The Importance Of Having Your Gutters Cleaned​

Clear gutters are important for both curb appeal and property maintenance. 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 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 as nesting boxes and for hunting other bugs.

A beehive could weigh down your gutters and cause damage to your roof. Bees not only sting but 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.

Clogged gutters can also lead to stagnant water accumulation. Mosquitos are are attracted to the standing water as they like to breed in it. You should seek help from a professional gutter cleaner if you wish to eradicate these pests.
