OUT OF SIGHT OUT OF MIND !
How often do we look up at our roof or gutters?
Why are gutters important?
They are designed to make sure rain water from your roof is carried away safely to downpipes and eventually to the drains. Imagine what would happen the next time it rains if you didn’t have any gutters or badly fitted ones..
All the rain water from your roof would pour straight off it and run down the exterior walls of your home eventually causing water damage.
If your gutters are not working as they should or have been damaged or broken, they’re not going to do the job they were intended to do and that’s to allow free flow of rain water straight to the drains.
You should never ignore your damaged ,overflowing gutters and you certainly shouldn’t overlook any issues that may arise.
If left untreated other issues ,far worse than the original gutter problem you were faced with will eventually appear..
Look how quick a water butt fills with rain water, imagine if your guttering was not doing its job correctly and taking all the water to the drains ,potentially all this water would be going down your exterior brick work and windows ,causing water damage and eventually causing damp issues on your interior walls.
Eventually finding its way into small cracks, crevices and any other opening on your home.
Over time the dampness will almost definitely cause mould issues. If you have your gutters maintained regular you can then avoid any of the issues caused by damaged, blocked gutters.
Dont abandon your gutters.
Out of sight is out of mind.
Thanks for stressing the urgency for constant gutter maintenance.
It’s amazing how much damage a little rainfall could cause to your gutters and overall home-space.
A lot of people often do look up at their roof or gutters without thinking of how to get the gutter cleared. Gutters can be a problem if care isn’t taken. Thanks for this post.
Without gutters your whole house would be damp and horrible. They should not be overlooked.
Gutters should always be in the best shape. Failure to do that can lead to disaster.
Annual maintenance to gutters shouldn’t be that difficult to manage. I think most people ignore their gutters because of laziness.
The write-up does a good job of showing how important gutters are. Great job and do keep it up!
I am one of those that rarely look at their gutters. I will definitely change this.
Just like any other part of the house, gutters are equally important and should be accorded the attention they deserve. It really does help a lot.
The damage from water can be so severe. Gutters are indeed very important.
Gutters may be out of sight but they should never be out of mind. That could spell disaster.
Failing to take care of gutters can lead to even worse problems in future. This may also be very costly.
Gutters help keep your home safe from water damage. That makes them very vital.
Sincerely, I dont have the time to check either the roof or gutter. Thanks for helping with gutter cleaning companies.
Over time the dampness of the gutter will almost definitely cause mould issues. Better I properly taken care of so as to add more value to the home
I understand the value of gutters, that’s why I have them maintained regularly.
The human being has the ability to perceive and anticipate things, a capacity that favors us to keep our gutters up to date.
Our gutter can rust over time, which makes it necessary to touch up the paint to protect the aluminum from them.
