Top 4 Tips for Effective Gutter Maintenance

Effective gutter maintenance

Gutters are essential for controlling the flow of rainwater and protecting your roof, walls, foundation, and landscaping. A clogged gutter wouldn’t be as effective and could host lead to mold growth. Let us offer some tips on keeping your gutter maintenance effective.

  1. Install Gutter Guards to Minimize Debris — Having the right gutter covers in Greenville, SC, or the local area, can make a difference by reducing the required maintenance. Gutter Helmet is particularly effective in eliminating leaves, debris, and small animals. Nevertheless, you should check on other areas, such as joints, seals, gutter hangers and slope.
  2. Hire an Expert — Some homeowners prefer to clean the gutters themselves. Still, maintenance involves more than just cleaning. It calls for detailed inspection and looking out for failure points such as old sealant, rust spots, presence of granules, and missing gutter hangers. Many of these would require professional repair. It is advisable to save yourself a lot of effort and simply hire our professionals.
  3. Keep a Schedule — Don’t wait until something goes wrong before you call us. Your roofing in Greenville, SC, and the local area, requires periodic maintenance to keep it in good shape; your gutters are no different. Experts recommend gutter maintenance twice a year: once in the fall after the leaves are mostly down, and then another in the spring. If you have Gutter Helmet installed on your gutters, we can advise you on the maintenance schedule.
  4. Make Sure the Gutter Contractor is Licensed and Insured — Should you hire our gutter experts, do know that we carry liability insurance and workers’ compensation insurance or “worker’s comp”. The former covers any property damage, the latter covers any on-site injuries. Keep in mind that both protect your best interests.

I highly recommend Carolina Gutter Helmet in Greer S.C. They did an excellent job on my bath tub to shower project. It was 1 and a half day completion. Very professional and courteous staff .The tare out and install was expedient. They cleaned up and took away all that wad needed. Call them for a job that you need well done. I love my new shower.

We had a full size retractable awning replaced due to tropical storm Helene and another awning installed in its place within a couple of hours. Great job and I would highly recommend Carolina Gutter Helmet for any of your awning needs! Thank you again!

We ordered a Sunsetter Awning from Carolina Gutter Helmet. The sales person was knowledgeable about the awning and was very pleasant to deal with. The awning was installed 4 weeks later and it only took them 2-3 hours to finish. We received cookies in the mail a few weeks later thanking us for our business. The people at Carolina Gutter Helmet are experts at customer service. We are very pleased with their service and the awning.

I had a tub to walk in shower conversion. What they did was more than I expected. The installers were total professionals and they did a beautiful job. They walked me through everything and cleaned up before they left. Total satisfaction on my part.
