to Gutter Cleaning Fairfax VA
Having dirty gutters is not merely an eyesore, but it might lead to costly repairs. Debris such as branches, leaves, asphalt roof shingle particles, roots, mud and toys can jam up your guttering and create a back up of rainwater. This may cause damage to your fascia boards, roof, siding, windows, patio areas, foundation and landscaping.
One of the main things we have learned throughout the years is that we’re only as good as our last job. We make every effort to provide top-notch work each time we head out to clean gutters. Our firm commitment is to make sure our clients get quality work at the best possible price. If, for some reason, we fail in this, we ensure our customers are still looked after.
When inspecting your gutters, you will want to find anything that is likely to cause a blockage or hindrance to water draining properly through the downspouts and away from your home. One of the most typical causes of gutter problems is that leaves or other debris have clogged the gutter system and prevent water from flowing as designed. When water pools in the gutter, it will not only run off the side, but it can also cause damage to the gutters themselves; wooden gutters will rot, and metal gutters can rust and corrode.
This is why gutter cleaning needs to be done frequently in order to prevent problems. If your home is a single level, this cleaning job can easily be done on a ladder, but a multi-story home is best left to the professional. While wearing heavy work gloves, you can scoop out any loose debris with your hands, and then use a hose to blast any remaining debris or to clean the downspout. This process is easiest when the debris is slightly damp, as any dried matter can become encrusted and difficult to move. If the downspout is clogged and the hose's water flow cannot penetrate the blockage, you can use a plumber's auger from the bottom of the spout to clear the clog first.
