Gutter Cleaning questions, answered by experts

Failing to clean leaves out of gutters can lead to blockages, preventing proper water flow. This can cause gutters to overflow, leading to water pooling around your home’s foundation and increasing the risk of basement flooding or structural damage. Stagnant water in clogged gutters can attract pests like mosquitoes and rodents or cause the gutters to sag under the weight of debris. Regular cleaning ensures proper drainage and prevents these costly and inconvenient issues.

Gutters alone do not prevent ice dams, although proper drainage can help reduce the chance of them forming. It’s also a common myth that gutters cause ice dams, but even houses without gutters are susceptible to ice dams. Keeping your gutters clear and in good condition can help water drain more efficiently, which may help keep ice dams from forming.

If you’re not interested in digging up your yard, but you still need to direct water away from your house, another option is to extend your downspouts further out into the yard. Two methods to do this are:

  • Adding a splashguard. This is the simplest method. You can purchase a splashguard at your local hardware store and place it under your downspout. This will act as a funnel to direct water away from your house.

  • Add downspout extension at the end. You can also add an additional downspout to the end of the “elbow” as a way to extend the water further out into your yard. Some hardware stores sell downspouts with a flexible extension that you can maneuver around your yard.

The above alternatives are great options if your gutters are above a slab foundation that you wouldn’t want to dig up. One downside to these methods is if your yard slopes back upwards to your home, then the water won’t actually flow away. In which case, burying your downspouts if the best option to avoid flooding and water damage to your home.

Gutter guards do not cause ice dams, but they can make it more difficult for melting snow to drain by blocking smaller chunks of ice that might otherwise drain away in uncovered gutters. If you find ice dams forming on top of your gutter guards, you may want to remove them for the winter to aid in faster drainage.

Avoiding cleaning your gutters can damage not only your gutters and downspouts but also your roof and exterior of your home. Debris buildup in gutters can result in moisture not properly draining. Without a place to go, water and debris can start to eat away at your surrounding roof shingles, attic, insulation, and walls.
