Oh yeah, now for some tech. Do you need to make repairs, or just clean it. If you are cleaning, buy one of these (or borrow mine).

Not just cleaning ... I have a plugged section (that was just cleaned) and am making some changes. I suspect the downpipe up at the top is plugged, so I may need to disassemble and clean. Really I need to replace the 3" with a 4" so I might do that at the same time. At the same time I'm putting in the foam gutter filters from Home Depot. I had done a small section a couple years ago and have been mostly happy with them, so I'm putting them on the whole house (and garage, and shed, and poolhouse!)
I've got a guy that has been walking the roof and cleaning everything twice a year for like $40 a pop. He's great, but several areas have become problematic and I don't want to have him come more often.
