Tools and Materials Needed:

• Ladder
• Bucket
• Scoop or trowel
• Hose
• Gloves
• Silicone sealant

Step-by-Step Guide:

1. Climb to Roof: Use a sturdy ladder to access your roof safely.
2. Remove Debris from Downspout: Clear any blockages to ensure proper drainage.
3. Remove Debris from Gutters: Use a scoop or trowel to eliminate leaves and other materials.
4. Flush with Hose: Rinse the gutters to remove residual debris and check for proper water flow.
5. Check for and Repair Leaks: Inspect for leaks and seal them with silicone sealant as needed.
