Gutters are long channels that sit along the lower edge of your roof. They’re designed to capture all the water that hits your roof when it rains or melts after a snow, ensuring that it travels safely to the ground. With all the damage standing water can do to your home, you certainly want to keep your gutters operating at peak efficiency.

It is important to clean your gutters on a regular basis to keep them free of debris. It’s recommended that your gutters are cleaned at least twice per year, preferably in the spring and in the fall.

Dirty gutters attract all kinds of pests and vermin. As the seasons turn, animals and pests are searching for warmth and happiness in a home, moving into your dirty gutter with little interference. Birds and bees have been known to successfully build nests and raise their young in gutters. Wasps, roaches and lots of microscopic organisms love the wet, rotting environment of decaying leaves and mold that develops in a dirty gutter. These pests can cause very expensive damage to your home and can cause uncleanliness.
When gutters are filled with debris, ice and snow, it can cause the buildup of extra weight which is a burden on the roof. If it rains the debris that has taken up residence in your gutter absorbs the water and the weight increases. If the weight increases the burden on the gutters increase. It can put so much stress on the gutters and the brackets that the integrity of the gutters will be compromised. This can lead to damage.
If gutters are overflowing because they are filled with debris, they can drain into landscaping and plants, causing them to die from overwatering.
If water collects around the foundation of your home it can be absorbed and freeze, creating a “heave” which leads to cracking. Once cracks appear in the foundation, even if a collapse is not about to happen, water will then enter the home through those cracks where it can cause mold growth and flooded basements.
Excess water from downspouts can collect on sidewalks or your driveway and in the winter can lead to icy surfaces which are extremely hazardous. Homeowners should also take steps to keep their gutters and downspouts clear to allow water to leave the roof unobstructed.
Your gutters will start to leak or overflow for a few reasons. It could be because of debris building up which cause the water collected inside to overflow, or loose caulking in the gutter joints.
