Gutters aren’t entirely element-proof. They eventually suffer the effects of continued exposure to wind, rain, and snow, but you can take action to protect them from some of the greener aspects of mother nature. Especially in the fall, leaves from deciduous trees wreak havoc on unprotected gutters, leading to aggregation of leaf matter and debris. As time progresses and the debris within gutters builds up, clogs will form, creating a major hazard to the health of your gutters. Leaf guards and regular cleanings are the best ways to keep your gutters safe!
