A “How to Guide” for Cleaning Gutters in Asheville, NC

Most homes in the Asheville, Hendersonville, Flat Rock and WNC area, need to have their gutters and downspouts cleaned regularly due to the surrounding woodlands. When you look around, you may see homes with small trees and ferns growing in gutters because the homeowner hasn’t maintained the gutters. Over time, organic muck builds up. This is an invitation to trouble. You risk damage to roofs, fascia and siding, and over exposure to mosquitoes that cause disease and mold and mildew, that can aggravate allergies and sinuses. When gutters get stuffed up, water can overflow, causing exterior damage and interior mold and mildew. Gutter guards, covers or helmets can protect gutters in Western North Carolina from clogging and overflowing.

If you happen to live in a 1 story house, you may be able to clean your own gutters. A ladder, preferably an articulating type can be set up so it doesn’t rest directly on the gutters. If you don’t have one, it’s not a show stopper, just be forewarned that stuffed, overflowing gutters can cause damage. Gutter cleaning isn’t for everyone. If you need help, call the friendly people at Gutter Helmet of Asheville, NC at 828.681.5555 they’ll take care of it for you.

To tackle this job yourself, you’ll need gloves, a bucket or plastic bags, and a hose. Gutters are fraught with sharp edges and are no place for unprotected hands.

Secure and hook the hose to the gutter so it slides along the gutter as you go. Keep in mind that gutters are not designed to take any appreciable weight, so don’t let your bucket get too full and don’t lean on gutters either.

Use your hands or a scoop to clean out the muck and leaves and dump into your bucket. When full, toss the muck in the compost. Once the gutter is clean, use the hose to remove remaining debris. Look for leaks or holes that need repair. A gutter professional can spot leaks and needed repairs easily.

Gutter Helmets, Covers and Guards – Do I Need them to Keep Leaves Out?

Many people choose Gutter Helmets to protect their home from the damage that stuffed, clogged and dirty gutters can cause. As a maintenance feature, gutter helmets make cleaning your gutters a thing of the past. Gutter Helmet keeps leaves and other debris from clogging gutters and downspouts, prevents costly damage to your home’s roof, siding and landscape and prevents mold, mildew, disease and outbreaks of mosquitoes that breed in wet clogged, gutters.

Mosquitoes can make life miserable. Many back yard outings have been ruined by the constant annoyance and irritation caused by their bites. Also, some species can transmit serious diseases. Mosquitoes lay eggs on the surface of water in rain barrels, bird baths, cisterns and roof gutters so be sure to clean debris from rain gutters and unclog obstructed downspouts. Clogged rain gutters are one of the most overlooked breeding sites for mosquitoes around homes.   For more information on how to keep leaves out and avoid stuffed gutters for good, call the experts at Gutter Helmet of WNC at 828-681-5555.
