Let God do it. He put them there and he should blow them off.

I would assume it would be someone that has the equipment to get the leaves off the roof, probably a blower, more importantly someone with young legs that is small in stature...

In some homes, the leaves get trapped between the pool cage and house. If you don't have them removed, your house rots.

jebartle, I hope someone gives the name of someone that will do the job.

Between my house and my birdcage is a gutter. Maybe check with some handyman services to see if they clean gutters.

Go to virginiatrace.com and open the "good services" list, scroll to handymen, or gutter cleaning and try calling a few of those folks. Also a lawn service may do it for an extra charge, they have the blowers with them anyway.

Default thanks starflyte1
and you are right, we have a birdcage and roof that catch leaves, leaves rot in gutter and have to be removed BUT the real problem is that we have a tile roof and don't want the tiles to break...So we are damned if we do, and damned if we don't, that is why I was looking for a small person that is agile and can move without breaking tiles.....A dilemma

Just had our gutters cleaned of acorns from our large live oak.

We always use Mark Oliver, 352 793 8100. Also does power washing.

Reliable and reasonable.
