The questions, and our answers

Question to askOur answer
Do you carry liability insurance?Yes, $2M.
Is the price set in advance, in writing?Yes, before the work.
Do you clean by hand or with a pressure washer?By hand.
Are the downspouts included?Yes, cleared, elbows included.
Are small repairs billed as extras?Up to 2 joints and 10 hangers are included.
Do you pick up the debris?Yes.
Will I get proof of the work?Yes, before/after photos.
Will you try to sell me something else?No. We don't install new gutters. If a section needs replacing, we tell you, and that's it.

Red flags

Be wary of a price given only verbally, full payment demanded up front, a company that can't confirm its insurance, or someone announcing that your roof needs "urgent replacement" with no photo to back it up.

And the bylaw?

A good contractor knows your town's rules. In Mirabel, construction bylaw U-2302 tolerates soaking into the weeping tile in some cases, but we always recommend releasing water on the surface, away from the foundation. The bylaw.

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.
