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. Keeping your gutters clean is more important than lawn trimming or tree trimming because blocked gutters can cause major damage to your home, particularly your roof.

If you don’t clean your gutters regularly, then they can become blocked by branches, leaves, tree saplings, and other debris. 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 lead to extensive damage to your property and expensive repairs.

In addition to property damage clogged gutters are also a perfect breeding place for insects, bees, wasps hornets and mosquitoes. They use them for their nests and to hunt other insects.

A beehive can cause a lotto damage to your gutters and roof, which can allow the bees to get into your home. Bees not only sting, but they 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.

The leaves and other debris also creates a favorable environment for termites, rodents and carpenter ants.

The accumulation of stagnant rainwater is another problem that can be caused by blocked gutters. Standing water attracts mosquitos and other insects, which breed in stagnant water. You should seek help from a professional gutter cleaner if you wish to eradicate these pests.

These expand as more water enters, and can eventually compromise the foundations of your homeLeft unattended to, the leaves that clog up your gutter can begin to decompose and eventually rot

Can you clean gutters from the ground?

Cleaning gutters from the ground is effective and is by far the safest gutter cleaning method. You will need to proceed slowly and systematically because you can't really see what you're doing, and yes, it will probably take you a little longer than it would if you were standing on a ladder.

Can you clean gutters in winter?

Winter Gutter Cleaning Tending to gutters in the cold winter months may sound like a daunting task, however, it is perhaps the most important time for a gutter system to function optimally. During the early winter months, there may still be leaves, nuts and other debris falling from the trees.

Is standing water in gutters normal?

Standing water in your gutters is not normal and can indicate a major problem. Gutters protect your home from basement flooding, mold growth, and foundation problems.

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.
