Cleaning the gutters by hand one or two times per year. The advantage to having gutters cleaned by hand is knowing that your gutter system will be inspected every year by professionals and any minor adjustments will be made ensuring the functionality of the gutters.
Having your system cleared is typically more economical up-front than having gutter guards installed. However, they can strengthen the gutter system and may increase the longevity of your gutter system and ultimately, in the long run, may be worth the extra up-front cost.
