Cleaning the gutters
Cleaning roof gutters is an important task that ensures the sustainability of the roof and the building, as well as preventing many problems. Here are some reasons why roof gutters need to be cleaned regularly:
Prevents water leakage: If roof gutters are blocked with dirt, leaves or other objects, this can prevent natural water from flowing down. This can cause water to leak onto the roof surface, which in turn can cause roof damage and water to enter the building.
Maintain the structure of gutters
Blocked gutters can cause water to accumulate on the surface of the gutters, especially during rain. This weight of water can create too much stress on the gutter structure, which can lead to cracks or other structural problems.
Prevents fungal and lichen growth
If gutters are blocked and water accumulates on the roof surface, this contributes to the build-up of moisture, which can lead to the growth of fungi, algae and lichens in the gutters and on the roof. This can damage the building facade, roof and gutter materials and cause aesthetic problems.
Ensure sustainable operation of the drainage system
Regular drain cleaning helps maintain the functionality of the drain system and prevents it from collapsing or becoming blocked. This ensures that water can flow freely from the gutters, preventing potential damage to the building.
