Gutter Cleaning

Gutter cleaning is a term we are familiar with in Peachtree City. Most Georgia residences have gutters unlike some areas in the north. The reason why a lot of northern United States homes do not have gutters is because of ice and snow. Without the proper thawing equipment installed gutters can cause the roof to hold too much snow and ice, which is bad for the home and can lead to roof collapse. Luckily we that need gutter cleaning in Peachtree City GA do not have this issue!

Gutters are installed on most homes here in the south and that is why most gutter cleaning is needed in Peachtree City, Tyrone, Fayetteville, Sharpsburg, Senoia and Newnan. Most homeowners know they should clean their gutters, but unfortunately it takes some people a long time to call someone out to preform the gutter cleaning, usually because they can see debris in the gutter. The process for gutter accumulation is a long term process that involves rot and decomposed leaves and other debris.

The Importance of Clean Gutters

When a home first has gutters installed the gutter company arrives at the job and makes the gutters on site by measuring the length of the roof in which they wish to place gutters. They take these measurements and use specialized equipment to make the gutters on the ground, tailor-made to the home. They then install the gutter using many technicians and ladders. These technicians put a slight slant on the gutters so that the rain flows to the downspout.

Downspouts are placed in areas of the gutters where the most rain will accumulate and need a place to go. Downspouts transport the rain from the gutter to the ground. At the new stage of the home the gutters preform as they should. As time progresses things get into the gutters and cause problems with the operational flow of the gutters.

When leaves fall, they get stuck in the gutter, as is for pine straw. Left uncleaned, the leaves and pine straw begin to decompose. When more leaves fall on top of the decomposing material, the process continues. when everything has decomposed in the gutter it makes for great planting soil. All it takes is one seed from a tree to be dropped into the gutter for the growing process to occur.

When trees are growing out of the gutter is when most homeowners call for gutter cleaning services. This is not the time as the gutter has been full for some time now and the water flow issue has already taken its toll. Soffits, trim board and window sills are all damaged by full gutters.

Without a proper way to drain, due to the decomposed soil, the gutter fills with water every time it rains and overflows onto the house and ground below. This can also lead to premature rotting of the house where it meets the ground.

Gutters and downspouts are made to carry water away from the home, and when full they cannot do that. When they cannot flow water away from the home the gutters need cleaning.

It is best for the homeowner to call for gutter cleaning services before great expenses to repair wood rot are needed.
