Problems With Clogged/Dirty Gutters
When you have gutters that are clogged with leaves, needles, dirt and other contaminants, this means that any water that gets to the gutter will have to go somewhere. It might overtop the gutter and spill to the ground, causing additional moisture by the foundation of your home. It could also run down the facia on your home and spill to the ground, causing twice the damage both to the home and the ground. And wet material in the gutters is heavy, and it could be enough to rip down parts of your gutter that aren’t well secured.
Clogged gutters are also great breeding grounds for insects and other pests. Mosquitoes and other insects can use your gutters as their home and they may end up inside your home. Decaying material can provide a great place for seeds carried on the wind to take root and start growing like a small garden in your gutters. This buildup can reach your shingles and start to rot and destroy the roof.
Benefits To Gutter Cleaning
Because your home is likely your largest investment, it only makes sense that you will take care of it. Gutter cleaning is important so that you prevent any water damage to your home and foundation. Curb appeal is raised when there are no trees or other things growing out of your gutters. You will save yourself money from having to replace parts of your roof prematurely, and your home won’t have any streaking from the water overtopping the gutters because they are clogged.
