We've all been there... the gutters need to be cleaned but there are a million other things that require your attention. Sounds like a good time to hire a professional gutter cleaning service so you can cross that chore off of your list. Sounds easy enough, right? Hiring the best home service provider for your biggest investment can sometimes cause uncertainty... especially if you are searching for a provider for the first time.
You may have googled 'gutter cleaning near me' or have even seen some signs on the road advertising the same service you are looking for. What is the difference between the company you find online versus outside? All service companies are not created equally.
We recommend taking a look a few considerations below for hiring a true home service pro. Once you start asking, you will notice the difference immediately.
EXPERIENCE
How many years has your service provider been in business?
WHY DOES IT MATTER? Experience is everything. A professional with many years of experience will be able to bring more knowledge when servicing your home.
EXPECTATIONS
Establish service expectations including how your provider will communicate with you and what to expect day of service.
WHY DOES IT MATTER? A true professional will have proactive communication with you during every step of the process.
INSURANCE
Ask your service provider for a copy of their Certificate of Insurance (COI) that shows Liability and Workers Comp details. Are they licensed in our state?
WHY DOES IT MATTER? As a home owner, it is important for those on your property to be fully insured in case an accident happens.
PAYMENTS
Determine what your providers payment options are before agreeing to service.
WHY DOES IT MATTER? Full prepayment of large projects is a major red flag and should be avoided.
