Gutter Cleaning Saint-Charles-Borromée
Saint-Charles-Borromée: here's what you get after our visit
Lots of companies clean gutters. Few show you what they did. With us, every visit ends with a report. Here's what's in it.
- 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
1. The "before" photos
The critical areas as we found them: a full gutter, a clogged downspout, a sagging section. It's proof that the work was needed, and a reference for the next visit.
2. The problems found
In plain words, no jargon: a joint leaking above the entrance, a section sagging on the garden side, a downspout that seems connected to the drain, lifted shingles near the chimney (if the pitch allowed the inspection).
3. The work completed
Everything we did, including the small repairs included at no charge: fasteners adjusted, hangers added (up to 10), joints redone (up to 2).
4. The "after" photos
The same spots, clean and repaired.
5. Our recommendations
What we suggest next, with the price if it applies: an extension to carry water away, an extra downspout, Alu-Rex gutter guards if there are lots of trees. You decide, with no pressure.
This report is also useful for your insurer, for a buyer if you sell, or simply to know where things stand.
Municipal bylaws
Gutters: what the bylaw says in Saint-Charles-Borromée
We haven't verified the official text for Saint-Charles-Borromée yet. Here are the rules found in the vast majority of municipalities in the Laurentians and Lanaudière:
- Never connect a downspout to the foundation drain (weeping tile) or to the sewer: it is prohibited in most municipalities in Quebec.
- Release the water on the surface, onto a permeable area (lawn, flower bed), away from the foundation. Required distances generally range from 1 m to 2 m, and 1.5 m is the most common.
- Don't direct water toward the street, the driveway, the sidewalk or the neighbouring lot (Civil Code of Québec, art. 983).
Before any work, confirm the rule with the Saint-Charles-Borromée urban planning department. During our inspection, we flag any downspout connected to the drain or emptying too close to the foundation.
