Gutter Cleaning: Leave It To The Experts

Gutters are easy to forget until they stop working. If ignored for too long, clogged gutters can cause water damage and problems with your foundation, roof, or landscaping, which can be costly.  

Drain Right Guttering can save you time and money with a seasonal maintenance plan that includes gutter cleanings. With this plan, you can know that your drainage system is operating correctly all year—and you won’t need to climb a ladder.

Why You Need to Clean Your Gutters  

There are many reasons for keeping your gutters clean. We’ve listed a few of the main ones here.

• Prevent Water Damage: Clean gutters ensure rainwater flows away from your roof and foundation, reducing the risk of leaks and structural damage.
• Prevent Clogs: Debris, such as leaves, twigs, and pine needles, can clog your gutters, leading to overflow and potential damage.
• Reduce Pest Infestations: Stagnant water in clogged gutters can attract pests like mosquitoes, rodents, and insects.
• Extend Gutter Life: Keeping your gutters clean helps to extend their lifespan by reducing the risk of standing water, which can cause rust and corrosion.
• Prevent Ice Dams: Clean gutters can help prevent the formation of ice dams during winter months.

When to Clean Gutters

• Frequency: Usually, you’ll need your gutters cleaned at least twice a year, in the spring and fall. In areas like ours with heavy foliage or rainfall, you may need to clean them more often.

  Before colder months, clean gutters to prevent ice dams and ensure proper drainage.
