Even if they don’t look like the most important thing on the exterior of your home, your gutters are responsible for protecting your home 24/7 – especially when the rain and snow starts to come down here in West Michigan!

The front line of defense against your home are your gutters to collect, channel, and direct water flow away from your home and your foundation.

However, to perform as intended, gutters need to be clear of dirt, debris, leaves, and standing water.

If your gutters become compromised (and every West Michigan homeowner learns that every gutter system fails eventually) you’re not going to be dealing with gutters that get flooded.

You’re probably going to be dealing with a roof that starts to leak, walls that start to get waterlogged, and a foundation that begins to be eroded away – all of which can lead to expensive fixes in the future.

With the KGuard gutter system available here at KGuard of West Michigan you won’t have to worry about those problems any longer!

Though some gutter problems are pretty easy to diagnose from the ground (you’ll notice obvious damage or destruction to gutters that had seen better days), a lot of gutter problems are difficult to diagnose until you jump on a ladder and start digging around to see why your gutters aren’t working the way they should be.

Each year, KGuard of West Michigan helps friends, neighbors, and community members throughout the West Michigan area with gutter repair – most often in the spring and early summer.

This is when you’re going to start to see obvious signs of your gutters not working the way they should, especially when the rain starts to come down, the snow starts to melt, and many of the leaves or branches that fell into your gutters during the fall back things up in a big way.

There isn’t a homeowner on the planet that loves the idea of tackling gutter cleaning projects every spring and every fall, but ignoring this essential service won’t just create a lot of headache and a lot of hassle – it can also cause expensive damage to your home!

Clogged gutters aren’t just unpleasant to look at (or unpleasant to smell, especially in the springtime).

Clogged gutters also lead to significant water damage problems – particularly when these gutters start to backup and overflow, start to soak your roof eaves, your important roof systems, and even start to leak down your walls and begin eroding away your foundation.

Gutter cleaning isn’t something that can be put off year after year without eventually paying the piper in a big way.
