However, if you choose to wait until you notice a problem, your home can suffer much more serious damage down the line. Cleaning your gutters and downspouts t can prevent water damage and nesting of unwanted vermin.
When gutters and downspouts are cleaned and properly functioning, they will direct water away from the structure of your home. Clogged gutters will cause water to collect around your foundation, which in turn, will likely cause leakage in your basement.
