When should I clean my gutters in Toronto?

Do gutters cause ice dams on Toronto homes?

Gutters don't cause ice dams — attic heat loss does — but a full or damaged gutter makes the resulting ice damage far worse. In Toronto, the fix is layered: R-50+ attic insulation, continuous soffit-to-ridge ventilation, a sealed ice & water shield 6 ft up from the eave, and clean gutters heading into winter.
