Sep 09, 2015KEEPING GUTTERS FREE FLOWING KEEPS YOUR HOME SAFE FROM DAMAGE
It’s almost fall and that means rain and leaves will soon be on their way. Keeping your gutters free flowing and in good condition so that they drain water properly away from your home and don’t retain water, is a key component in protecting your home and landscape from weather related damage. Wood rot and mold are just two of the many problems that can be caused by leaky, improperly working gutter systems. A gutter repair specialist likeTrim A Seal of Indiana can help you identify leaks and problem areas before water damage occurs.
Keeping gutters clean and in good repair is key. Start first by cleaning your gutters. You will need a ladder, gloves and a bucket for this. After you are done clearing the gutters and downspouts of leaves and debris using your hands, use a hose to wash the gutters clean and inspect for any leaks. Also be sure that the gutters are not coming loose from the roof and that they are firmly attached. This will help prevent damage down the road. Improperly installed or damaged gutters can tear away from a home causing extensive damage. A professionalgutter companywill be able to install brackets that firmly hold and support your gutter system, even in winter – holding heavy snows and ice.
