They were on time and very fast. Bagged everything and unclogged two of my downpipes. Very happy with their work. Service: Gutter cleaning

Our townhome community hired this company for gutter cleaning in the community and they are horrible. Never again. I would not recommend them to anyone. First they just show up randomly without scheduling a time to clean. Then they use leaf blowers to blow all the debris from the gutters onto roof, and underlying property. They also did not clean up any of the dirt and debris they left on the properties from blowing it with a leaf blower instead of taking it out by hand from the gutters and bagging it like a professional company would. They also did not respond to repeated request to come back and clean up. I do not recommend this company at all.

This company installed gutters on my home twelve years ago. They continue to check and maintain them. The product and installation has been proven to be of great quality. The most recent service this company rendered was cleaning of the gutters. The customer service was professional, yet caring. This review was neither solicited nor compensated for in any way.

I would not recommend using this company. I have called Ethan several times and have emailed him. I have gotten no response back from him. He installed gutters, downspouts and gutter guards for @ $3000.00 a few years back. Now I am having some issues with the hangers coming loose and a downspout. Its been weeks now that I have tried to reach him. I guess now that the job is complete they don't back their product. I will not be using him again and would recommend others to use another more responsive company and professional company.

Missed the initial quote appointment with no heads up, missed the work date with no heads up, and managed to install gutters that still let the rain run down the fascia. Also tore the paint off the fascia when tearing off the old gutters, which looks terrible. In their haste to leave, the crew also left previous gutter material (metal and vinyl) in the yard, as well as all the torn paint and gutter leaves/trash in the yard and vegetation.

I have reached out several times to discuss their "warrantied" labor, but no response by email, text, or call. Ethan seemed like a good enough guy when we met, but the business does not reflect that whatsoever. The rusted and sapling-growing gutters that were previously on the house at least moved the water to the gable ends of the home. I regret involving these contractors in my first home purchase. Edit: Through the BBB complaint process, Mind in the Gutter came back out and installed flashing, adjusted some downspout/elbows, and touched up the damaged paint.

I have no issues with the resolution to date, and I am satisfied with the current condition. This was likely a communication issue more than anything, as Ethan stated he had to pull my emails from spam. This was the same email address that had worked earlier, so I am unsure where the issue arose.

This is not ok. This is not what I had in mind when I got gutter guards I should have got the ones that are slanted that go over the top and not a net to build up all this so now I still need to have someone come out and clean them.

Efficient and thorough! I coordinated and scheduled my gutter-cleaning all via email which was very convenient. I am extremely happy with the customer service beforehand as well as the day of my cleaning. They cleaned everything up afterwards and notified us of the major blockage they'd discovered and cleared. Their price was fair and I definitely recommend Mind In The Gutter!

I had a gutter appt scheduled a month in advance and they did not even show up or contact me in anyway to let me know otherwise. Looking at some other reviews this seems to be a trend.

I have used Mind In The Gutter for many years, but can no longer recommend them. They do not respond to calls or emails on a timely basis, they do not show up for scheduled appointments, they do not notify you when they can't make it, and they do a poor job when they finally do arrive. They just make excuses for their poor business practices if they do respond.

I've had them do gutter cleaning and repair work. Their prices were fair and I did not have trouble with them keeping appointmenta.
