The Importance Of Having Your Gutters Cleaned
Clear gutters on your commercial or residential property are not only important for curb appeal, but also essential for property upkeep strategies. Having clear gutters is more important than tree trimming or lawn care because blocked gutters can severely damage your home and roof.
If gutters are not regularly cleaned, they can become blocked from leaves, branches, tree saplings, etc. If your gutters get blocked, water may not flow freely through them. Your roof will become wetter and water will start to seep into your home. This can lead to extensive damage to your property and expensive repairs.
In addition to damaging your property clogged gutters can also be a breeding ground for bees, wasps, hornets, mosquitoes and insects. They use them to make hives and hunt other insect species.
A beehive can cause a lotto damage to your gutters and roof, which can allow the bees to get into your home. Bees not only sting but can also cause structural damage to your property. This can lead to flooding in to your home which can damage many things, plus if the water accumulates in the basement or foundations this can cause serious mold and mildew problems.
Your gutters will also become a breeding ground for carpenter ants, rodents and termites when they are clogged with leaves and debris.
Standing water is another issue caused by clogged gutters. Mosquitos are are attracted to the standing water as they like to breed in it. Professional gutter cleaners are recommended for removing these pests.

Gutter Cleaning FAQs
What happens if gutters are not cleaned?
When you don't clean your gutters, the downspout can get clogged from leaves, debris, or any matter that can wind up there. This blockage then leaves standing water to collect and eventually overflow. Left unattended to, the leaves that clog up your gutter can begin to decompose and eventually rot.
Can you use a leaf blower to clean gutters?
Just as it replaces tedious raking on the ground, using a leaf blower to clean your gutters prevents the need to remove debris by hand. The most straightforward method is to climb a ladder onto the roof and walk along the edge, blowing the leaves out of the gutter as you go. A safer method is to use an extension kit.
Can I clean my own gutters?
To clean gutters by hand, you'll need a ladder, bucket, gutter scoop (or garden trowel), and heavy-duty work gloves. Little by little, take out the leaves and debris, placing what you remove into the bucket. Finally, flush the gutters and downspout with water until you are certain both are functioning correctly.
Can you clean gutters from the ground?
If you're cleaning your gutters during a dry spell, you can also try using a leaf blower from the ground to move dirt and debris. Many leaf blowers come with extension and curved attachments that can make this job a bit easier. If not, you can get these types kits at a local hardware store.
