Must do Maintenance: Gutter Cleaning

12/04/2016

It’s officially autumn – while the beautiful turning leaves signify a move to colder weather, they also signal a need to schedule a not-so-pleasurable but essential maintenance task for your home: gutter cleaning.

Gutter cleaning and gutter maintenance are an important part of home ownership. Your gutters are the collection system, on the edge of your roof. They are designed to divert water that is running off your roof to downpipes. Unfortunately, your gutters also collect debris such as leaves, twigs, weeds and dirt. If too much debris collects in your gutters, there is nowhere for the water to go and this could potentially expose your home to damage.

Do not overlook the importance that clean gutters have on keeping your home water drainage system running smoothly and effectively. Water damage can be costly, often thousands of dollars. For OH&S reasons tenants cannot be requested to clean their own gutters out, as they are not qualified to work at height. This must be left to the professionals. Gutter cleaning is preventative maintenance on one of your most valuable assets – your home.

If you would like to schedule any maintenance on your investment property, including gutter cleaning, please contact your Tenancy Manager.
