Gutter cleaning, repair and new gutters in Bullhead City, AZ

When to clean gutters in Bullhead City

Frost is rare in Bullhead City, and in many years there is none (NOAA normals). With no hard freeze to strip the trees, the fall cleaning follows the leaf drop itself; book it once the trees over the roof are bare, and plan a second visit in spring.

When to clean gutters explains how the trees over a roof change the schedule.

Gutter and downspout size for Bullhead City rain

The short, hard downpour is what a gutter is sized for. In Bullhead City the five-minute rain expected about once in ten years falls at 3.95 inches an hour (NOAA Atlas 14 Volume 1). At that rate one 2-by-3-inch downspout drains about 1,820 square feet of roof and one 3-by-4-inch downspout about 3,650, by the rule in the Copper Development Association’s design handbook. Try your own roof in the gutter and downspout calculator, which starts from this figure.

Bullhead City is dry by national standards, about 5 inches in a normal year, but much of the rain that does come can arrive in short, hard storms: the five-minute downpour expected once in ten years still runs at 3.95 inches an hour. Where gutters are used here, the job is moving that burst away from the foundation, and keeping a dry season’s dust and debris from blocking the first storm.
