How often should I inspect and clean apartment gutters and downspouts?

It is generally recommended to inspect and clean apartment gutters and downspouts at least twice a year. However, the frequency may vary depending on the specific weather conditions, surrounding environment, and the types of trees or vegetation in the vicinity. If your apartment is located in an area with heavy rainfall, frequent storms, or lots of trees shedding leaves, it may be necessary to inspect and clean gutters and downspouts more frequently. Regular maintenance is crucial to ensure proper water drainage and prevent potential damage to the building's foundation or walls.
