How Do You Know When Your Gutters Need Cleaning?

Over time, gutters can become filled with moss, leaves and debris that fall from your roof. If left untouched it can block water from draining away properly and often lead to damaged drainpipes and property. Whether a residential or commercial building, blocked gutters can damage windows, doors, guttering, and even the foundation of the building.

A blockage in your gutters or downpipes may not always be visible from ground level however, there are a few tell-tale signs to look out for, such as:

  • Overflowing water, trickling down the side of your gutters during rainfall
  • Stains occurring on or around the foundations of the building
  • Sagging gutters or gutters that have pulled away from the wall slightly
  • The growth of plants and weeds in your gutters
  • Birds, animals, or pests nesting in the gutter

  • What Happens if Your Gutters Become Clogged?

    Gutters are an integral part of any building. They serve to control the flow of rainwater to protect your roof, walls, foundation and landscape. When your gutters are clogged with debris, leaks can occur, and damage begins to become evident. If not dealt with, damage to the roof and fascia can cause serious roof problems such as wood rot, which in turn can lead to pooling at the foundations and damaged or cracked foundations. Such damage can, in time, undermine the integrity of the structure. This is where Metro Rod can help!

    Regular gutter cleaning will reduce the risk of long term damage to your home and place of work, helping to prevent the possibility of serious water related damage. This can consequently save you money on expensive and difficult repairs. Gutter cleaning and maintenance aims to save home owners from devastating and costly damage to your property, but it doesn’t need to be a chore!

  • What Should I Do When My Gutters Are Clogged?

    Gutter maintenance is often avoided because of access difficulty and a lack of space or stability for ladder use. Often, this is the most common reason guttering becomes neglected. Here at Metro Rod, we recommend cleaning your gutters at least twice a year – once in the Spring and once in Autumn to clear out the falling debris and prevent clogging. However, if you live in an area with a higher volume of tree fallout than most, we recommend maintaining your gutters up to 4 times a year to ensure your gutters remain free flowing and clear.
    To make this process as easy as possible, we recommend our innovative Sky Vac gutter cleaning system to do the hard work for you, for both domestic and commercial properties.
