Tips on Preparing Your Gutters for Winter Weather

​Do you know if your gutters are ready to survive harsh winter weather? Snow, ice, and wind can cause a lot of damage to your home, and without proper maintenance, your gutters can clog, crack, or even sag from their hinges. To ensure you have the right information needed to maintain your gutters through the winter, read on for some helpful tips.

​Clean Your Gutters

​Keeping your gutters clean and clog-free is not only important in the fall, but should be one of your top priorities in the winter too. When it snows, the added weight of the snow and ice could cause your gutters to detach and fall to the ground. In addition, the accumulation of leaves, dirt, and other debris can damage your gutters and lead to poor water flow. So, it’s important to hire a professional gutter cleaning service before the winter season rolls in.

​Inspect Downspouts for Leaks and Other Damage

​Leaking downspouts can cause water accumulation and potential damage to your home’s foundation. It is important to note that water from the roof should land at least eight feet away from the building. While leaks are commonly caused by cracks and failing joints, it is best for them to be handled by professionals.

​Install Gutter Guards

​The most significant advantage of installing gutter guards is that they keep leaves and debris out of your gutters. They are, however, particularly good at preventing ice buildup that leads to obstructions. By allowing only a small amount of moisture into your gutters, your guards will help you avoid harmful snow and ice blockages throughout the winter season.

​Check for Structural Damage

​Examine your fascia, siding, and foundation for signs of staining, rotting, and other related structural damages. If you believe that water damage has already occurred, it is important to determine the source of water flow and make repairs as needed.

​Consult With A Professional Gutter Company

​At Colorado Seamless Gutters, we are committed to providing the highest quality gutters. Whether you are looking to clean, repair, or install new gutters before winter begins, now is the time to schedule a free consultation. Call us today to learn more!
