Gutter Cleaning Saint-Roch-Ouest

Saint-Roch-Ouest: August, the forgotten month

Everyone thinks about gutters in November. Yet August is when you have time to take a good look and plan.

  • 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

The August check

  • Did the summer storms make the gutters overflow? Where?
  • Are the extensions still in place after a summer of mowing?
  • Have branches grown over the roof?
  • Has a section sagged?
  • Was the basement damp after a heavy rain?

Why plan now

The weeks of late October and November are the most in demand. By asking for your price in August, you have time to pick your moment, after the leaves fall and before the frost.

The fall maintenance

Gutters emptied by hand, downspouts cleared, up to 2 joints and 10 hangers included, before/after photos. Roof inspection if the pitch is 7/12 or less. Where the water should go.

Municipal bylaws

Gutters: what the bylaw says in Saint-Roch-Ouest

We haven't verified the official text for Saint-Roch-Ouest 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-Roch-Ouest urban planning department. During our inspection, we flag any downspout connected to the drain or emptying too close to the foundation.
