Rain gutters are important to a home or business location. Clean gutters direct the stream of rain from a home’s roof and guide the water to a downspout that funnels rain away from the exterior of a house and the foundation.
Obstructed or damaged gutters lead to numerous problems, some serious:
If a gutter is dirty and rain starts to pool inside, the rain will then begin to pool at the edge of the roof. This damages shingles on a roof and can result in cracks forming. Cracks in the shingles can result in leaking from the home’s ceiling which could lead to leaking in the home itself. To fix roof damage or rotted ceiling or flooring is a expensive repair project.
A flooded basement is not fun at all. Damaged gutters are a common cause for basement flooding. Rainwater will flow from the gutter then pool at the foundation of a house right above where the basement is. Over time, the foundation will begin to wear down and rainwater that collects above the basement will begin to leak into the basement. Oftentimes this will lead to mold or mildew growing and will peel paint, flooring and other furniture or decorations in the basement.
Pools of rain that damage or flood basements often also damage the foundation of a house. A house with a damaged foundation is not safe to live in. Homeowners also find that to repair a home’s foundation is a costly expense and necessary for any chance of selling a house over time. Home’s with shaky foundations almost certainly will not pass a home inspection.
Pests and rodents love sitting water. If rainwater stays in gutters for a long time, the gutter will become home to rats, mosquitos, termites and other bugs near your house. The issue will get worse if the insects and rodents discover a way inside of your house through the gutter system. Routine gutter cleaning will eliminate any chances for a pest infestation to happen.
Your home’s appearance might not be the number one reason for cleaning gutters, but it’s the most obvious. Organic debris that clogs the gutters oftentimes can be seen from neighbors, especially debris that collects on the driveway. The overflowing water will also stain the siding of a house and deteriorate the appearance of roofing shingles. In the end, a house with unclean gutters will appear worn down from the exterior.
One obvious issue that might occur from buildup and overflow of rain is damage to the gutters themselves. Debris and materials will eventually corrode the aluminum most gutters are made of. Destroyed gutters can result in the same type of home damage as unclean gutters and will have to be replaced faster than cared for gutters.
