When a winter storm rolls in off the valley and up into the Browns Valley foothills, it can drop a lot of rain fast. Homes along the Highway 20 corridor and on the ridges above it, many on large lots with long views toward the Sutter Buttes, get the full force of it. Gutters are your first line of defense, and they only work when they are clear.
On sloped lots, water that overflows a gutter does not just pool. It runs. It can wash out landscaping, cut channels through bare ground and carry mud onto patios and walkways. Clear gutters and open downspouts send water where your drainage was designed to take it.

Before the first big storm:
Look for sagging runs or gutters pulling away from the fascia.
Check that downspout extensions are in place and pointing away from the house.
Make sure nothing is growing in the gutters.
Book a cleaning if you see debris from the ground.
We clear every gutter run by hand, flush each downspout, take a look at hangers and seams, and haul debris away. On larger properties, we can include garages, shops and barns.
