It is that time of year again, and here in Massachusetts we have been blessed with a very warm November.  We had the perfect combination of weather lately to get the last lingering leaves off the trees, big wind followed by big rain.  Whatever leaves remain on the trees today have made the commitment to stay there for the winter!  The rest are blanketing lawns, driveways and of course, clogging up your gutters and downspouts.   Cleaning gutters is a pain in the *&^*% job, but it MUST be done, and it MUST be done at least twice a year.  I actually clean my gutters three or four times a year.  It is as simple as this, if the gutters are clogged with debris the water cannot flow through them.  If the water cannot flow through them, it will flow over them. And that is bad!  Remember, the purpose of a gutter on your roof line is to move large quantities of water AWAY from your house.
