Watch for water overflowing during rain, sagging troughs, or “tiger stripes” on the metal. If you see birds nesting or plants growing in your gutters, a clog is likely causing dangerous water backup toward your roof.

In Los Angeles, we recommend professional cleaning at least twice a year. Regular maintenance prevents heavy sediment and dust from the Santa Ana winds from turning into sludge that blocks your downspouts and damages your foundation.

Gutter guards are protective covers that block debris while allowing water flow. They are a valuable investment for homes near trees or hills, as they reduce cleaning frequency and prevent dangerous clogs and foundation damage.

While gutter guards significantly reduce debris buildup, they don’t 100% eliminate the need for occasional inspections. You should still have a professional check the system annually to ensure fine sediment hasn’t bypassed the guards and blocked downspouts.
