PROFESSIONAL GUTTER CLEANING BY WEATHERGUARD

When it comes to caring for your house, make sure you add cleaning gutters to your yearly home maintenance checklist. Rain gutters are an essential part of your house as they help transport water away, preventing your home from costly water damage.

As the weather changes, debris collects in the gutters creating a soft layer and the perfect environment for mildew and moss to grow. This gets thicker over time, making it impossible for water to flow through your gutters.

Prevention is the key to avoid gutter issues and expensive repairs! Gutter cleaning can help prevent the build up of environmental materials, like dust, sticks, leaves, snow and ice. Regular gutter cleaning will keep your gutters from overflowing and causing water damage to your property.

If your gutters are not cleaned properly, the rainwater won’t flow properly. During a heavy rain fall, the gutter will fill up with water and overflow. When this happens, most homeowners think they have a leaky gutter, but in this case the capacity of the system is simply being exceeded by the volume of the water. This can also put a lot of extra weight into your gutter system and lead to other gutter issues.

when should I have my gutters cleaned?

Regular maintenance and cleaning of your gutter system is the best way for your gutters to last longer.

We recommend that your gutters and down-pipes are checked and cleaned up to four times per year to ensure they are running well when you most need them, during the winter and rainy season in the Lower Mainland. Cleaning your gutters is essential for preventing a variety of problems and costly water damage to your house.

As a general guideline, you should clean your gutters at least once per year to prevent clogs and buildup. However, if you ever notice water leaking, dripping, or spilling over the edge of your gutter, that’s a sign that cleaning or repair is needed right away!

During winter, freezing conditions can damage your gutter systems. Try to keep your gutters clear of excessive snow loads to prevent freeze from happening. If you have overhanging trees or big windstorms close to your home, you should get your gutters cleaned more often. Other factors that may impact how often you should clean your gutters include types of gutter debris, the location of your property, if there are trees nearby, and the type, size, and shape of roof.

The timing of cleaning your gutters can help prolong its life and minimize damage as well. There are many factors to consider when choosing the best time to clean your gutter system, but we usually recommend these two seasons:

➝ Late Fall, when most leaves have already fallen and just before the start of winter and before the first snowfall.

➝ Early Spring, so your gutters are ready to handle heavier spring rains.
