Your gutters may perform a simple function, but they are actually crucial to your overall protection. They preserve your home’s structural integrity by driving rainwater away from your property. That said, it’s important to keep them in top form all year round to avoid costly damage. Here are maintenance tips from Carolina Gutter Helmet®:
Don’t Delay Repairs
Do your gutters have small cracks or holes? Maybe they’re sagging or improperly pitched? When you detect problems in the system, have an expert perform a thorough inspection and the needed repairs. Postponing repairs can cause more leaks, which can damage the fascia or even the foundation.
Clean Your Gutters Regularly
Clogs are the most common problem that gutters face. Water can overflow and affect the vulnerable components on your exterior if you neglect clogging. The heft of debris buildup and standing water can also cause the system to pull away from your home. That said, it’s important to clean your gutters at least twice a year, preferably during spring and fall. You can also hire a professional to do it for you.
