The small job that prevents big bills
Why blocked gutters get expensive
A gutter has one job: take the water coming off your roof and send it away from your house. When it is packed with leaves, conifer needles or shingle granules, it stops doing that job — and the water finds another route.
That route usually runs through one of three places: down your exterior cladding, straight against your foundation, or — worst of all — back up under the bottom course of shingles, which gives you a leak through the ceiling.
That is why we push this with our clients, particularly in areas lined with large mature trees like Ahuntsic, Cartierville and many Laval neighbourhoods. Clearing the gutters is a few dozen minutes of work that prevents four-figure repairs.
Signs they need cleaning
Most of these you can spot from your driveway, without a ladder.
Water spilling over the edge
During rain, water runs over the lip instead of down the gutter. The most obvious sign there is.
Plants growing in them
Green shoots visible from the ground mean enough soil has built up for seeds to germinate.
A row of icicles in winter
A full gutter freezes solid. Icicles lined up along the roof edge are the classic symptom.
Streaks on the cladding
Dark runs on the wall below the gutter mean water has been spilling over for a while already.
Water in the basement
A gutter emptying against the foundation is a frequent cause of basement damp after heavy rain.
The gutter is sagging
The weight of debris gradually pulls the brackets loose. If it is leaning, it is probably full.
How we work
Simple, fast, and no surprises on the price.
You call, we assess
One call is enough. We ask a few questions about your property and confirm a price before coming out.
We clear and flush
Debris removed from the gutters and downspouts, then we check the water runs properly all the way to the ground.
We check the roof while we are there
We are roofers first. While we are up there, we look at the shingles, the flashing and the roof edge.
We tell you what we saw
An honest rundown. If everything is fine we tell you that too — it happens often, and it is good news.
What to know before having your gutters cleaned
Twice a year is the baseline
In spring to clear what winter left behind, and in autumn once the leaves are down. If your property is surrounded by mature trees, a third visit in late autumn is often justified — that is the case on a lot of streets in Ahuntsic, Cartierville and the established neighbourhoods of Laval.
Autumn timing matters more than you would think
Cleaning too early in October means doing it again. The ideal is to wait until most of the leaves are down, but before the first serious frost. A full gutter that freezes is much harder — and riskier — to clear.
Why call a roofer rather than a handyman
Because half the time the gutter is not the problem. Overflowing water can come from inadequate slope, a badly fitted drip edge, or a downspout blocked inside the wall. A roofer sees the difference from the roof, and saves you paying twice for the same symptom.
Falling is the real risk
We understand the urge to do it yourself, but ladder falls during gutter maintenance send people to hospital in Quebec every year. Our crews are on roofs every day, with the equipment and the insurance that goes with it.
Why trust your gutters to Toiture AM
We do not just empty a gutter and drive off. Because we work on roofs every day in Montreal and Laval, we catch problems while they are still small.

What gutter cleaning costs
The price depends on the total length of gutter, the number of storeys and how accessible the house is. A single-storey bungalow and a triplex with a back lane do not take the same time or the same equipment.
What does not change is how we do it: we confirm the amount before coming out, and that is what you pay. Give us a call — it takes two minutes to work out on the phone.
Price confirmed before any work
Call for your price — the gutter length and number of storeys are enough for us to give you a figure.

Frequently asked questions — Gutter Cleaning
Clear answers to the questions we get asked most about this service.
How often should gutters be cleaned?
Twice a year minimum: in spring, and in autumn once the leaves are down. If large trees overhang your house, an extra visit in late autumn is often necessary.
Do you come out urgently if my gutters are overflowing?
Yes, our team is available 7 days a week for emergencies in Montreal and Laval. For an active situation during a storm, call us directly rather than going through the form.
How much does it cost?
It depends on the gutter length, the number of storeys and the access around the house. We confirm a price on the phone before coming out, and that is the amount you pay.
Do you clean the downspouts too?
Yes, and it matters: a clean gutter with a blocked downspout still overflows. We check the full run all the way to the ground outlet.
Can I do it myself?
It is feasible on a single-storey bungalow, but ladder falls are the leading cause of injury during this kind of maintenance. On two storeys, or with a steep pitch, it is not worth the risk.
My gutters overflow even after a cleaning — why?
Often because the gutter is not the problem: inadequate slope, a downspout blocked inside the wall, or a badly installed drip edge letting water get behind. That is exactly what a roofer can diagnose from the roof.
Do you serve all of Montreal and Laval?
Yes, the whole island of Montreal and all of Laval, including Chomedey, Sainte-Rose, Ahuntsic, Rosemont and Verdun. We also cover Longueuil and the North Shore.
Should gutters be cleaned before winter?
Yes, it is the most important visit of the year. A full gutter freezes solid, which encourages ice dams and water getting in under the bottom shingles.
