In the gutter...

OK so I'll admit, we let the gutters on our house languish a bit.  We decided to get them cleaned but couldn't remember the company we used before.  So we checked MOL and there were recommendations for Garden State Gutter Cleaning.  Their price was very reasonable and they were nice and polite on the phone.  

We always check our gutters after they are cleaned to make sure they were cleaned.  Well this time it didn't take much.  There was a weed growing out of our gutter (the main reason we remembered to call).  After the first cleaning it was still there and there were still some leaves in the gutter that were pushed to the end the way it would be if you cleaned the gutter with a hose.  

I called to complain and again they were very nice and said they would send their people out again.  After the second time that weed was STILL THERE!!!!  I could not believe it.  I sent pics to them and said they need to come out with a supervisor or give us our money back.  2 days later GSGC called with a weak apology (and I'm being generous) and thanked me for sending photos and said he wld send someone out and he wld take his own pics. 

OK so 3rd time out the guys ring the bell and our oldest son answers and they tell him those are new leaves because its been 3 weeks sine the first cleaning.  So my husband went outside and spoke to them.  Finally the plant growing out of our gutter is gone!!!  Ugh.

Guess we'll need some other referrals....


I would never have recommended them.....I used them about 15 years ago at another home to replace the gutters on my last home.  They sold me on these leaf blockers that didn't work, where rain just ran over them and not through them, and where ice/snow dammed over them.  They would not come to fix them, I had a whole mess of arguments with them, went to the BBB and the NJ Dept. of Consumer Affairs.  The result was they filed for bankruptcy and then reorganized under the slightly different name.

I used America's Best 973-535-5874.  They will clean your windows after they clean out your gutters, all in one visit.  Good luck!


Another group to avoid: Ned Stevens.


Never had anything more than routine cleaning, but no complaints with Nick Kosh.


Another vote for Nick Kosh. We have used them for three years and are very happy.

Precision Gutters are wonderful. Professional and easy to communicate with.  (973) 706-5680

They put you on a calendar for reminders and call once or twice a year as per your request. 


Thanks everyone.  What a crazy experience! Lol.
