When to clean gutters in Houston
Houston gets about 55.6 inches of rain and snow a year, with the most in June and the least in February. Leaves, seeds and twigs collect in gutters all year, and heavy rain is when a blocked gutter overflows, so the safest plan is a regular schedule:
- Late autumn, after most leaves have fallen, to clear the biggest load before winter.
- Spring, to clear seeds, flowers and anything winter brought down.
- After big storms, check that downspouts drain freely.

Gutter repair, installation and gutter guards in Houston
Cleaning is not the only job people search for in Houston: repairs, new or seamless gutters and leaf guards come up often. If water drips behind the gutter, joints leak or sections sag, ask for a repair quote before the next heavy rain. When gutters are rusted through or pulling away along most of the house, replacement usually makes more sense than patching. Thinking about guards? Our gutter guards guide explains the main types and their trade-offs. Several of the companies below list repairs, installation or guards on their websites; ask each one exactly what they do.
