When was the last time you checked your gutters? In Seattle’s rainy climate, ignoring clogged gutters can lead to costly damage to your roof, siding, and foundation. Here are 5 signs it’s time to book a professional gutter cleaning now — before it’s too late.
If you see water pouring over the edges instead of through the downspouts, your gutters are blocked. Overflow can damage your landscaping and seep into your foundation. Schedule a gutter cleaning service immediately.
Grass, weeds, or small trees sprouting from your gutters means debris has been sitting there for too long. This can lead to mold and pest infestations. Combine cleaning with roof cleaning to clear any debris from above.
Heavy buildup of leaves and debris can weigh gutters down, causing them to sag or pull away from your home. This can damage your siding and roofline. Pair your gutter check with pressure washing to keep your exterior surfaces spotless.
Water stains on your siding or cracks near the foundation are warning signs that your gutters aren’t directing water away properly. Prevent expensive repairs with regular window cleaning and gutter inspections.
Standing water and debris attract mosquitoes, birds, and rodents. If you see signs of pests, it’s time to clear out the gutters. Take advantage of the season to combine cleaning with Christmas lights installation to keep everything tidy.
Spotting these signs early can save you thousands in repairs. Combine your window washing and gutter cleaning for complete exterior care.
