Nick Rivers
Gutter Cleaning Services was a complete
pleasure to do business with. The good
reviews here led me to call to have my
gutters serviced after neglectful install of
flimsy shields had produced condos for birds
and waterfalls and icicles on my house.
Recent heavy winds had left some large
branches on the roof too. Within an hour and
a half of arriving, Nick and his partner had
the roof cleared, shields removed, and
gutters flowing cleanly again. In their
opinions, the shields were pretty good
quality, but had not been installed
correctly. Nick estimated even without the
shields I would never need gutters cleaned
again. And though I hope he is right, I will
not hesitate to call him again if ever
needed. The before/after pictures really
illustrated the problem Nick was able to
resolve.

After
successfully ignoring my gutters at my old
house, I decided that the ones in my new (to
me) house needed them cleaned. This is
because there where two spots where the
water was apparently building up, and
spilling over the top of the gutter... right
above the door. I searched on Angie's List
and found that this company had good
reviews. When I looked at their website, it
didn't list my (Towson) area, but on a whim,
I called and they cover the area. And
fortuitously enough, they were actually
doing another job in Towson the following
day, so I made an appt. He arrived on time,
early even. He was very thorough and took
before and after photos. He pointed out a
few problems, recommending moving the
extensions to facilitate drainage, and
adjusted a few problem areas. He cheerfully
explained what he was doing, and made
recommendations. Since I was home, I paid
him right then, but I like that he was
willing to leave a bill if I hadn't been
home. I really like the idea of the before
and after photos, that show the work that
was actually done., since I couldn't
otherwise see the actual work.

We have NEVER
been able to get reliable gutter cleaning
but found this company through Angie's List
and couldn't be happier. Nick Rivers gave us
general info over the phone about pricing
and told us what the charge would be for our
home and what their procedures are. Other
companies we called would not give us prices
until they were on-site and could provide an
estimate. We agreed that Nick Rivers could
arrive the next day, generally in the
morning since we knew we would be home
tending to another project. However, given
our past experience with gutter cleaners in
general, we actually booked two additional
companies as back-up. Nick Rivers was the
first company to arrive, so they got the
job. We already knew their price was
acceptable. Traditionally they take before
and after photos, and we did receive our
photos by email later that day, but since we
were present during the cleaning, we felt
that we did not really need photo
confirmation. Still, it was nice to see
exactly what was forming our blockages.
During the job, Nick Rivers discovered that
one of our miter joints was leaking, so they
took time to dry the gutter and seal it with
silicone. They did not charge extra for
this. Several days after this cleaning,
tropical storm Hanna affected our area with
almost 2 inches of rain, and we had no
issues with gutters or downspouts. Nick
Rivers sometimes works when homeowners are
not home, however, I feel we cannot
accurately attest to that since we were, in
fact home when they did the work. They spent
about 1.5 hours total on our job. Our only
concern was that one of our downspouts has a
long extension on it that takes the water to
the very edge of our property. The extension
is somewhat obscured by our front flower
garden, so maybe NR did not notice it. After
they left we did have to flush the extension
to remove the debris that had been washed
down the downspout during the cleaning. But
all our major trouble spots were clear and
we feel they offer a fair price compared to
what we've paid in the past for contractors
that weren't nearly as thorough.

This Guy is Great!
This guy is great! He
has a passion for cleaning gutters. He takes before
and after photos to show you what he did. He endured
wasps, cut overhanging branches, cleaned my severely
clogged gutters, and looked like he really enjoyed
doing it! All of this was for a flat rate that he
told me after only hearing the size and style of my
home. I'll be having him back seasonally for an
encore performance.
