The Volunteer State receives over 50 inches of rainfall every year. This can lead to crawlspace and basement moisture and flooding in homes with poor rainwater management systems. That’s why keeping your gutters clear of any obstruction should top the list of your regular maintenance chores.
Your gutters protect your home from moisture-related damage, but what protects your gutters and downspouts from their own problems? Let our experts on rain gutter guards at Gutter Helmet® of Cookeville show you the best way to keep your gutters in excellent shape.
Clogging Issues
Leaves, twigs and other debris shed by nearby trees are familiar problems in Tennessee. These things often find their way inside the main troughs and cause clogging in your gutters. During the rainy season, clogged gutters can cause water to back up onto your roof or drench your siding, where it can rot wooden beams and rafters, stain siding panels or shift the soil around your home’s foundation. In colder months, poor flow-handling can cause ice to form inside the gutters, leading to bigger problems.
The best way to keep your gutters clean is to install Gutter Helmet, the best rain gutter guards available today. Gutter Helmet is specially designed to prevent clogs.
Snow and Hail
Gutter Helmet also works well with Helmet Heat®, a heated gutter cover that reduces the formation of ice within the gutters in the winter. Secured to your home with strong brackets, Gutter Helmet allows your gutters to withstand up to 80 pounds of extra weight, way above the 10-inch annual average of snowfall in Tennessee.
