Why is Gutter Cleaning Essential for Your Home?

Keeping gutters clean is essential to preserve the structure of your property and avoid problems such as infiltration, leaks and even damage to the foundations. Many people neglect this maintenance, but a clogged gutter can cause expensive and unnecessary damage.

In this first CWB Rain Gutters blog post, we’ll explain why regular gutter cleaning is so important and how it can protect your home.

The Risks of Neglecting Gutter Cleaning

WATER ACCUMULATION and INFILTRATION Leaves, branches and other debris can clog gutters, preventing rainwater from draining properly. Dammed water can overflow and seep into the walls, ceilings and even the structure of the house.
ROOF DAMAGE The weight of the accumulated water can deform the gutters and compromise the roof’s fixation. Constant humidity encourages the appearance of mold and the deterioration of roof tiles.
FOUNDATION PROBLEMS When the water is not directed correctly by the conductors, it can run off near the base of the house, causing cracks and erosion in the soil.
INCREASE IN PESTS Clogged gutters are a perfect environment for mosquitoes, rats and even cockroaches, which thrive on standing water and accumulated organic matter.

How often should I clean my gutters?

Ideally, you should clean at least twice a year, preferably in early fall (after the leaves have fallen) and spring. In places with a lot of trees, maintenance may be necessary every three months.
