Roofs don't die from age. They die from neglect. Water that can't get away sits where it shouldn't, and by the time there's a stain on a ceiling the damage has been happening for months.
Sacramento gets most of its rain in a short window, so gutters that are full going into November cause problems that show up in January.

When you need a roofer instead of me
I do repairs, not roofs. If your roof needs a tear-off, a re-deck, a large section replaced, or the leak is structural, that's a licensed roofing contractor's job and I'll tell you so rather than patching something that needs replacing.
Saying that costs me work sometimes. It also means that when I do say a repair will hold, you can believe me.
Questions
Straight answers
- How often should gutters be cleaned in Sacramento?
- Once a year for most houses, before the winter rain. Twice if you have heavy tree cover — and the older neighborhoods here have plenty of mature trees.
- Can you find where my roof is leaking?
- Often, yes. Water travels, so the stain inside is rarely under the actual entry point. Photos of both the inside stain and the roof above it help a lot.
- Do gutter guards actually work?
- Some do. The mistake is simple: large mesh lets small debris in, it gets wet, and then it composts in your gutter. I'll tell you which type suits your trees.
