We get a decent amount of rain here in the South Central region of Pennsylvania. If your rain gutters are not properly draining the water away from your home, you could be in danger of serious home damages. Without gutters, water would collect around your foundation and that is never a good thing. Gutters play a very important role in the condition our homes stay in. The only problem with gutters is, they collect all the leaves and debris that falls from the trees and other areas. This causes blockages that will restrict the water flow and potentially cause harm to your gutter system or home.
When your gutters become clogged, water flow is restricted and water will run out the front or even the back. When water leaks out the front of your gutters, it can leave black marks on your home/building from the dirty water continuously draining on it. When water is forced out the back of the gutter system, it can leak inside your home and could possibly create mold. Also, if you have fascia boards/rafters behind the gutter, they will begin to rot.
Gutter cleaning is the best solution to prevent any harm to your home or building. Gutter cleaning is the simple process of removing leaves and debris from gutter systems and unclogging and blockages that may occur. Many professional gutter cleaning companies will offer services such as, checking to make sure the gutter system is secure and working properly, cleaning the outside of gutter system for appearance purposes and even a good flush to make sure even the smallest pine needles are removed.
Along with gutter cleaning, it may be a good idea to look into some gutter guards if you live in a heavily wooded area. Gutter guards will help to limit the amount of debris that enters your gutter system and will make it so you have to clean them less often.
