Gutter Cleaning Saint-Janvier

Saint-Janvier: renting, and the gutters overflow?

You rent an apartment or a house, and you see water pouring down like a curtain in front of the window every time it rains. Climbing the ladder isn't your job, but you can help get the problem fixed.

  • 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

What you can observe

  • Water overflowing the gutter during the rain.
  • A downspout that doesn't flow, or empties at the foot of the wall.
  • Thick icicles in winter above the entrance or the balcony.
  • Dampness, a smell or water marks in the basement.
  • A gutter hanging down or pulled away.

How to report it

Write to your landlord, ideally by email or text to keep a record. Describe what you see, when, and attach a photo or a short video taken during the rain. It says much more than a description. Icicles above an entrance are also a safety issue: mention it.

What the landlord can do

They can hire us for the maintenance: online quote, with no visit, and nobody needs to be there. We empty the gutters by hand, clear the downspouts, redo up to 2 joints and 10 hangers, and send the before/after photos to the landlord. You can pass this page along.

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.
