Gutter Cleaning Laval-sur-le-Lac

Laval-sur-le-Lac: a letter about your gutters

Dear homeowner, allow us a few lines about a part of your house that is easily forgotten, as long as it doesn't overflow.

  • Complete maintenance: roof blown off, gutters emptied by hand, downspouts cleared
  • Included at no charge: fasteners, up to 2 joints and 10 hangers
  • Proof: before/after photos and report
  • Quote: online, no visit

Why we're writing to you

Properties in Laval-sur-le-Lac often have large grounds, mature trees and roofs with many lines: dormers, valleys, several slopes. Each valley channels water and leaves toward the same point in the gutter. That's where overflows begin, often without anyone seeing them, behind a hedge or above a flower bed.

What we propose

A complete maintenance, done by hand, without you needing to be present. We empty every section, clear the downspouts, redo up to 2 joints and add up to 10 hangers, all included in the price. If the pitch of your roof allows (7/12 or less), we inspect it as well.

You then receive a report with before/after photos, which you can pass on to your property manager or keep with the house documents.

One clarification, if we may

We do not install new gutters. If a section is too damaged to repair, we will point it out, with photos, so that you can consult an installer. Our work is maintenance, and we prefer to do it very well.

Yours sincerely,
The Gouttière Propre team
