If you are a homeowner, we are willing to bet that somewhere on your house there is an eavestrough. An eavestrough that always seems to need cleaning, even though it feels like you just cleaned it!

Gutter Depot is here to assure you, although eavestrough maintenance seems like another tireless chore, it is absolutely vital to the wellbeing of your home!

An eavestrough will collect the rainwater pouring down your roof and redirect it away from your home. However, standard eavestroughs also collect leaves, small branches and other dirt, causing them to block during rainstorms. If the eavestrough remains clogged, water damage can take place through leaks in the roof and flooding through the walls and foundation. It can even split the pipes!

To keep up with your eavestrough maintenance, we recommend a scheduled cleaning 2-3 times a year, preferably mid-Spring (May-June) and mid-Fall (October-November). Consider waiting until most of the leaves have fallen, but dont wait too long or you might get caught with an early snowfall!

If you are thinking of cleaning out your gutters, remember this important rule: ladder safety! When cleaning gutters it is a good idea to attach either a bucket to your ladder or a trash bag to collect the leaves and other debris from the gutters. Be prepared, cleaning out gutters can be a very messy job!

This is why Gutter Depot recommends LeafGuards patented system. It allows rain to travel down and around its rounded hood and into the eavestrough, while keeping leaves and dirt out!
