Say Goodbye to Clogs: How Gutter Guards Can Benefit Your Home
What Are The Benefits of Gutter Guards?
Syracuse,NY is well known for its up and down weather. With yearly snow, rain, wind, and more, your gutters are put under a lot of pressure to perform. For many homeowners, that means that every year – usually multiple times a year – you have to get on a ladder and clean out your gutters, or risk issues that include:
- Wood Damage
- Ice Dams
- Foundation Damage and More
Cleaning out your gutters regularly is important. But it’s also difficult, time consuming, and easy to forget. That is why many homeowners in Syracuse consider gutter guard installation.
What Are Gutter Guards / Gutter Covers?
Gutter guards or Gutter Covers are protective barriers that fit into nearly any type of roof to prevent leaves, twigs, and other contaminants from entering and getting stuck inside of the gutter. These guards still allow water to drain freely into the gutter, but help ensure debris continues to roll off of your roof.
Benefits of Gutter Guards
The primary benefit of gutter guards is to prevent any unnecessary maintenance. Climbing a ladder to clean the gutters can be difficult and dangerous. While gutter guards do benefit from regular cleaning, they do not need to be cleaned as often – usually only once a year or every other year.
Gutter guards also provide additional benefits, including:
- Extending the lifespan of your gutter.
- Reducing the chances of freezing in winter.
- Preventing blockages during heavy rain.
They may also help prevent pest infestations, as pests can sometimes be attracted to moist areas. Some experts also believe that gutter guards may help reduce the risk of fire damage.
Overall, gutter guards are a beneficial addition to any property, and are a great addition for any homeowner that wants to reduce their maintenance and protect their property. For more information about gutter guards in Syracuse, please call
