The Importance Of Keeping Your Gutters Clean
Clear gutters on your commercial or residential property are not only important for curb appeal, but also essential for property upkeep strategies. 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.
If gutters are not regularly cleaned, they can become blocked from leaves, branches, tree saplings, etc. 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 irreparable damage and costly repairs.
As well as damaging your property clogged gutters provide a perfect environment for mosquitoes, bees, wasps, hornets and other insects to breed. They use them as nesting boxes and for hunting other bugs.
The weight of a beehive can cause gutter damage and the bees can even penetrate your home. As well as stinging bees can also cause structural damage to your property. This can lead to flooding in to your home which can damage many things, plus if the water accumulates in the basement or foundations this can cause serious mold and mildew problems.
If they are full of leaves and debris, they provide the perfect environment for carpenter ants, rodents and termites to flourish.
Standing water is another issue caused by clogged gutters. Standing water also attracts mosquitoes as they like to breed in it. Professional gutter cleaners are recommended for removing these pests.
