Your gutters perform the vital function of protecting other areas of your home from run-off water brought about by rain. Their open nature means that leaves and other debris can accumulate over time. Unfortunately, it can be hard to peek into your gutters. Huff ‘N Puff looks at the two biggest risks of untended clogs, and the solution that best matches these problems.
The Problems with Clogged Gutters
Clogged gutters pose two significant threats. The first is overflow. Water from clogged gutters will go everywhere, potentially damaging your home’s foundation, walls, and other vulnerable areas. This leads to problems that will cost you a lot of money. Another problem is once the weight of the debris becomes too much for your gutters to bear, it can cause the structure to collapse. This can cause injury or, most likely, thousands of dollars in damage.
The One Solution
Addressing these problems in the long term is easy with gutter protection in Schenectady NY, and the local area, specifically Gutter Helmet®. It’s a unique system that covers the entirety of the gutter, leaving only a small 3/8” slit below a protruding nose as the only access point. This means that only water is will go through the slit. Leaves and other larger debris will be easily pushed off to the ground, where they can be easily swept away.
Gutter Helmet will make your roof look even better. It blends smoothly with the rest of your roofing, effectively hiding your gutter. That is because the color options we offer match some of the more popular roofing colors today. By installing Gutter Helmet, you will never have to worry about cleaning your gutters ever again.
