Roof & Gutter Cleaning Professionals, Memphis TN
Gutter and Roof Cleaning Can Extend the Life of Your Roof
A roof and its gutters have to constantly battle the elements, and this requires proper action and attention through gutter and roof cleaning at regular intervals. Doing so will ensure that your roof lasts for its full life without any need for its replacement, as well as ensures that your home remains dry as water is prevented from leaking into the home. The first thing we would do for cleaning the roof is to remove all the debris that often accumulates on a roof, typically after storms, especially if you have a lot of full-grown trees on your property or in areas surrounding it. Branches of trees break off during storms and when they fly up on your roof they can even damage shingles. Clearing this debris at regular intervals, even if there are no recent storms is an important step before you go the next required stage of washing the roof and giving it a neat and clean appearance. Gutters and downtakes are necessary to carry away rain and snowmelt from the roof. They must also be reasonably clear if they are to perform these functions. The debris and leaves and twigs and branches that happen to fly up to your roof will often find their way into the gutters, as they are the lowest part of the roof. This can be reduced by providing gutters with covers, but regardless, over time the debris will still eventually collect behind these covers and will require a cleaning. If the debris is not cleared, it will find its way into the downtakes which have a small and limited diameter, and probably end up with them getting choked during the next rainstorm. A choked gutter or downtake can result in the buildup of water, damage to the wooden fascia to which the gutters are attached, and probably lead to water seeping below shingles and finding its way into your home. |
