It is a top priority to empty gutters of all debris to ensure that water flows smoothly over the roof and away from the building to avoid property damage to your home, such as unfortunate water infiltration, sagging gutter, soil erosion, black stains on siding and soffits.
We offer gutter cleaning services for residential properties, apartment buildings, and condos in the Montreal area, the North Shore, and the Laurentians.
Autumn is a beautiful season, with its colorful leaves and fresh air. However, it’s also the perfect time to think about home maintenance, particularly your gutters. It’s a top priority before winter arrives to clean them to prevent:
gutters from breaking, leading to costly repairs
When your gutters are blocked, the water they collect has nowhere to drain, and they can fill up. All that extra weight can warp your gutters and even tear them off the roof.
damage to walls and ceilings
Blocked gutters can cause water to seep into your home, affecting walls, ceilings, and foundations. Water can also rot the wooden boards to which the gutters are attached, allowing moisture to penetrate your home.
insects from invading you
The build-up of water in your gutters can be an ideal breeding ground for insects, especially mosquitoes.
water from accumulating near the house and damaging the foundations
Gutters are designed to direct rainwater away from the foundation of your home. In autumn, dead leaves can quickly block these ducts, causing overflows. If the water cannot drain properly, it can build up and cause flooding, damaging foundations and basements.
Don’t let the accumulation of leaves and debris compromise your home safety and health. Taking the time to clean your gutters this autumn is a preventive measure that will save you time and money in the long run.
It is recommended that gutters be cleaned twice a year: in the fall, after the leaves have fallen from the trees, and in the spring, after the buds and fruits have fallen.
