Cleaning your gutters is an important aspect of maintaining your home. Clean gutters continue to move water efficiently and away from areas where it could cause significant damage, potentially saving you thousands and thousands of dollars in repair and replacement costs.

Clogged Gutters

If your gutters don’t have a gutter guard or do not get a proper cleaning when necessary, you’re risking some seriously clogged gutters. Clogged gutters do not drain water effectively, and may allow it to back up onto the roof or directly hit the home.

Gutters need to be cleaned at least two to three times per year to keep them free of debris that may be blocking them. The Storm Master Gutter team can clean out all of the trash from your gutter system and even install a guard to slow the collection of clogging agents.

Gutters can show several different signs of clogging, and some of them are easier to spot than others. One of the greatest signs that your gutter is clogged is the overflow. You’ll be able to tell that a gutter needs cleaning if, when it rains, you notice heavier pouring in an area because the overflow will run out of the system like a small waterfall.

You can also check for the water coming out of the downspout. Usually, a clean gutter puts out generous water flow due to the collective water draining through the particular downspout. If the flow is very light, especially during a heavy pour, it may be time to clean the gutters.

Some gutters have sharp corners that may separate and begin to leak over time. These leaks, if not tended to quickly, can produce some scary inconsistencies in your gutter’s effectiveness. Having a leaking spot in your gutter leads to a larger leak and potential replacement becoming necessary if the gutter breaks altogether.

Gutters get dirty, but it should only be with substances that are actually dirty. There are plenty of substances that would simply wipe off of gutters, but corrosion will not. Corrosion is like a decaying process for metal, where it weakens to the point of becoming very brittle over time. Corrosion can lead to high replacement costs for water damage and perhaps the gutter system, too.

Keeping an eye on your gutter systems consistently is the key to keeping them clean and saving yourself a lot of money in the process. The Storm Master team can come and take a look at your gutters to estimate your cleaning cost, and they can complete the job for you, too.
