Why Gutter Cleaning is Important

#1 Corrosion:

Not having your gutters cleaned means that the build up of leaves and dirt can hold moisture after a rain. This then causes your gutters to rust. The rust then begins to weaken your gutters causing cracks and holes, allowing water to leak through during and after it has rained.

#2 Storm Damage: 

Storm damage is predominantly caused by water overflowing your gutters. This happens when there is a buildup of debris, dirt and other matter inside your gutter system, the build up causes the down pipes to be blocked and does not allow for what to flow into storm drains or water tanks. With the water not being able to flow to the downpipes the water level rises and takes the path of least resistance, sometimes that means into your roof causing gyprock ceiling damage, rotting in roof timbers if not detected and many other complications. This can all be avoided by having your gutters cleaned at a minimum of once a year by our gutter cleaning Joondalup Team.

#3 Fire Damage:

Fire damage is a huge risk to any home, family or business, protecting your number one asset as well as your family’s livelihood or employees is a great responsibility. Reducing the fire risk by cleaning your gutters from leaves and other debris helps to protect your home or building from ember attacks if there is a nearby fire. When an ember lands in a house gutter that has not been cleaned the ember can smolder and then spark a fire on your roof whereas with a clean gutter system the ember will land in your gutters and have less chance of igniting, avoiding the roof fire and losing your home or office.
