Gutter Cleaning Saint-Augustin

Saint-Augustin: your gutters may have tenants

Between fields and woods, wildlife finds gutters very handy. A shelter up high, water, nesting material. For the gutter, it's less fun.

  • 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

Who moves in, and what it causes

BirdsNests of twigs and grass, often near the downspoutsClogged downspout, overflowing
SquirrelsShells, cones, stored nutsBlocked gutter, gutter guard sometimes moved
WaspsNests under the roof edge or in the gutterDanger for whoever climbs the ladder
Insects and mosquitoesStanding waterA gutter that doesn't drain

How we work

We empty the gutters by hand, clear the downspouts and remove abandoned nests that block the flow. If we find an active wasp nest, we don't take any chances: we point it out, with a photo, so you can call an exterminator. We also redo up to 2 joints and 10 hangers, included in the price.

For fewer visitors

An Alu-Rex gutter guard closes the gutter to debris and makes it much less inviting for nests. Clear downspouts and a gutter that drains well also prevent standing water.

Municipal bylaws

Gutters: what the bylaw says in Mirabel

Official text verified Weeping tile allowed by the bylaw
  • Water from a sloped roof may be drained by infiltration into the weeping tile, or drain onto a paved and drained surface next to the building.
  • Connecting gutters to the building drain is only allowed when rainwater leaders aren't possible.
  • No rainwater may be released into the City's sanitary sewer.
  • The foundation drain discharge system must be fitted with backwater valves.
NoteMirabel is more permissive than its neighbours about the weeping tile. Our recommendation stays the same: direct the water on the surface, onto a permeable area away from the foundation, so you don't overload the drain or the sump pump.
