Poor drainage is the leading contributor to soil moisture gains, and continued moisture can cause foundation problems. That's why it's important to ensure the rain that falls into your gutters will properly flow through downspouts and be released away from the house. Keeping your gutters free of leaves and debris and in good repair will prevent them from clogging and filling with water. Most gutters are made from galvanized steel, aluminum, or vinyl. However, if yours are sheet metal, they may rust when water pools in them, and the weight of sitting water can also cause any type of gutter to dislodge or bend.

For your gutters and downspouts to work effectively, they must be kept clear of debris, maintain watertight joints and slope properly. Regular maintenance is crucial, especially in fall and spring. All gutters, even those protected by a leaf-catching system, will need to be cleaned occasionally.

Cleaning, unclogging, and repairing gutters can be a dirty and sometimes dangerous job. Depending on where the gutters are located, some areas are virtually inaccessible, which is why it makes sense to hire a professional Chicago gutter cleaning contractor to help you keep your gutters clean and in good repair.
