Prevent water damage and mold growth
Leaves, sticks, and debris can become a problem for your rain gutters. Rain gutters typically allow the removal of water away from your home or building. In this instance, the blockage within the rain gutter allowed water to overflow and deposit near the front door of the unit. If left untended, the backup within the gutter would allow the water to impact the structure and possibly cause water damage inside the home. Water damage and mold growth inside your home can be prevented by regular maintenance of the rain gutters during this El Nino rainy season.
Do your best to observe the signs of a failing rain gutter and prevent water damage:
- Loose or detached down spouts
- Bent or broken sections of the main gutter
- Excessive debris (including leaves and dirt)
- Improper slope and grading of the gutters
- Overflowing water
