Gutter Cleaning Clean gutters will allow for any rainwater to be properly drained from your roof. It’s common for gutters to become full of leaves, dirt and debris.

Leaving your gutters full will also put a lot of strain on the gutter flashings and they can become damaged or pull away because of the extra weight.
