The Importance of Gutter Cleaning

Gutter cleaning isn’t just a chore you should consider doing. It is an absolutely essential chore for ensuring the safety and well-being of your home’s residents and the materials used to build it. If your gutters are clogged, stormwater may flow down the side of your home, or worse, this water may pool and lead to mold growth.

As this mold grows, you may even notice signs of it creeping indoors. While the mold makes its way into your home, pests may make themselves at home in the pooling water. From mosquitos and mice to spiders and more, uncleaned gutters are the perfect home for these pests. But, your gutters don’t have to be a stress on your shoulders. 

By scheduling professional gutter cleaning, you don’t have to worry about potential mold exposure, storm water damaging your home, or an unexpected pest infestation. Instead, water will flow through the gutter system and away from your home, protecting you from soil erosion, damaged siding, and pests in your space. 

One of the most important parts of these cleaning services is ensuring timely gutter cleaning to keep your home safe from inclement weather and unexpected storm damage. But how often should you schedule these cleanings? The answer may vary greatly depending on the foliage surrounding your home and your neighborhood environment. 

Our Blue Gander team recommends scheduling a thorough cleaning of your gutters at least twice a year. Spring cleanings are essential for removing old, rotted twigs, leaves, and debris from the wet fall and winter seasons. By scheduling this cleaning, you guarantee water can flow smoothly through the gutter when spring rain comes to town. 

Fall cleanings are equally important, as they help you prepare for the increase in leaf shedding that can lead to clogged gutters. Clearing out debris before winter sets in can prevent water from freezing in the gutters, which can cause them to expand and crack, potentially damaging your home’s exterior and causing a high repair bill. 

However, if your neighborhood has heavy foliage or you experience more frequent storms than normal, you may have to schedule cleanings more frequently. Regular inspections after severe weather events are also recommended to address any immediate issues promptly. Ultimately, our goal at Blue Gander is to maintain clean gutters year-round to protect your home from water damage and incredibly costly repairs.
