Gutter Cleaning Glen Allen | Best Time To Clean Your Gutters This content was written for Window Ninjas Window & Pressure Cleaning. There are so many reasons to get your gutters cleaned! Getting a gutter cleaning Glen Allen service will not only keep critters out, but will also last longer on your home, and prevent damage from happening to it. Your gutters are there to protect your walls, ceilings, floors, foundation, and much more from water damage! They also keep your roof safe during the colder months! I'll explain each of these benefits a little more throughout this article, however you can also call and speak with one of our amazing sales representatives as well! You can reach us at 804-256-3221, or you can request an appointment at windowninjas.com today! Like I said before, a gutter cleaning Glen Allen service will keep critters out of your gutters! How so, you ask? Well critters like snakes, birds, squirrels, mice, and other rodents use the debris in your dirty gutters as shelter! It's a warm and homey environment for them. There is also a great supply of food for them close by. To keep them out we recommend getting your gutters cleaned at least twice a year. The best times of year are June or July, and December or January. This is because during this time of year all or most of the debris has fallen for the season. Your gutters will also last longer in your home! Your gutters are attached to the fascia boards on your home. They are mounted just below the roof. Clogged gutters tend to overflow, causing damage to the fascia boards. They can rot away if left unattended for too long, and may give in under the weight of the gutters, allowing for the gutters to detach from your home. Keeping them clean will ensure no water overflow. We also inspect your gutters as we clean them and will be able to alert you of any damages we may see before they get out of hand. During the colder weather a clogged gutter can hold water which will turn into ice. This will create another problem that you'll have to deal with all season long. One of the functions of the gutters is to prevent icicles from forming on the roof; they can damage the shingles. An obstruction gutter makes matters worse than the added weight of the ice can practically rip a gutter from the fascia boards. To make matters worse, neglecting to get a gutter cleaning Glen Allen service will also cause problems with your roof. The roof protects your home from changing weather conditions, more specifically the sun, snow and rain. Clogged gutters are likely to cause a leaky roof because the water and melted ice won't be flowing well through the drain. This water will stay on the roof until it finds a way to the insulation, drywall and plaster of your home. Once this water is moved into the ceiling and wall cavities it causes stains. Water stains in the ceiling are easier to repair as you can just paint over them. when it comes to water stains on the walls that can be more intensive repairs that you will have to do. The moisture could rock the wall and produce more considered to be serious damage. My family learned this the hard way with hurricane Florence of 2018. We had a clogged downspout in the back corner of our house. This clogged downspout ended up overflowing and causing foundational flooding and flooding that went into our walls. We ended up losing our home because the wall and it had mold in it and started the flooring of the back bedroom. This could've been avoided how we checked to see if our downspouts and gutters were clogged. So we recommend getting a gutter cleaning Glen Allen service done before any big storms or hurricanes as well. A blocked gutter can affect every aspect of your home including the foundation. Overflowing water from the gutter can go anywhere but it most likely runs down into the foundation. This water that collects hair can freeze during the winter seasons which will cause problems with your integrity and strength of your foundation. Overflow and gutters can also cause basement flooding if you have a basement that's gonna be a real problem. So why choose Window Ninjas when it comes to all your gutter cleaning Glen Allen needs?
