How Often Should Gutters Be Cleaned in the PNW?

Pacific Northwest homes need more frequent gutter maintenance than most regions. Learn the recommended schedule and warning signs.

At minimum, twice per year — once in spring (April–May) and once in fall (October–November). Homes with large trees overhead or heavy canopy should clean 3–4 times annually. Oregon's 7-month rainy season means clogged gutters cause damage faster than in drier climates. If it's been more than 6 months since your last cleaning, it's time.
