Got Trees? How to Keep Your Gutter Clog-Free

By September 15, 2015October 18th, 2023No Comments

It’s no secret that trees help the environment. They absorb greenhouse gases and clean the very air we breathe. Tree roots keep the soil in place, preventing run-off and erosion. They also help make the environment around your home cooler, not just by providing shade but also by releasing moisture into the air.

Aside from their significant environmental impact, trees can also make a huge difference in your home’s overall appearance. That’s because properties that have an abundance of trees often have great natural curb appeal.

Trees & Clogged Gutters

Although trees are generally a desirable feature in your home’s landscape, they can also pose a real problem if not maintained properly. Fall, for instance, is the season when leaves, twigs and broken branches can pile up. If your gutters are clogged by the debris, rainwater won’t be able to flow freely into them; instead, it could overflow and potentially cause flooding around your house. Clogged gutters can also cause water damage to your siding, exterior walls, windows, doors, soffit and fascia. Even your landscaping and your home’s foundation are not safe if rainwater is left unchecked.
