Just as residential streets commonly have a drainage system of gutters and storm sewers, residential roofs typically have a drainage system of gutters and downspouts. Municipalities need workers to gather and remove debris with street sweepers and utility trucks. Roof drainage troughs also need to be cleaned out two or more times each year. Professional service for roof gutter cleaning in Puyallup WA is available for homeowners who cannot or do not want to do this work.
Many people have seen part of a residential street become flooded due to a storm sewer being blocked with leaves and organic debris. A similar situation occurs when roof gutter cleaning in Puyallup WA has not been completed as needed.
The troughs fill with leaves, twigs, seeds and nuts. As rainwater flows down the roof and into the gutters, it washes all of that debris to the downspouts. Clogs develop on top of the spouts or within the pipe. Now, water runs over the gutters instead of down the spouts. That is exactly what homeowners are trying to avoid by having a roof drainage system.
After the rain stops, the water that has not traveled down the spouts and has not poured over the side sits in the troughs. This can cause the gutters to sag and even pull away from the house. Standing water attracts mosquitoes and other insects. Plants can even start growing in the fertile muck.
