Wow! Your house looks amazing. What did you do?

When you’re renovating your home, the exterior makes the first impression on guests. Amping up your curb appeal isn’t just about adding attractive flower pots to the front porch, it’s about giving your entire home a face lift. When you’re renovating, subtlety matters, and those little details like tidy gutters help your home make a great first impression. You’ll be pleased with the reduction in cleaning time as well. Considering new gutters? Here’s why you should add your name to Harry Helmet’s gutter sweepstakes.

Why Get New Gutters This Spring?

Does your home drainage system need an upgrade? If you’re experiencing erosion issues or foundation leaks, you may be able to trace these back to your clogged gutters. Water can cascade off gutters onto the ground, causing puddles or erosion, and if enough water pools by your home foundation it can cause small leaks and foundation shifting that grows larger over time. Gutters that don’t work well are also a cause of ice dams and roof leaks. Water that backs up onto your roof or into loose roofing can cause a lot of problems both inside and outside your home. Your gutter system is an integral part of your home drainage system. Warped, sagging, and clogged gutters can lead to problems.

Did you know that your old, clogged gutters can be dangerous? Standing on a ladder when your gutters are clogged with leaves can lead to falls. If your current gutters are giving you a backache or you just don’t want to stand on a ladder any more, you have another excellent reason to get a new gutter system that allows you to avoid cleaning altogether. With integrated gutter covers, you don’t need to stand on a ladder and clean any more, since leaves and other debris wash off the roof while water moves into the gutters.

Gutters also add a tidy beauty to your home. A house with a lovely paint job, but warped, sagging gutters, just doesn’t look nice. Over time, leaves, sticks, and nests can accumulate in your gutters, making it appear that your home needs maintenance. Show that you love and invest in your home by adding new gutters. A home with new gutters looks neat, especially when it has gutter covers that help avoid leaf accumulation.
