Servicing the southeastern Wisconsin & northeastern Illinois areas.
Prevent Water Damage
Foundation Protection: When gutters are clogged or damaged, rainwater can overflow and pool around your home’s foundation. This excess water can lead to soil erosion and foundation cracks, which can be costly to repair.
Basement and Crawl Space Safety: If water isn’t directed away properly, it can seep into basements or crawl spaces, leading to water damage and creating a conducive environment for mold growth. This can pose health risks and necessitate expensive remediation efforts.
Exterior Protection: Water overflowing from gutters can damage siding, paint, and other exterior materials. By keeping gutters clear, you can maintain the integrity and appearance of your home’s exterior.
Avoid Pest Infestations:
Breeding Grounds: Standing water in clogged gutters is an ideal breeding ground for mosquitoes, which can be a nuisance and a health hazard. Regular maintenance helps eliminate these habitats.
Attraction for Rodents and Birds: Clogged gutters can attract pests like rodents and birds looking for nesting sites. By keeping gutters clean, you can help deter these unwanted guests from invading your home.
Preventing Debris Buildup: Regular gutter cleaning prevents organic debris, like leaves and twigs, from accumulating and decomposing, which further attracts pests.
Extend Roof Lifespan
Prevent Roof Damage: When gutters are blocked, water can back up onto the roof, leading to leaks and water damage. This can compromise roofing materials and shorten their lifespan.
Ice Dams in Winter: In colder climates, clogged gutters can lead to ice dams, where water freezes and creates blockages. This can cause water to back up under shingles, leading to leaks and significant roof damage.
Lower Repair Costs: By regularly maintaining gutters, you can prevent issues that would require costly roof repairs or replacements, ultimately saving you money in the long run.
