Are you looking for ways to prepare your home for the harsh Michigan winter? Heavy snowfall, ice freeze/thaw cycles, and hail impact take their toll on your exterior, leaving your roofing and gutter systems vulnerable to damage. But there are easy steps you can take to resist wear to your home.
By maintaining your gutters before winter strikes, you can defend your home from storm damage while extending the life of your exterior. Proper gutter maintenance minimizes your risk of damage so you can enjoy easier property maintenance during those cold winter months. Here’s how you can protect your property by scheduling gutter services this fall.
The Importance of Fall Gutter Cleaning in MI
Your gutters act as the first line of defense against water damage, ice dams, and other common forms of winter wear. When your gutters become clogged, snow and water have nowhere to go, turning into solid ice dams. These dams continue to block your gutters and force water to back up onto your roofing system, siding, and foundation.
Maintaining your gutters creates a clear path for water and snowfall so you don’t have to worry about winter damage. A thorough gutter cleaning will include:
- Gutter and Downspout Inspections
- Leaf, Twig, and Debris Removal
- Gutter System Flushing
- Minor Gutter Repairs
- Optional Leaf Guard Installations
Install Advanced Leaf and Debris Protection
One of the most reliable ways you can defend your exterior is by installing a layer of leaf protection. A gutter leaf guard can be installed along with your gutter system to block out leaves, debris, and small items. Since your blockages can quickly create leaks and wear, leaf guards keep your gutter clear of preventable damage. Using products made with fine stainless-steel mesh, low-profile appearances, and custom-fitted manufacturing can all enhance the durability of your gutter system.
