Storm-season gutter care

Gutter cleaning in Southwest Florida.

Clear, free-flowing gutters and downspouts before the rains come, so water sheds off the roof and away from the foundation instead of spilling down your walls.

Southwest Florida gutters fill fast. Oak litter, pine needles, roof grit, and the shingle sand that washes down with every storm all settle into the troughs, and the wet, salty air keeps it packed in place. A gutter that looks fine from the driveway can be holding a whole season's worth of debris you would never see from the ground.

When that debris blocks the flow, the water has nowhere to go but over the lip. It sheets down the fascia, soaks into the soffit, and pools against the foundation right where you least want it. In our climate that turns into rotted fascia board, algae streaks down the siding that later need soft washing to remove, and soil washed out of the beds below. Clearing the troughs before the water needs them is the entire point of the service.

Timing matters here more than most places. Our rainy season runs heavy from June into October, and hurricane season overlaps it start to finish, so a clogged gutter during a tropical downpour can dump hundreds of gallons in the wrong spot in a single afternoon. We schedule clears ahead of the rains, and again mid-season for homes under heavy tree cover. Since we are already up top, it pairs naturally with roof washing, which clears the algae and organic growth that keeps feeding the gutters.

It works like the rest of Salt: no contract, a recurring plan if you want it handled on a rhythm, and a 365-day guarantee on every visit. If a downspout backs up after we have cleared it, tell us and we come back and make it right. Start with an instant quote and we will size the job to your roofline and tree cover.

What’s included

  • Every trough hand-cleared

    Debris pulled out of the full run of gutter by hand and bagged off your property, not blown across the roof or lawn where it washes right back in.

  • Downspouts flushed clear

    Each downspout run through with water to push out the packed silt below the outlet and confirm it drains free from the roofline all the way to the ground.

  • Flow tested before we leave

    We flood the system and watch the water exit, so you know the gutters actually move water in a storm and do not just look empty from below.

  • Roofline and screen-cage check

    While we are up there we note sagging sections, loose fasteners, and debris piling on your lanai cage, so small problems get flagged before storm season.

How it works

  1. 01

    We clear by hand

    Debris is scooped and pulled from the gutters by hand into buckets, not flung onto the roof or the beds below, so nothing you paid to remove washes straight back in.

  2. 02

    We flush the downspouts

    Water runs through every downspout to break loose the packed silt and confirm each one carries water all the way to the ground, catching the clogs that hide below the outlet.

  3. 03

    We test the full run

    A final flood through the system shows the water moving to the outlets and away from the house. Then we bag the debris and leave the beds and lanai clean.

Common questions

How often should I have my gutters cleaned in Southwest Florida?
Twice a year suits most homes: once before the rainy season starts in late spring, and once in the fall after the debris has piled up. Homes under heavy oak or pine cover usually need a mid-season clear too. If you would rather not track it, a recurring plan keeps it on a set rhythm.
Why does it matter so much before hurricane season?
During a tropical storm a roof can shed hundreds of gallons in an hour. If the gutters are clogged, all of that overflows against the fascia and foundation at once instead of draining away. Clearing them ahead of June puts the whole system to work right when you need it most.
What happens if gutters go uncleaned down here?
In our climate the trapped debris stays wet and heavy, which pulls the gutters loose from the fascia and rots the board behind them. The overflow saturates the soil against your foundation and washes out landscaping, and standing water in a blocked trough turns into a mosquito breeder and a path for ants onto the roof.
Do you clean gutters on two-story homes?
Yes. We clear the full run on both stories, working from stabilized ladders and from the roof where it is safe to. We do not lean ladders against your screen cage or crush the lanai to reach the back of the house, which is a common way gutter work goes wrong here.
Can you clear gutters clogged with roof algae and shingle grit?
Yes. That black grit and organic gunk is common on our roofs, and we pull it out of the gutters as part of the clear. If the roof itself is streaked with the algae feeding the problem, roof washing treats the source so the gutters stay clean longer between visits.
