What Time Of Year Should Gutters Be Cleaned In Malibu?
It is a must to have your rain gutters cleaned before a rainstorm. Typically in the Bu, seasonal rainstorms happen during the winter months of November through March.
Whether you hire a professional or take on the responsibility to clean gutters yourself, routine gutter cleaning is best practice.
With the volatility of Mother Nature, we never really know when the next rainstorm will happen. What we do know is Malibu has rolling elevations, tall trees, strong Santa Ana winds, and dry debris due to the warm climate. These factors create the perfect condition for gutters to be full of dirt, dry leaves, branches, and even critters. Therefore, if you reside in the Bu, routine gutter cleaning should be done every 6 months.
What Happens If I Don’t Clean My Gutters?
If you have a clogged gutter system in Malibu, you are at risk of both a fire hazard and water intrusion to your property. In reference to the wildfires of recent years, many Malibu homes have an accumulation of dry debris in their rain gutters. This is a fire hazard.
In addition, overflowing stormwater from faulty gutters can damage siding, windows, fascia, and roofing. Note to mention, overflowing to any landscaping you may have. If the aforementioned facade elements to your home are subject to water incursion, the damage results in staining, mold, rotten, and cracked exterior surfaces.
Can I Clean Rain Gutters Myself?
If you would like to clean gutters yourself you can experiment with a wet/dry vacuum, and curved attachment to reach your gutter from a standing position on the ground.
Cleaning rain gutters using a ladder can be very dangerous. According to the US Department of labor, 20 percent of work-related falls that result in death were from a ladder.[1]
Safety:
RayAccess technicians are trained in fall protection techniques. Many of our technicians are experienced rock climbers making them very comfortable working at height. RayAccess workers are certified to use the full spectrum of access equipment such as ladders, man lifts, suspended scaffolding, swing stages, and Industrial Rope Access.
Industrial Rope access has the highest safety ratings with regard to working at height. When we need to work on the roof to clean gutter systems, rope access is invaluable. The Mediterranean tiled roofs common in many Malibu homes make it very difficult to work on. Using rope access, our technicians can easily work on the roofs and clean rain gutters.
How Do Professionals Clean Gutters?
Besides having the skills and access equipment to safely work at height, a professional malibu gutter cleaning practitioner completes a 4 steps process to ensure a clean and functional gutter system.
- Removal of all debris, leaves, dirt, etc
- Unclogging downspouts

How Much Should It Cost To Have My Gutters Cleaned?

- Access difficulty and height of the gutter system?
- Length of the gutter system and quantity of downspouts?
- How much debris is in the gutters?
