You’ve probably seen the ads: 'Gutter cleaning — $129.' And maybe your first thought was, *“How hard can it be? Just scoop the leaves and go.”*

You’ve probably heard it a hundred times: “Clean your gutters twice a year!” But is that always necessary? Or is it one of those things homeowners get pushed into, whether they need it or not? Let’s cut the fluff and break down when gutter cleaning is **actually** essential—and when it’s okay to skip it.

Let’s be real — gutter cleaning is probably not on your top 10 list of fun things to do with your weekend. But here’s the thing: ignoring your gutters could quietly cost you thousands of dollars in repairs, while just one $129 cleaning could prevent it all. Sound dramatic? It’s not. We see it every season.

Picture this: you’re at work, running errands, or even enjoying a weekend out of town—and when you return, your gutters are already cleaned, flushed, and flowing like new. No ladders. No interruptions. No mess left behind. Just a job done right while you go about your life.

Spring is here—and with it comes longer days, melting snow, and the first big rainstorms of the season. You’re probably thinking about switching tires or opening the patio… but have you checked your gutters yet?
