SERVPRO is here to help. It is important to take time and reduce damage to your property by keeping your homes gutters cleaned out from debris to prevent excess water from building up. During the fall months is when most gutters become clogged due to all the leaves falling and when left clogged though out the winter months can cause ice dams to build up leaving you with potential for severe roof damage. In the spring and summer when gutters are left with debris from previous months can cause the gutter to detach from your house causing roof, soffit, and foundation problems by letting water seep in.  If let go for long periods of time the water sitting in your gutters during the warmer months can become a breeding ground for insects, mold, and weeds on your homes roof. With routine seasonal cleaning you can prevent multiple gutter issues and if you’re looking for better protection you can simply install gutter guards which are a screen that locks inside your gutter and allows water to enter and keeps the unwanted debris out allowing water to flow freely away from your house.
