Gutter Cleaning in Mission!
Fall is here in Mission and leaves are coming down in droves.Build up of debris from wind and rain can cause water to pool in your gutters, and this can lead to roof or interior damage, mould, flood damage, and even structural damage in the worst of cases. Gutter cleaning should always be a top priority each year in the early Fall.
Why you need a gutter cleaning service
Our gutters are designed to help direct the flow of water away from our homes. The persistent, and often endless, rains we get in Mission run off the roof into the gutter, down the spout and out onto the lawn in an area that will runoff away from the foundation of your home.
Over the Spring, Summer and Fall debris can build up in your home’s gutters. Leaves, pine needles, acorns, and other such debris can clog your gutters which then overflow, and there’s no shortage of falling debris here in Mission.
Not only can the gutters get clogged, but the spouts can get damaged, leaving the run off water pooling at your foundation instead of being directed away. Don’t risk structural damage by omitting to do your gutter cleaning. Call BC Mowing and More! at 1-833-999-5467 for a free gutter cleaning quote!

Doing gutter cleaning yourself?
If you choose to do your gutter cleaning yourself, safety should always be your top priority. Many accidents occur from gutter cleaning in Mission every year because of slippery weather conditions combined with ladder work. Ladders should always be properly set up and spotters should always be present to hold the ladder, provide first iad, or call for help. Harnesses should always be used for second storey gutters and when appropriate.
Any time you are doing work higher than 6 feet off of the ground you are putting yourself at great risk. Although we encourage our community to be active and try their home maintenance themselves when time permits, we also strongly encourage our customers to trust the professionals to do any work at height, especially gutter cleaning in slippery and wet conditions.
If you would like try your own gutter cleaning in Mission there are several methods you can use, which all depends on your comfort level, equipment, and bucket. You’ll need a ladder tall enough to reach your gutters, but aside from that, the most basic things you will need are some heavy duty gloves, a garden trowel or gutter scooper, and a bucket. To clean it by hand, you’ll want to slowly use the trowel to slowly scoop out the debris and dump it into your bucket. When you’ve scooped out as much as you can, you’ll need to go to the furthest point away from the downspout with a hose and wash away whatever lingering debris you can.
In Mission, there are some some other methods we use at BC Mowing and More! for gutter cleaning to get the job done right including a leaf blower, a wet/shop vacuum, and power washer or garden hose. If you have the right tools and experience using these for these methods, you could decide to try them. However, the risk from these methods is much higher than by hand. To use a blower, you might find yourself hanging onto the ladder while operating this power tool, or perhaps you may need to get fully onto the roof get the job done properly. While these methods are quicker and more effective than hand cleaning, these methods are also far more dangerous. Always use harnesses when working at heights.
