  • Why Gutter Cleaning?

    Gutter systems are designed to control the flow of water away from your home, preventing a list of problems. Here are the 5 most common issues that can occur due to clogged gutters.

  • Flooded Basements – The number one cause of water damage in basements is clogged gutters. When rainwater comes off your roof and has nowhere to go, it will find the path of least resistance. This is, usually, inside your soffits and siding all the way to the lowest point in the home, your basement.

    Cracked Foundations – When water is allowed to settle around your home’s foundation and freezes it causes a condition called frost-heave. This can cause severe cracks in foundation walls.

    Insect breeding ground – Free-standing water and debris-filled gutters are a paradise for several species of insects. Mosquitos, wood-destroying insects, wasps, and even termites can live inside your gutters and find their way into your home.

    Rotten Wood – The result of moisture being trapped and cut off from air circulating to dry out the wood fascia around the house can destroy your home. The rotted area will quickly worsen if the gutters are not cleaned.

Signs You Need Your Gutters Cleaned 

The most obvious sign you need gutter cleaning services is overflowing rainwater. You may also notice your gutters sagging, staining on your siding, and standing water around your home. If you don’t see any visible water flowing from the gutters during a storm, you may have a clogged gutter. It’s important to check your gutters for any clogs and debris on a regular basis.  

The Essential Need for Gutter Cleaning Services 

Window Genie of Reading advises staying ahead of any gutter issues with regular gutter cleaning. Our gutter cleaning services are cost-effective and help lower the risk of damage to your home. The job of your gutter system is to control water flow and carry the water away from your roof, foundation, and siding. When the gutters cannot effectively do their job, water may seep into your home or your foundation. Some of the most common problems residents face with clogged gutters include the following: 

  • Flooded basements – The leading cause of basement water damage is clogged gutters. Water coming from your rooftop after a storm that cannot get through the gutters will find another pathway. It typically makes its way into the soffits and siding and ends up in the basement. 
  • Cracked foundations – Settling water around the foundation of your home can freeze and cause frost heave. This leads to severe foundation cracks in your walls. 
  • Rotted wood – Rotted wood occurs when moisture is trapped in the wood fascia without any ventilation. If you don’t clean the gutters, the areas of rotten wood can worsen over time.  
  • Insect breeding ground – Freestanding water is a breeding ground for pests. Your gutters may attract wasps, wood-destroying insects, mosquitos, and flies. 

Tips for Maintaining Gutters  

We understand gutters are not something that is on the top of your to-do list. Most homeowners don’t have the experience or necessary professional equipment to adequately clean their gutters. You can help our professionals by taking steps to maintain your gutters in between professional cleaning services. Some of the best ways to maintain your gutter health include the following:  

  • Invest in a good garden hose to test the gutters after cleaning them. 
  • Take note of the areas of the gutter system that may clog. 
  • Avoid hanging anything from your gutters.  
  • Inspect your gutters for leaks, rust, holes, and corroded joints. 
  • Install gutter guards or covers to keep debris out of your gutters. 

How Often Do I Need Gutter Cleaning Services?  

The length of time between gutter cleanings depends on your gutter system and home. Most homeowners get gutter cleaning services twice a year. If your home is surrounded by thick foliage, we recommend cleaning your gutters more frequently.
