebraska communities. If you see overflow during rain, it is worth having the system checked now.
