Everything You Need to Know About Gutter Cleaning

As a San Ramon area homeowner, you might have some questions about gutter cleaning and maintenance. When you move into a home, it’s easy to get caught up in taking care of the immediate interior and exterior needs of your house, and sometime, gutter cleaning can seem like an afterthought. The truth, however, is that gutter cleaning can save you a lot of time and money in repairs down the line.

Gutters are intended to collect rainwater from your roof and carry it away from your home and its foundation. If your gutters become clogged, an overflow of water can lead to foundation problems, ruined landscaping, and even basement mold. Clogged gutters can also lead to roofing issues as shingles become damaged by excess water. In addition, clogged gutters can actually attract pests and cause even more problems. Since foundation repair can cost thousands and thousands of dollars, and mold remediation isn’t cheap either, it’s best to go ahead and ensure that your gutters are clear yearround.

With that said, many San Ramon homeowners wonder how often they should actually be cleaning their gutters. It’s recommended that you clear your gutters at least twice per year, preferably in the spring and fall, although you might need to clear your gutters more frequently depending upon your specific situation.

For instance, if you live in a wooded area where trees are overshadowing your roof, then there’s a good chance that your gutters will need to be cleaned more frequently. When you have your gutters cleaned, it’s important that the structure of your gutters is assessed. For instance, it’s important to make sure there are no eroded portions of your gutters and that the brackets are all securely in place.
