3 Common Culprits Behind Gutter Congestion

Your gutters help keep your property safe from water damage. To ensure they continue performing properly, you need to make sure they are well maintained. Lack of maintenance leads to gutter congestion, which can lead to a host of issues. Today, Done-Right Roofing & Sheet Metal Ltd., a premier residential and commercial roofer, discusses the common causes of gutter congestion.

1. Leaves and Debris. Congestion is a year-round gutter problem, but it’s more common during fall. Trees on your property shed their leaves, which can pile up inside your gutters. This creates blockages that can compromise your gutters’ ability to channel precipitation away from your home. To prevent this problem, keep the trees around your home trimmed

2. Bird’s Nests. Our avian friends love nesting in your gutters. You’ll need to discourage them from doing so to avoid congestion. One way to do this is to install a high-quality gutter protection system. Top gutter and roof replacement company, Done-Right Roofing & Sheet Metal Ltd. can help you with this. We offer exceptional gutter guards that will protect your system effectively and keep it clog-free. Just schedule a consultation with us and we’ll be more than happy to discuss our available options.

3. Sludge. When decaying leaves, pine needles and animal nests are left unchecked inside gutters, they break down into a black, slimy material. This will stick to the system, preventing it from draining runoff properly. Keep your gutters clean and clog-free to avoid this problem.
