With the memory of the rainiest winter on record still fresh, it’s easy to forget the importance of gutter maintenance. But as spring unfolds and the springtime sunshine finally arrives, weed-clogged gutters can quickly become a homeowner’s headache.
Remember, your home is likely your biggest investment. By keeping your gutters clear, you’re safeguarding that investment. Clogged gutters overflowing during heavy rain can lead to a cascade of problems, from damp patches and fascia board rot, even foundation issues. These repairs often require working at height, which can be dangerous to DIY and expensive to get a good builder in.
The good news is that a little prevention goes a long way. Taking the time to get your gutters cleared now, before spring foliage explodes, can save you a lot of hassle and money down the line. Think of it this way: spending around £100 once a year on gutter clearing is a small price to pay for peace of mind knowing your home is protected from the elements.
So don’t put it off any longer and get ready to enjoy a worry-free summer – with gutters that flow freely. Put your post code in the box and check your local price. At GutterPRO, if we turn up and your gutters are empty, we don’t charge for the call out.
