Eavestrough Cleaning

The eavestrough is easy to miss when you’re cleaning your house, but you can forget about it once – right up until it drops a reminder on you, and this is usually a reminder you won’t be able to miss or forget!

Throughout Autumn especially, nearby trees shed leaves and branches; in the Spring, and you also might have birds that choose your roof for their nests. These events may result in your eavestroughs getting clogged. If this goes unnoticed, eventually, it will overflow and send water down the walls of your home – and potentially inside, especially if you have a basement.

Even if your house is not surrounded by trees there might be a roof shingles particle accumulating inside your gutter creating muddy heavy substance which blocks the water to flow towards the downspout. As a future result your gutters may start to separate from the roof line and could be damaged causing expensive fixes. 

If there is still water stuck in the passage when Winter hits, water will freeze within the eavestrough, and the substantial weight of the ice poses a real danger of breaking entire passages away from the roof. Otherwise, the weight could create a broken seam between an eavestrough and a downspout that may become a further source of trouble.

Those are only a few of the reasons why regular eavestrough cleaning is an absolute must for property maintenance. We cannot stress enough the importance of a bi-yearly eavestrough cleaning and a watchful eye on their condition.

While there’s a lot of horrific stuff that can go wrong here, there is good news – it can ALL be avoided by simply keeping the eavestrough clear of debris and in good general shape. And EZ Eavestrough cleaning will take care of this for you!
