will both add a lot of time to the gutter cleaning process.

The service gutter cleaning companies provide, is removing the debris from the insides of the gutters and downspouts. This is to ensure proper water flow throughout the entire gutter system and prevent damages that come from clogs in the gutter. All gutter cleaning companies perform their gutter cleaning services differently. Some bag and remove all of the debris, while others will use only leaf blowers. Most companies do a combination of both. Either way, they are supposed to leave your property clean of leaves and debris. (Unless your yard is already covered in leaves) Another thing companies may or may not do, is use water to flush the gutters and downspouts. Be sure to check with your local gutter cleaner to know if they flush with water or not. Keep in mind there are ways to verify if the downspout is clogged or not, without using water.
