Eavestrough cleaning in St. Catharines and across Niagara.

Clogged eavestroughs overflow against the fascia, the foundation and the walkway below. We clear them and check the downspouts are running, so the water ends up where it should.

What a cleaning visit covers

For homeowners

Once a year is the minimum. Houses with trees overhead usually need a second visit. You'll get a straight answer on which one your house is.

For property managers

On a townhome complex, eavestroughs are dozens of small problems that turn into one big one — usually an ice dam or a wet basement unit. Put them on the maintenance calendar instead.

  • Cleaning scheduled around leaf fall, across every building
  • Downspouts and discharge checked at each visit
  • Problems reported per building, so you can act on them
  • Bundled with grounds or snow under one contact

Why timing matters

The best time for a cleaning is late fall, after the leaves are down and before the first hard freeze. Clean too early and the troughs fill up again; too late and whatever's left freezes in place.

Blocked eavestroughs in winter are how ice dams start: meltwater backs up behind ice at the roof edge and works its way under the shingles.

Eavestrough cleaning: common questions

How often should eavestroughs be cleaned?

At least once a year, usually in late fall. Houses with trees overhanging the roof often need a spring visit too.

Do gutter guards mean I never have to clean my eavestroughs?

No. They cut down how often, but fine debris still collects and needs clearing — just less of it.

Which areas do you cover?

St. Catharines (every part of the city), Niagara Falls (Mount Carmel, Chippawa and the Garner Road area), Thorold (Central Thorold, Confederation Heights, Rolling Meadows and Beaverdams), Fonthill, Niagara-on-the-Lake (Old Town, Virgil, Queenston, St. Davids and Glendale) and Welland. Close by and not sure? Ask — it's a quick answer.

In winter, the same company clears snow in St. Catharines — including Merritton, Western Hill, the Haig and Glenridge near Brock University — and Thorold. How snow contracts work
