Clogged gutters might be a second thought until they cause serious damage. Keeping your gutters clean is essential for protecting your home from water damage, foundation issues, and even pest infestations.
When leaves, dirt, and debris build up in your gutters, water can’t flow properly. Instead, it overflows, spilling down your walls and pooling around your foundation. Over time, this can lead to stains, mould, cracks, and eventually costly repairs. Blocked gutters can also attract rodents looking for shelter.
Regular gutter cleaning — ideally two or three times a year — helps your drainage system work efficiently and extends the life of your home. It also helps prevent ice dams in the winter, which can cause serious leaks.
While it is possible to clean gutters yourself, getting on a ladder and working at height comes with serious risks. A professional gutter cleaning service ensures your system is fully cleared, safely and thoroughly, using the proper tools and techniques.
At Cornwall Window Cleaners, we use a high-tech, high-reach gutter vacuum system to safely and effectively remove debris without the need for ladders or mess. Our method is not only safer, especially for taller buildings, but it also causes less wear and tear than traditional scraping, helping protect your gutter system from unnecessary damage.
Book your professional clean today and keep your gutters flowing freely — the smart, safe way.
