However, if you are looking to get in there and clean them yourself, here are Valley Roofing & Exteriors’s Top 3 Gutter Cleaning Solutions to help you out.
Before you begin to clean your gutters, put safety first with a little preparation. First things first: Is your ladder functioning properly? Do you have work gloves to protect your hands? Do you have a bucket in which to put the debris you find? Are you working with a buddy to ensure your safety from the ground? Is the light right to see what you need to see? Are trees trimmed back from your home to give you easy access to the perimeter of your roof? Take precautions to operate securely and stay safe so you can clean your gutters and then sit back and enjoy your work!
cleaning out the debris, you minimize water dams that run off and affect your foundation.
When you are planning for your home’s winter readiness, check your roof from the inside looking for cracks, gaps, and joints. Seal all gaps and check for air and water leakage. When your insulation is thin, bringing it up to the latest code can make a tremendous difference in the heating and cooling efficiency of your home. The less heat emitted through the attic to the snow and ice on the roof, the less your chances of developing ice dams that can cause real damage to your roof.
Once your attic is air insulated, then improving ventilation makes a difference. The goal is to keep the air properly flowing through the home and minimizing inefficiency and heat loss through the roof. Think of it like walking in cold weather without the right hat to keep your body heat regulated. Installing a waterproof membrane is typically done when installing a new roof and can be a costly solution. Once you are at the point where you roof needs a waterproof membrane, you likely need a new roof. The waterproof layer minimizes leaks and maximizes the life of your roof.
The first step is knocking off excess snow to get to the ice dam. Whenever you are doing any work on your roof, be sure to take extensive safety precautions. This is especially critical in suboptimal weather conditions. Chiseling away the ice dam also requires attentive care, so as not to do any further damage to the roof. Once the ice dam is removed, salt or other chemical melting agents may be applied to halt the problem until the weather clears enough to solve the root problem.
For a stronger product and an elegant aesthetic, seamless gutters perform for years to come.
When it’s time to install seamless gutters for your home, the first few questions we tend to receive are:
The kind of estimate you get for a seamless gutter cost will vary from contractor to contractor. You need to know what is included in the estimate and how the contractor arrived at that number. The base cost of the gutter may not include the work, or may only include part of the job. On-site estimates give you an opportunity to ask about the installation process, warranties, and guarantees of work.
When we come to the job site for an estimate, we follow the “Rule of 4P’s.”
Every job is priced on a case-by-case basis. Your seamless gutter cost is calculated from exactly what you need and what it’ll take to complete the install properly.
Your budget factors into our estimate for seamless gutters. Our base rates for each component give you options for your job, which we present in our estimate. You also have choices in the color options for seamless gutters designed to complement the overall aesthetic of your home. Our estimates empower you to find a seamless gutter solution and a contractor that is the perfect fit.
Harken back to a bygone era with the warmth of half round gutters. To restore a home or building to its original aesthetic means caring for every detail. Valley Roofing & Exteriors brings modern installation to a traditional product to give you greater product reliability in the look you want. Preserve the style of your home with added function and longevity in your modern half-round gutters.
In the past, half round gutters were installed with seams to bind the pieces together. The many seams proved the weakest part of the gutter systems and were often the cause for replacing a gutter system. Today we have the equipment to do the job seamlessly, which dramatically increases the strength of your half round gutter system. The modern day solution looks the same, but performs much better than the original. The more seams you have, the more chance of something going wrong. Now you only have seams at the corners, which eliminates a gutter being pieced together and reduces your chance of leaks.
Half round gutters are offered in a large selection of colors to keep the traditional look of the home. Add to the aesthetic of your home with the right color of your half round gutter system. Valley Roofing & Exteriors has style experts to help you find the perfect fit.
Gutters protect your home from leaks, provide pathways for precipitation and eliminate drips. The gutters that run the perimeter of your home serve multiple purposes, all designed for your comfort and protection. But what protects them? Proper installation goes a long way to keep snow and ice from causing sagging and structural damage. Regular cleaning keeps your gutters functioning at optimal water flow. However, cleaning out your gutters is likely not the most pleasant task and may not get done often enough. The solution is simple – restrict the debris from getting into the gutters in the first place with Leaf Relief Gutter Guards.
Getting up on your roof isn’t something you typically look forward to doing. Heights aside, the gunk that you find in your gutters is on its way to fine compost at best, and may contain live snakes or rodents at worst. The best way to eliminate the potential of a nasty surprise is to keep the debris and wildlife out to begin with. Leaf Relief Gutter Guards provide a barrier that lets water in and keeps everything else out. As leaves and tree debris falls on your gutters protected with gutter guards, they don’t have a chance to nest down in the gutter.
No clog, no-overflow due to internal debris is the Leaf Relief promise. With proper installation, your gutter guards are manufacturer warrantied for 10 years. Valley Roofing & Exteriors also guarantees workmanship for 5 years, to add to your peace of mind. Not only do you get to give up the dirty task of cleaning your gutters, but they function well and protect your home for years to come.
