                     What Will Happen If You 
Don’t Clean Your Gutter?
A gutter is an important part of your roofing system 
which protects your house from water damages. It 
collects dust, dead leaves, and roof aggregates during 
the summer season and can cause water leakage. 
Have a look at the next slides to know what happens if 
you don't clean your gutters.
Basement Leaks
In clogged gutter water cannot move properly and it 
can damage the foundation of a building by allowing 
water in the base. If water collects in the basement 
then it may cause mold, smells, water damage, etc. 
Foundation Damage
If gutters are not cleaned and water overflow from the 
gutters, it will fall along the foundation of the 
building. Water can soften the soil around the 
foundation which causes cracks. 
Insect Infestation
An uncleaned gutter can cause debris and mold. It also 
causes the gathering of insects and worms. These 
insects can easily reach your home during a weather 
change and can cause infection and illness. 
Professional San Juan Island Roof Contractor says 
it is necessary to clean your gutter in the spring and 
autumn at least twice a year. Want to know more
