We are getting closer to springtime here in Florida. If you’re invested in the long life of your home, then a gutter cleaning service should feel like a no-brainer. Here are just a handful of the ways it will protect your property:

1. Gutter cleaning prepares your home for any weather
   Clear gutters are essential during heavy spring rains. They provide the peace of mind that your home won’t have to grapple with flooding, water damage, or any issues in inclement weather
2. Gutter cleaning keeps water damage at arm’s length
   When gutters are clogged, water goes over the channel, which means that it seeps into your roofline, around your foundation, and even into your windows. This in turn triggers a whole host of other problems, from rot to landscape erosion
3. Gutter cleaning prevents mold and mildew (and other infestation, too)
   When standing water is allowed to settle, it provides an ideal habitat for mold and mildew to thrive. Don’t forget – mosquitoes and other insects love standing water, too.

With the help of your professional gutter cleaning experts at Styles Power Wash, your home will be ready for all of the wet spring days ahead. Schedule your seasonal cleaning, then leave the rest to us. We’ll ensure that your gutters are ready to do their job — and do it well!

Many customers tell us that they don’t know what to make of their gutters. It makes a lot of sense: They’re elevated above eye level, and their important function – protecting your home from water damage – often goes unseen.

So, while your gutters may not be at the top of your mind, it’s important to keep track of their cleaning schedule. This is the only way that you can ensure they will work smoothly  and reliably to protect your home.

We recommend scheduling a gutter cleaning service annually. If you have a lot of tree cover where leaves, twigs, and other debris will fall into your gutters, it’s a good idea to have your gutter cleaning professionals come bi-annually, or even seasonally.

An ongoing maintenance schedule makes it easy to stay on top of your gutters. But if you notice any of these signs, it’s time to schedule a gutter cleaning right away:

• Leaves and other debris are poking over the sides of your gutters
• When it’s raining, water flows over the walls of your gutters
• You’re seeing pools of water accumulate around your foundation after a storm
• You’re noticing mold or mildew growth around your gutters

With the professional help of Styles, your gutters will be ready for action – and your home will be ready to weather any storm!
