Your gutter system plays a crucial role in protecting your home, but it must be kept clean to function properly. If debris accumulates in the channels, it can block proper water flow, leading to standing water and potential overflow. When gutters overflow, they can damage the gutter walls, roof tiles, and even the siding of your home.
Throughout the year, debris from trees and roofing materials will collect in your gutters. Even if your system has good drainage, this buildup can cause water to pool, eventually overflowing and leading to water damage. Ice accumulation during colder months can further compromise your gutters, increasing the risk of leaks and costly repairs.
Most homeowners clean their gutters twice a year:
Ignoring regular gutter maintenance can result in serious damage to your home. When water leaks behind your siding, mold and mildew can form, leading to costly repairs. Additionally, water pooling around your foundation can cause basement flooding, which may also result in mold growth and structural issues.
