The Importance Of Having Your Gutters Cleaned
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.
Your gutters can get blocked over time by leaves, branches, saplings, or other debris if they aren’t cleaned regularly. 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 severe damage to your property and lead to expensive 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.
A beehive can cause a lotto damage to your gutters and roof, which can allow the bees to get into your home. Apart from 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.
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. Standing water attracts mosquitos and other insects, which breed in stagnant water. Professional gutter cleaners are recommended for removing these pests.
Gutter Cleaning Frequently Asked Questions
What happens if you dont clean roof gutters?
Over time, the downspout will get clogged from leaves, debris, or any matter that can wind up there. This blockage then leaves standing water to collect and eventually overflow and seep through into your walls and roof, creating cracks and fissures along the way. 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.
