Just like a water filter, gutter guards should be regularly maintained and cleaned to remove buildup and check for deficiencies.
While larger leaves and twigs won't enter your gutter system, fine silt and smaller debris can still accumulate and form sludge, which can slow water flow. Bigger leaves and sticks can also snag on the guard's surface, depending on the guard material.
Their efficiency also depends on a number of factors, such as:
💦 material used for the gutter guard
💦 gutter shape and type
💦 incorrect installation
Gutter checks are a regular stand-alone service we offer, or can also be included in your next roof clean.
