This is as bad for your building as it is for your health.

What Is Guttering?

Guttering is a small and thin trench that is used in buildings to collect and deviate runoff water from buildings. It is a part of the roofing protection and maintenance system. When it rains, the water is collected to the little trench due to the slope of the roof. This thin trench then redirects the rain water away from the base of the roof, ensuring the foundation of the roof is dry and safe. The redirected water falls through a downspout to the ground instead, and can be stored in containment tools, and later thrown away or used for other purposes such as watering plants. Gutters come in a variety of types such as sectional and seamless, different styles such as K-style, half round and box aluminium, and different materials such as  aluminium, copper, zink and vinyl.

Sectional Gutters

This type of gutter is used in different sections of the building. They are mostly used in residential houses, and buildings that have lots of corners around the roof structure. Sectional gutters might be prone to leaks, collect debris and ripple over time if left unchecked.

Seamless Gutters

This type of gutter is a continuous piece of gutter that covers long and linear roof structures. Seamless gutters allow a better flow of the water and they don’t ripple over time. However, depending on the structure of the building, in most cases, there is a combination of both sectional and seamless types when installing gutters.

K-Style Gutters

These are rain gutters that have a flat bottom part and a curve edge. These seamless K-style gutters are very popular in residential homes, due to their ability to blend well with the line of the roof.

Half-Round Gutters

As the name suggests, these are rain gutters that resemble a circle cut in half. These gutters have a symmetrical U-shape and can be used in every type of building that is designed to be less angular. Installing half-round gutters have to be used accordingly and require high skill, since they are not flat at the bottom. 

Box Aluminium Gutters

These are gutters used for drainage purposes and clearing debris through a downpipe. Their purpose is to ensure free flow of the water and direction it away from the roof. As the name suggests, box aluminium gutters resemble a box made out of aluminium. They have a rectangular shape and are concealed from outside. Box aluminium gutters are mostly used in commercial buildings due to their ability to store the most amount of water compared to other gutters.

Aluminium

Aluminium gutters are the most popular type of gutters due to their light weight. Aluminium is one of the best materials for manufacturing rain gutters. They are environment friendly and do not get corroded.

Copper

Copper gutters are extremely durable. They are resistant to corrosion and can withstand harsh weather conditions and extreme variations of temperature. 

Zinc

Zinc gutters are durable and have a great lifespan. These gutters form a protective carbonate layer with the time that gives the gutter anti-corrosive properties. Zinc gutters are expensive but require low maintenance.

Vinyl

Vinyl gutters are made out of PVC material. They are cheap and a great alternative to other kinds of gutter. These gutters are very popular because they are cheap and easy to install.

Importance of Gutter Cleaning and Maintenance

With the arrival of autumn and the beautiful scenery, so comes the need to clean and maintain the gutter in every house. Gutter cleaning is the process of eliminating all the dirt, debris and falling leaves from your house gutters and downspouts. Debris and leaves prevent the rainwater from flowing freely down your gutter and downspout. Constantly cleaning and maintaining your gutter means that all the water from your roof can flow freely to the ground. This helps prevent any leaks, mold and structural damages in your building. When leaves, dirt and debris stack inside your gutter system, they prevent the system from working efficiently. However, when cleaned and maintained properly, gutters have an important part in your building and provide the following benefits:

Preventing Roof Damage

Clean gutters redirect the water from the roof to the ground through downspouts. However, when dirt, debris and leaves get trapped inside the gutters, they prevent the water from flowing freely into the ground. Excess water in your roof can cause your roof to rot, weaken its structure and even seep through inside your house.

Protect Exterior Walls

When the water gets stuck inside the gutters, they do immense damage to the exterior walls. The debris in the stuck gutter makes a gap over the time and it stops working. This causes the exterior walls to get mold and grow algae on the surface. The paint and stucco will begin to peel and chip, making your building lose its aesthetic appeal.

Prevents Foundation Damages

When gutters get stuck, the excess water seeps through the walls and can reach the foundation of the building. With excessive water on the ground, the soil expands and then dries up, causing the foundation of the building to contract. This process of continuous contraction damages the foundation and weakens it. When excess water saturates the ground, it can also cause uneven flooring, cracks in foundation and bulged window structures. Keeping gutters clean will prevent any damage to the foundation of your building.

Prevent Insect Infestation

It is not new that animals and insects love saturated surfaces. Debris and leaves inside the gutters provide a favorable place for these insects to build nests. They can later reach your roof and infest the inside of your building. Keeping the gutters free and clean prevents animal and insect infestation and keeps your house clean.

Extends the Lifespan of Your Rainwater Drainage

When debris and leaves get stuck inside the gutters, they make a gap over the time and it causes your rainwater drainage system to stop working. Mold and algae grown around the gutters may cause them to rot and weaken. Keeping the gutters free and clean will ultimately increase the lifespan of your rainwater drainage system.

Our Gutter Cleaning and Maintenance Services

The leading cause of water damage in the UK is blocked drainage systems. Accumulated dirt, debris and leaves in the gutters prevents the rainwater from freely flowing to the ground, resulting in immense damage to your property such as structural damage of the foundation, leaking roof, mold growth and pest infestation. Constant gutter cleaning and maintenance is very important to ensure your drainage system is properly working.
