The Importance Of Gutter Cleaning
In addition to maintaining your property’s curb appeal clear gutters are also a requirement for any property maintenance strategy. Having clear gutters is more important than tree trimming or lawn care because blocked gutters can severely damage your home and roof.
If your gutters are not maintained regularly, they can become clogged with leaves, branches and tree saplings. If your gutters are blocked and water cannot flow properly through them, they can cause water to leak into your roof, and to pond on your foundation. This can cause irreparable damage and costly 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 could weigh down your gutters and cause damage to your roof. Bees not only sting, but they can also cause structural damage to your property. This can cause a flood in your home and if water is allowed to collect in the basement or foundation, then it 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 stagnant water attracts mosquitoes as they like to breed in it. Professional gutter cleaners are recommended for removing these pests.
