Well, it’s winter here in the Northwest. Officially, that is, even though it can seem like winter all year around depending on which day you stick your head out the window (or which hour. Or minute.) There was even a bit of snow out there today. I knew it was cold.
Are your gutters clean? I’m sure you know all the nasty stuff that can happen when they’re not: flooded basement, water damaged walls and ceiling, etc. etc. Depending on what kinds of trees you have, the gutter guard systems may work for you, or they may turn into a real headache, year after year. I’ve seen many that have 3 inches of moss growing underneath the caps, and if you’re just using removable mesh, remember you’ll be paying the gutter guy extra to remove it every couple years to get the stuff that inevitably gets through. Or maybe you’ll get lucky. Do your research.
Happy winter!
