Why Clean My Gutters?
As mentioned above, the main job of your gutter system is to divert water away from the roof and side of your home or business. When gutters are not properly maintained and become clogged they cannot properly do their job, allowing water to pool back onto the roof of your home or business, causing damage.
When To Clean My Gutters?
We recommend checking your gutters regularly to check how much debris is building up. When you notice build up of twigs, leaves and other debris it is recommended to remove them. Be sure to check following storms as well, lots of debris tends to build up during them.
How To Clean My Gutters?
When you notice it is time to maintain and clean your gutters, we recommend using a ladder, hose and gloves to manually clear them. Be sure to use a safe and sturdy ladder and be careful. You can remove the debris using your hands and also wash debris out of the gutter system using the hose.
There are also professional service providers that can maintain and clean your gutters for you, this can be useful for certain homes or businesses that are harder to keep up with.
