Permanent gutter protection systems present several hazards to your property. While gutter guards effectively block large debris, they fail to prevent fine dirt and dust from infiltrating your gutter system. This accumulation of sludge gradually obstructs your gutters and downpipes over time.
Moreover, permanent gutter covers create a sheltered, nutrient-rich habitat for vermin and pests to breed. These creatures thrive on the roof sludge and debris, finding warmth in ceiling cavities to breed.
Additionally, the installation of permanent covers makes it exceedingly challenging for professional gutter cleaners to eliminate dirt and sludge buildup. Unfortunately, if such devices have been installed, cleaning the gutters becomes nearly impossible without cutting or removing these costly guards.
