- Roof pitch. Some pros work from the roof, and steep roofs slow them down.
Do it yourself or hire a pro?
Many homeowners clean one-story gutters themselves with a sturdy ladder, gloves, a scoop and a hose. Keep the ladder on firm, level ground and do not lean out to reach. If you have a bad back, poor balance or no helper to steady the ladder, hiring a pro is a small cost.
