One of the last things people consider when
maintaining their house or office are the gutters and down pipes. Yes, there they are where they're supposed to be, all's fine! However, not keeping the gutters clean could lead to some ugly, time consuming and expensive problems.
Nothing looks
worse than a gutter with weeds growing out of it due to lack of cleaning. Not only does it look bad, but it is damaging the gutter by not letting the water run off. The blockage, combined with the weight of the now wet debris, causes the gutter to settle or drop slightly, which prevents the water from following the previous angle of the gutter toward the down pipe. This could lead to rusting out of the gutter (if it is metal) which means expensive refit of
gutters or settling of the gutter which may cause a crack in the seam (where two pieces of gutter are joined). Another problem is that the water may overflow the gutter, either under the eaves and down the exterior wall, leaving unsightly tracks along the eaves and down the house wall or, worse still, over flowing into the ceiling cavity under the roof.
This could lead to damage of insulation, creation of mold and bacteria - which could lead to the house beginning to smell, rotting and damaged ceiling plaster, the risk of shorting out the light fittings or ceiling wiring, and damage to house contents if there is a heavy downpour and the water comes in down the internal walls onto bookcases or anything else against the walls, and damage to carpets and underlays. We have seen examples where the timber supporting the roof has started to rot because gutter maintenance had not been carried out for a number of years.
