Gutters are designed to do one thing: direct water safely away from your premises. This is a critical function that prevents your property from incurring costly water damage. To make sure your home is well protected throughout the seasons, you need to keep your gutters in good shape at all times.
In today’s post, Gutter Helmet® of Minnesota shares handy tips on taking care of your gutters:
Clean Your Gutters Regularly
Gutters are prone to debris buildup due to their open nature. Left unattended, clogs will form, causing water to spill over the sides of the gutter. Water can back onto your roof, pour onto your siding, and pool around your foundation, causing premature wear. It can also cause basement flooding and landscaping erosion, which can impair your home’s structural integrity. Prevent these costly issues by cleaning your gutters at least twice a year or after a storm. You can also avoid the burden of cleaning gutters with gutter guards.
Don’t Delay Repairs
If your gutters have sustained cracks, holes or other signs of damage, it’s important to call a professional to address these issues immediately. Prompt attention to gutter issues will spare your home from extensive water damage and prolong the lifespan of your system.
Install a Gutter Guard
To ease the hassles of gutter maintenance, we recommend investing in a gutter protection system. Gutter Helmet, the best gutter guard system in the market, prevents gutter clogging by filtering out debris, helping maintain an efficient water flow into your drainage system.
