At Pure Water Window Cleaning we don’t just offer our window cleaning service locally in Haslington, Crewe, oh no! We offer the residents of Haslington our 5* rated residential and commercial gutter cleaning service too.
For most of us, if we want to clean out our own gutters, then we’ll need a very tall set of ladders, and a head for heights. We also need to find the time and energy from somewhere to complete the task. Without the right equipment this can be at best, a time-consuming chore, and at worst, a really dangerous one! Enter Haslington Gutter Cleaning services! – We have invested in the latest gutter cleaning equipment that allows us to clean your gutters, so you don’t have to. And all from the safety of the ground. Our Gutter cleaning service is entirely ladder-less.
We use a 3,300w triple motor industrial wet and dry gutter vacuum that is powerful enough to suck out all the debris that gathers, congeals and causes blockages in our gutters.
Our gutters are the unsung hero’s of our roofing structure. They carry out the vital role of directing rainwater safely away from our homes.
But for our gutters to do their job effectively, they require a little help from us.
They need to be regularly cleared of all the organic and man-made waste that can so quickly build up in and become compacted in our gutters, preventing that all-important free flow of rainwater away from our homes. So whatever material our gutters are made out of; cast iron; pressed steel; plastic, it is essential that these are regularly checked and cleared. But don’t worry, we’re here to do this for you.
The usual culprits that block our gutters include moss, leaves, plant debris, twigs, bird nests and fragments of brick or roof tiles. All of these, if not removed, can in time cause blockages that lead to property damage and costly repairs.
Here are just some of the obvious ones;
If your gutters are blocked, rainwater will pool in your gutters and overflow, pooling on the roof itself if it has nowhere else to go. This pooling of water can weaken roof tiles allowing the water to seep through. Once water has found it’s way through your roof, it can cause all manner of issues within your home including rotting fascia boards, water damage to walls, windows, ceilings and insulation producing damp and mould spores.
You might assume that as our gutters run along the roofline, so all problems due to blocked gutters will only occur at the roofline. That kind of makes sense doesn’t it? But actually, blocked overflowing gutters can cause structural damage to the foundation of our homes. Water will always head south if it can, leading it directly to our homes foundations. Protecting the structural integrity of our homes is an important reason to keep those gutters clear. Imagine how costly it would be to repair structural damage to our home – a lot more that than a gutter cleaning service.
Blocked gutters can lead to broken gutters. Guttering isn’t designed to hold too much weight. When it rains, all the leaves and moss in our gutters absorb that water and become heavier than normal. These sodden heavy lumps of debris then start to block water flowing along the gutters, so the rainwater level in the gutters starts to rise, weighing the guttering down even more. This can lead to guttering pulling away from its fixings or breaking / cracking under the pressure. Damaged gutters aren’t too difficult to fix, but if left unchecked (maybe because you haven’t noticed the damage), the escaping water could lead to some of the water damage we mentioned earlier.
We’ve just discussed some of the damage overflowing / blocked gutters can cause to our homes, but for many of us it’s this last problem I wanted to mention that is all the incentive we need to run to the phone and get that gutter cleaning service booked without delay!!
Gutters that are nice and full with damp leaves and moss make the most alluring home and ideal breeding ground for all manner of creepy crawlies. These little guys can easily make their way in to our homes. Carpenter ants, spiders, insects of all kinds and event rodents can very quickly make our home their home.
There are many more potential problems looming if we neglect cleaning out our gutters, but you get the idea.
Well the goal is to keep the gutters clear of any debris that inhibits rainwater running freely away from your home. So every home will be different depending on its location and whether your home is surrounded by over hanging trees or not, for example. All homes need their gutters clearing, but some do need it more regularly than others.
Also, the weather can play a part. A heavy storm may make clearing out your gutters more urgent than usual.
Twice a year is a great rule of thumb, but if that’s not doable or not necessary for you, then try to make sure you clear your gutters at least once a year. It’s one of those jobs we can easily forget to book in until we notice the consequences of not dong so, so it helps to link cleaning the gutters with some other chore that you have to do, such as paying an insurance premium, or resetting your clock to Daylight Saving Time.
You can ask us to book your Haslington gutter cleaning service on an annual or bi-annual basis, or whatever works for you, so this important job doesn’t get over looked.
