How often should I clean my gutters? - Cars & Trucks

Hello, Anne -

I can understand your frustration and anger regarding the gutter work done on your home. However, no one with Fixya.com did that work. Fixya.com is a website intended for asking and answering questions on how to go about repairing things. Plus, you may not realize it, but your question landed in the Fixya category for Cars & Trucks.

You will need to remember the name of the company with which you contracted for the gutter work and contact it.

If you reside in the USA, you can file a complaint about the company's work with the Better Business Bureau:
https://www.bbb.org/en/us

Depending upon where you reside, there may be a government agency which oversees consumer complaints. I have no idea where you reside, so I cannot refer you to the proper agency.

There are also some online consumer complaint websites:

P1zzedConsumer (have to spell it that way or the Fixya.com "bad word" algorithm will block it)

Best wishes.

If you are talking about for a house, I found this. Are gutter guards worth it DIY
But if you are talking about rain guards for vehicles then I'd have to say yes! I bought some for my car through ebay and they were easy to apply and I love mine and after 4 years, they are still working good. I can crack my window while its raining without getting soaked.

Hello again Connie
Long time no see :>D Did you every get that roof fixed?

It depends on how it is fixed to the house, but it needs to have a 'fall on it. That means it needs to be lower at the downspout end and higher at the other end. It also needs support about every 2 feet to stop the aluminium gutter sagging.

check seals on rear lights

look on hooded vent area( under windshield whippers) sometimes there is a drain line that gets plugged with leave and dirt use a air line blow through and clean out this should do it

hi from uk the sunroof water drain holes are situated within the gutter below the sn roof surround seal and are both at each rear corner/s of sunroof to un blocktry a length of wire preferably plastic coated and poke the wire and twist as you push in drain tubes then use a small water can as u would use for indoor plants and pour hot water gently into the gutter if main blockage has disturbed ? hot water will/should flush the drain tubes thro you could also continue poking with wire too ? i use a length of wire from house lighting 1;0 mm" use either live or neutral wires (insulated) this always works for me TIP! when you wash car raise sunroof and clean gutter channel with rag to prevent dust collection blocking holes/drains in future
