When to clean gutters in Boulevard Park
The first fall frost comes around November 17 in a typical year here, and the last spring frost around March 13 (median dates, NOAA normals). A fall cleaning set for the weeks after that frost, when the branches over the house are bare, gets the year’s leaves in one trip; a spring visit follows once the pollen and catkins have come down.

Weather and gutters in Boulevard Park
NOAA Atlas 14 does not cover Washington and Oregon, so there is no current federal estimate of the short downpour for Boulevard Park; NOAA plans published Atlas 15 estimates for the lower 48 states no earlier than September 2027. Here gutters are sized from the roof and the local building department’s design rate.
The houses in Boulevard Park
Half the homes in Boulevard Park were built by 1971, 70% before 1980 (ACS 2020–2024). At that age a gutter has seen decades of leaves and storms, and the fascia it hangs from has too. On a house built before 1978, replacing more than 20 square feet of painted fascia or trim falls under the EPA’s lead-safe rule, so ask whether the crew is certified.
51% of households own their home, and 43% of homes are detached houses, 1% townhouses. Where an HOA governs the exterior, its rules on gutter color and style apply before any order is placed.
