When considering the kinds of home improvements you need to carry out, you probably think more about improvements to add to the beauty of your home rather than improvements that actually help you take care of your house. Guttering is one very important aspect that you really need to think about in order to keep your home in a good state.

The point of guttering is very simple; it channels rain (or other substances) away from the roof of your house. Guttering stops a build-up of water on your roof, which eventually would otherwise cause the water to overflow and damage your property – defiantly not an outcome you want.

It is very important that you keep the guttering of your home clean and ensure that debris is not allowed to build-up within them. If you don’t clean your guttering regularly, rain will not be able to drain away effectively.

A common way of keeping your guttering clean is to install a guard onto it. A guard is most often simply a mesh frame that covers the gutter and stops debris from filling and blocking it. However, the problem with guards is that they, themselves, can become blocked over time. An additional problem with guards is that some can sometimes become detached (especially in high winds) and can end up blown from your roof and into your neighbour’s property.

Guttering can be made from many different materials. Steel is a more traditional material, although aluminium and plastic are becoming more popular these days, as they are substantially more lightweight and cheap to buy.
