250.718.5078 kelowna gutter cleaning Spring-cleaning does not have to be restricted to indoor chores. If you own your property or are renting a home, it is a good idea to inspect the outside of your house and perform the annual maintenance chores that will keep it in good shape. One of the most important tasks facing you is cleaning your gutters. Don’t let fall leaves and wind-blown debris pile up in your gutters, because when the spring rains hit, there could be a backup that might cause excessive dripping, especially after winter thaws. This drainage can trickle under the roof and become a leak in your ceiling, or make a path down the side of the exterior and leach into your basement to cause damage there. It may be hard to believe, but a handful of clogged leaves or twigs or an out-of-place bird’s nest can create major problems requiring expensive repairs.

250.718.5078 cleaning gutters When fall approaches, it’s time to clean the gutters on your home. Many homeowners do this project each year to properly maintain their homes. What you may not realize is that most gutter systems should be cleaned 3-4 times a year with each season. You may be wondering why should I clean out my gutters so often? The reason is each season trees go through various cycles that can clog up your gutters. In spring, most trees drop seedlings and dead twigs. Spring is also the best time to inspect your gutters for any damages that may have occurred during the winter snow. In summer, trees lose leaves from heavy storms and high winds. In early fall, you should remove leaves that have fallen early to keep your gutters flowing freely. At the end of fall or early winter, you want to make sure everything has been properly cleared from the gutter system to help prevent ice dams or buildup of ice in your gutters. The extra weight of frozen water in your gutters can easily cause them to pull away from the fascia and in many cases, fall off the house. Improper gutter maintenance will lead to clogged or damaged gutters and can cause thousands of dollars in damage to your homes foundation, exterior trim and basements.

gutter cleaning kelowna Q: Why do gutters need to be tightened?

A: Over time, gutter nails tend to work themselves out of the fascia board (the wood between the gutter and the house). As the gutters become loose they pull away from the house and water from the roof may fall behind the gutters instead of into them. In extreme cases, a loose gutter can actually fall from the weight of rainwater or snow and ice. It’s important to periodically have the gutter nails tightened in order to prevent these problems.

Q: My gutters have screens on them, do they need to be cleaned and can you clean them?

A: It is still a good idea to have the gutters cleaned once every year, as debris can still collect underneath them. Also it’s not a bad idea to have someone on your roof to spot possible problems. I clean gutters with screens by lifting out one end of the screen, blowing all the debris to that end with my leaf blower and removing it there. I then replace the screen on the end where I removed it.

Q: There is water coming from behind my gutters, can this be fixed?

A: This is most likely a symptom of a loose gutter, in which case it is easily fixed by tightening the gutter nails – included in the basic service. Another possibility is that your downspout is clogged and the back of the gutter is one place the water can escape. Having the gutters and downspouts cleaned easily solves this. In some special cases (specifically if you have a rotten fascia board or the first shingle course is not overhanging the gutter enough), the problem is not a loose gutter, so tightening will not solve it.

Q: Do you recommend gutter protection systems or screens?

A: At best, gutter protection systems, including screens, help to reduce the maintenance but do not eliminate it.

Most homes are better served by a routine maintenance schedule. If you gutters are getting clogged regularly then there is probably debris landing on your roof also. Recurring maintenance will ultimately take better care of your roof and gutters.

250-718-5078 moss removal kelowna The growth is often more pronounced on the north-facing portions of roofs since they tend to stay wetter longer. Large trees that produce lots of shade on a roof can also foster the growth of moss and algae as evidenced by my own west-facing roof. It used to get covered with moss and algae. Morning dew and rainfall tend to evaporate slower on these surfaces because of the minimal amount of direct sunlight these roof surfaces receive.

Moss is of great concern to me as it absolutely can shorten the life span of untreated wood and asphalt roofing materials. The thick moss growth with its shallow root system keeps the roofing materials damp for extended periods of time and this moisture promotes wood rot and can and does erode the asphalt in shingles.
