The Importance Of Keeping Your Gutters Clean
In addition to maintaining your property’s curb appeal clear gutters are also a requirement for any property maintenance strategy. Clear gutters are even more important that tree trimming and lawn maintenance as blocked gutters can result in major damage to your house, particularly your roof.
Your gutters can get blocked over time by leaves, branches, saplings, or other debris if they aren’t cleaned regularly. If your gutters get blocked, water may not flow freely through them. Your roof will become wetter and water will start to seep into your home. This can cause severe damage to your property and lead to expensive repairs.
In addition to damaging your property clogged gutters can also be a breeding ground for bees, wasps, hornets, mosquitoes and insects. They use them in their hunt for other insects and building hives.
A beehive may cause severe damage to your gutters, and the bees could even get into your roof. Apart from stinging bees can also cause structural damage to your property. This could lead to a flood inside your home, which if the water accumulates in your basement or foundations can cause serious mold and mildew problems.
When filled with leaves or other debris they also provide a perfect environment to allow rodents, termites and carpenter ants to thrive.
The accumulation of stagnant rainwater is another problem that can be caused by blocked gutters. Standing water also attracts mosquitoes as they like to breed in it. Consult a professional gutter cleaner if you need to remove these pests.
Gutter Cleaners FAQs
How often should the gutters be cleaned on a house?
As a minimum, you should check your gutters twice a year - once after autumn and once after spring. If the weather is particularly bad throughout the year, you should check on them three or four times – just in case there's more debris than normal.
What happens if you don't clean gutter?
When you don't clean your gutters, the downspout can get clogged from leaves, debris, or any matter that can wind up there. This blockage then leaves standing water to collect and eventually overflow. Left unattended to, the leaves that clog up your gutter can begin to decompose and eventually rot.
What should gutter cleaning include?
Gutter cleaning is the process of removing any debris, dirt, and leaves from your gutters and downspouts that clog your gutter system and stop rainwater from flowing freely from the roof to the ground. Professionals may scoop the debris by hand or by machine.
Do gutter guards work?
The short answer is yes, gutter guards work. While they can't guarantee that you'll never have clogged gutters again, they can significantly reduce the number of times you need to clean your gutters and lower the risk of damage to your home and property due to clogged gutters and sitting water.
