Essential Gutter Maintenance Tips

The gutters around your roof are responsible for diverting water away from your home. If anything’s wrong with your gutters, you risk damage to your home’s siding, foundation, or basement.

This local news segment discusses the importance of proper gutter maintenance. To make sure your gutters divert water properly, you should clean them every spring and fall. If you see water spilling over the edge of your gutters, it could mean that your downspouts are clogged or your gutters are pitched incorrectly. If clearing the clog doesn’t solve the problem, you should consider repairing or replacing the gutters.
