By: Frazier Roofs & Gutters Frazier Roofs & Gutters1 HOW TO CLEAN YOUR GUTTERS SAFELY
IT STARTS WITH LADDER Frazier Roofs & Gutters2 Make sure you have a spotter to hold the ladder. For single-story buildings, a 4-legged ladder will suffice. If you’re cleaning the gutters of a structure that is 2 stories or more, you will need an extension ladder in order to adequately reach the system. Assess your equipment for any loose parts or defects. Avoid using any type of ladder incapable of a secure balance.
THE GARDEN HOSE & GUTTER SCOOP You’ll want to grab a garden hose with a spray nozzle that has an adjustable water-pressure gauge. You’ll need to scoop away debris and discard them in your collection bin. You can purchase a plastic scooping tool. Steer clear of scooping tools composed of metal material; these instruments tend to scratch and damage gutters.scratch and damage gutters Frazier Roofs & Gutters3
AVOID INJURY BY PROTECTING YOUR HANDS Gloves are essential for shielding hands from dirt, rotting leaves, and bacteria-ridden debris that have squirrel or bird droppings on them. Gloves that use thick, suede material are the best option. Frazier Roofs & Gutters4
PROTECTIVE EYEWEAR IS THE KEY Protective goggles are essential. As you’re clearing out those loaded gutters, debris will likely shoot out unexpectedly. Frazier Roofs & Gutters5
Regularly cleaning your gutters will also prevent water damage and rust corrosion from developing. Frazier Roofs & Gutters6 PENCIL IN ROUTING CLEANINGS
