About This Service

What Is
Gutter Brightening?

Those dark vertical streaks running down the exterior of your gutters aren't dirt — they're tiger stripes, caused by oxidation and the electrostatic bond between roof runoff, pollutants, and your gutters' aluminum surface. Standard pressure washing won't remove them. Gutter brightening is a specialized cleaning process that uses professional-grade solutions specifically formulated to break the electrostatic bond and dissolve oxidation — restoring your gutters' bright, clean appearance without replacement.

Surfaces We Clean

Aluminum gutters, vinyl gutters, painted gutters, seamless gutters, and all standard residential gutter profiles

Why It Matters

Tiger stripes are one of the most common complaints we hear from Hampton Roads homeowners — and one of the most misunderstood. Many homeowners assume new gutters are the only solution. Gutter brightening costs a fraction of replacement and delivers dramatic results in a single visit. The difference between before and after is remarkable.

Common Questions

Gutter Brightening
FAQ

What causes tiger stripes on gutters?
Tiger stripes are caused by electrostatic bonding of oxidized aluminum, roof runoff, pollution, and organic material to the exterior surface of your gutters. They're extremely common in Hampton Roads due to our climate and are not removable by standard pressure washing.
Can't I just pressure wash the tiger stripes off?
No — tiger stripes have an electrostatic bond to the gutter surface that pressure alone cannot break. Gutter brightening uses specialized chemical solutions that dissolve this bond, which is the only effective removal method.
Is gutter brightening the same as gutter cleaning?
No — they're two different services. Gutter cleaning removes debris from inside the gutters to restore water flow. Gutter brightening cleans the exterior surface to remove tiger stripes and oxidation. Both services can be done in the same visit.
How long do results last?
Results typically last 1-3 years depending on tree coverage, roof material, and weather exposure. We recommend combining brightening with regular gutter cleaning to maintain results.
