Island Gutters strongly recommends that homeowners do not clean their own gutters. Even a short fall from a ladder can cause serious injury.

Most homeowners do not think about their gutters until the first heavy rain of the season, when clogged gutters spill water down the walls and onto the foundation. Gutters protect your roof edge, siding and basement, and it does not take long for a clogged or damaged system to cause expensive damage.

We are experienced installers of K-style and half round gutters in aluminum, galvanized and copper, and we offer programs that clean, repair and maintain your gutters for years to come.

Island Gutters is a trusted name providing affordable and effective leaf protection systems. Gutter cleaning is serious business. Please do not attempt to clean your own gutters. Even the smallest fall can result in serious injuries or death. Home owners usually try to flush their own gutters washing down all the debris into their underground drainage system. This will plug or block your drainage system or block the long down spout.

When we clean your gutters we will also inspect the gutter system and the roof surface for roofing problems. If we find anything that needs further attention, we will provide you recommendations that could save you literally hundreds of dollars in damages before they become more serious.


Depending upon your home’s location (more trees, more debris removal), you may need to clean your gutters more or less often. Many clients will sign up for maintenance program, just to make sure their homes are maintained properly.

Gutter Cleaning, Repair & Maintenance FAQs

How often should gutters be cleaned on Long Island?

It depends on your trees. Homes under heavy oak and maple cover may need cleaning several times a year, while open lots need less. We can set up a maintenance program so your gutters are cleaned on a schedule.

Why shouldn't I clean my own gutters?

Ladder falls cause serious injuries every year, even from a short height. Flushing debris down the leaders with a hose can also plug underground drainage lines. Our crews clean by hand and check that the leaders run free.

Do you inspect the roof when you clean?

Yes. While cleaning we inspect the gutter system and the roof surface. If we spot a problem, we give you a recommendation before it turns into a costly repair.

Can you repair gutters instead of replacing them?

Often, yes. We repair loose hangers, leaking corners, bad pitch and damaged leaders. If a system is failing across the board, we will explain the replacement options and our 25-year warranty.
