At the start of the year, many homeowners overlook their gutters. However, as one of my recent customers learned, a blocked gutter can lead to costly damage.
Over the Christmas holidays, I received an urgent call from a customer needing immediate gutter cleaning. At first glance, her gutters looked fine. But when I inspected the downspout from the ground, I noticed a large tuft of grass blocking the flow.
Using my camera, I found that both the front and back gutters were clogged with moss and sludge. This buildup obstructs rainwater flow, which can lead to water damage, roof issues, and even structural problems.
Fortunately, I cleared the gutters with minimal mess, saving the customer from any further issues. If your gutters are overdue for cleaning, don’t wait for a problem to develop. Call Sharples Window Cleaning today to book your annual gutter clean and keep your home safe from water damage.
