The Importance Of Gutter Cleaning​

Clear gutters on your commercial or residential property are not only important for curb appeal, but also essential for property upkeep strategies. 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 in their hunt for other insects and building hives.

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 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.

Standing water is another issue caused by clogged gutters. Mosquitos are are attracted to the standing water as they like to breed in it. Professional gutter cleaners are recommended for removing these pests.
