I don't have to clean the gutters near as much at this house, compared to our last one. Most of the trees are a good bit away from the house. I can't mulch my leaves here most of the time, they are too damn thick!

Morning Steve and Pat. Pat I dont have to clean the gutters at my house at all. Closest trees to the front of my house are across the street and for the back of the house they are at least 40 feet away.

I have one maple tree that is pretty close to the house. I miscalculated when I planted it.. Could have added another 10 feet to the distance from the house.

My one gutter is too high to really clean safely. It is on one side of my second floor and that part of the yard is a hill and the ladder would want to fall towards the front of the house.

At my house to get to that gutter from the roof we have to climb onto the porch roof, then the roof of the main house and then onto the dormer roof. Then you can climb to the roof that has that gutter on it.

Steve, Lowes sells a great gutter cover. Kind of like Gutter Helmet made out of PVC.
