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. 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.
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 lead to costly repairs and devastating damage.
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.
The weight of a beehive can cause gutter damage and the bees can even penetrate your home. Bees not only sting but 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.
Your gutters will also become a breeding ground for carpenter ants, rodents and termites when they are clogged with leaves and debris.
Clogged gutters can also lead to stagnant water accumulation. Mosquitos are are attracted to the standing water as they like to breed in it. Consult a professional gutter cleaner if you need to remove these pests.
Gutter Cleaning FAQs
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.
What happens if you don't clean gutter?
When you don't clean your gutters, the downspout can get clogged from leaves, debris, or any matter that can wind up there. This blockage then leaves standing water to collect and eventually overflow. Left unattended to, the leaves that clog up your gutter can begin to decompose and eventually rot.
What should gutter cleaning include?
Gutter cleaning is the process of removing any debris, dirt, and leaves from your gutters and downspouts that clog your gutter system and stop rainwater from flowing freely from the roof to the ground. Professionals may scoop the debris by hand or by machine.
Do gutter guards work?
The short answer is yes, gutter guards work. While they can't guarantee that you'll never have clogged gutters again, they can significantly reduce the number of times you need to clean your gutters and lower the risk of damage to your home and property due to clogged gutters and sitting water.
How hard is it to clean your own gutters?
It can be easy to put off cleaning gutters, but it's a necessary job that isn't difficult and will keep them working properly. Rain gutters get clogged with leaves and other debris over time, so it's best to clean them regularly to avoid more difficult work later. The good news is, it's not hard to clean gutters.
