The New Tecumseth scheduling window
We aim to complete pre-winter gutter cleaning on New Tecumseth homes by the last Saturday in October. Book by Labour Day for that window — after that we're scheduling against weather.
Best month to schedule gutter cleaning in New Tecumseth
Late September through mid-November is the sweet spot: New Tecumseth averages 158cm of snow starting in December, so roof access closes fast. Spring bookings (April–May) are second-best and often 10–15% cheaper.
What breaks in each season
Winter: ice loading on the cap and flashing. Spring: freeze-thaw cracking in the crown from 72 annual cycles. Summer: UV degradation on any exposed sealant. Fall: raccoon and squirrel nesting before the cold snap.
Common questions
Are you WETT and WSIB certified?
Yes — WETT SITE-Comprehensive #C-46082, CSIA #12408, and active WSIB #7248194. Certificates emailed on request before the job.
How long does gutter cleaning take in New Tecumseth?
60–120 min is typical for a straightforward job. Bookings in dense downtown zones add 15–20 minutes for parking and staging.
Do you offer same-day gutter cleaning in New Tecumseth?
Usually — call before 9am and we'll confirm a same-day arrival window inside New Tecumseth for most standard scopes.
What warranty do you offer on gutter cleaning in New Tecumseth?
Five-year written workmanship warranty on materials and labour, transferable to a new homeowner within that window. Manufacturer warranties on any installed products pass through separately.
Do you service condos and heritage homes in New Tecumseth?
Yes. Condo boards in New Tecumseth typically want a scope letter and insurance certificate 48 hours out; heritage properties need product substitutions we pre-source.
Is gutter cleaning covered by home insurance in New Tecumseth?
Sudden damage (storm, animal, appliance failure) is usually covered minus deductible. Gradual wear generally isn't. A written pro assessment before the claim call materially improves outcomes.
Do you need a permit for gutter cleaning in New Tecumseth?
Cleaning and inspection are permit-exempt in New Tecumseth. Structural masonry, liner replacement, or a new appliance install typically need one — we pull it as part of the job when required.
What if it rains or snows on the booking day?
Roof-side work reschedules to the next dry window at no charge. Interior scopes (firebox, damper, appliance) proceed regardless.
