Gutter Cleaning in Atlanta, GA
Atlanta is called the "city in a forest" for a reason. Intown streets are lined with huge oaks, and those trees drop their leaves right onto the roofs of houses built close together on small lots.
Why intown gutters fill fast
- Street oaks. Willow oaks and water oaks line streets in neighborhoods like Virginia-Highland, Morningside and Grant Park. Their small leaves pack into gutters tightly.
- Old houses, small gutters. Many bungalows and Victorians in Inman Park, Kirkwood, Candler Park and West End have older, narrower gutters and fewer downspouts than a new home.
- Tight lots. Houses sit close together, so a neighbor's tree can fill your gutters too.
When to clean in Atlanta
Plan on late spring after pollen and again after the leaves are down. Georgia Public Broadcasting's guide puts the metro Atlanta color peak around early November, so late November into December is usually the best fall window. Big-oak streets often need a winter check too.
Tall, steep and tricky
Intown homes often have steep roofs, second-story dormers and tight side yards where a ladder barely fits. That's the part we handle.
