Gutter & Roof Cleaning — With Care for Nature

A tiny nest changed our plan — here’s how we clean with respect for wildlife.

A few days ago, on a bright spring morning, we arrived for a scheduled gutter cleaning and roof cleaning. We expected the usual: clear leaves, moss, and debris so water can flow right.

But nature had other plans. While checking the gutters, we found a bird’s nest tucked into a clogged corner. Inside were tiny, newly hatched chicks.

What We Did

  • Paused the job and talked with the homeowner.
  • Left that area untouched to protect the nest.
  • Cleaned the rest of the roof and gutters safely.
  • Scheduled a follow-up after the birds leave.

How We Clean — The Wildlife-Friendly Way

  • We inspect before we start — especially corners and downspouts.
  • If we find wildlife, we stop, inform you, and plan around it.
  • We avoid harsh methods near nests and plants.
  • We use plant-safe products and mindful rinsing.

Sometimes a routine cleanup is a reminder: caring for a home also means caring for the world around it.

Tips for Homeowners

  • Book gutter and roof maintenance in spring and fall.
  • Consider gutter guards if trees are nearby.
  • Keep an eye out for nests before the season starts.
