Gutter Cleaning and Gutter Guards
Alright folks let’s talk about gutters. Let’s look inside the realm of gutters today. Yes, those supposedly metal or plastic passageways that hang along the edge of our rooftops. The ones we usually ignore until we notice the water pouring down from the roof, turning our houses into little waterfalls? Yes, those!
I know, this is not the most glamorous topic to tackle, but it’s vital. Climbing up the ladder with a bucket and cleaning tools is surely not the ideal ‘fun’ weekend, but believe me, ignoring those gutters can be a recipe for disaster.
Clogged gutters can lead to water leakage damaging the foundation of your house, mold growth, pest infestation and it can even damage your landscaping. Surely, not the kind of events we want to happen. What do we need do to ensure our gutters are properly working?
Here are some points to consider:

Mark your calendar and set up a reminder a week, or a day before so you can prepare the necessary tools you will be needing. Surely, there will be gutter cleaning services around your area if you prefer now doing it on your own.
