Your gutters may not get much attention, but they have an important job: directing rainwater away from your home. When gutters become clogged, loose, or misaligned, water may not drain properly, potentially leading to problems around your roof, siding, landscaping, and foundation.

A gutter maintenance program helps keep the gutter system doing its job. But professional maintenance can involve more than simply removing leaves. A comprehensive program can include cleaning, inspections, minor repairs, and other services designed to keep your gutters working properly throughout the year.

For homeowners looking for a convenient way to care for their gutter system, Gutter On offers a professional maintenance program that takes much of the work off your plate.

Regular Gutter Cleaning

One of the most important parts of a gutter maintenance program is keeping debris out. Leaves, twigs, dirt, and other materials can accumulate inside gutters and eventually restrict water flow.

Gutter On’s maintenance service includes professional gutter cleaning to remove this buildup. Keeping the gutters clear allows rainwater to move toward the downspouts instead of pooling inside the system.

Professional cleaning also means you don’t have to spend your time climbing a ladder and trying to reach difficult areas of your gutter system.

Roof Leaf Blowing

A gutter maintenance program doesn’t have to stop at the gutters themselves. Gutter On’s program also includes blowing leaves and debris from the roof.

Removing loose debris from the roof can help prevent it from eventually washing or falling into the gutters. This can be particularly helpful during seasons when leaves and other debris accumulate quickly.

By addressing both the roof and gutters, professional maintenance can help reduce the amount of material entering the drainage system.

Rinsing Gutters to Remove Buildup

After larger debris has been removed, gutters may still have dirt or smaller particles left behind. That’s why Gutter On also rinses gutters as part of its maintenance service.

Rinsing helps clear away remaining buildup and allows technicians to check how water moves through the system. This additional step can help identify potential drainage issues that may not be obvious when simply looking at the gutters.

Minor Gutter Repairs

A gutter maintenance program can also provide an opportunity to address small problems before they become bigger ones. Gutter On’s maintenance program includes certain minor repairs, such as re-caulking, adjusting loose screws, and tightening or adjusting loose hangers.

These details may seem small, but secure hardware and properly sealed connections can help keep the gutter system stable and functioning as intended.

Realigning Sagging Gutters

Gutters need to have the proper alignment so water can flow toward the downspouts. Over time, sections may begin to sag or shift out of position.

Gutter On’s maintenance program includes realigning sagging gutters when necessary. Correcting these issues helps promote proper drainage and prevents water from sitting in sections where it shouldn’t.

Checking Downspouts and Water Flow

Gutters can only work effectively if water has somewhere to go. Downspouts carry water away from the gutter system and help direct it away from the home.

As part of its maintenance program, Gutter On checks downspouts, secures them when needed, and verifies that they’re functioning properly. We also check water flow to help identify potential drainage problems.

These checks can help catch issues that might otherwise go unnoticed until heavy rain exposes them.

Convenient Scheduled Maintenance

One of the biggest advantages of a professional gutter maintenance program is convenience. Instead of remembering to schedule gutter cleaning whenever you notice a problem, you can have routine service handled by professionals.

Gutter On’s maintenance program includes two free visits per year, while additional visits are available for a service-call charge. Regular visits can make it easier to keep your gutter system maintained without adding another seasonal chore to your to-do list.

Who Can Sign Up for Gutter On’s Maintenance Program?

Gutter On offers our $14.99-per-month maintenance program for new complete gutter systems installed by the company, including gutters and gutter guards. Existing gutter systems may also qualify, with pricing based on the size of the system and starting at $14.99 per month.

For existing systems, Gutter On first needs to complete any necessary cleaning and repairs and install its gutter guards. Those services are charged separately from the maintenance program.

It’s also important to note that major damage isn’t included as part of routine maintenance, so significant repairs may require additional service.
