Your gutters provide a very important function for your home. They allow rainwater to flow away from your roof to the ground, protecting your siding and foundation from costly water damage. The main issue homeowners have with gutters is routine maintenance. Many months can go by without ever thinking about whether or not your gutters are clogged and may need to be cleaned. One solution to keep your gutters free of leaves and debris Read Full Post
One of the most difficult and hated tasks for many homeowners is cleaning out the gutters. Every time there is rain, snow, wind or other weather event, your gutters fill with water, leaves, dirt, and other debris from your yard. When yard waste gets in your gutters, it prevents them from doing their job – allowing water to flow through them away from the exterior of your home and its foundation. Gutters help prevent water damage to your home and keeping them clean is a huge factor when it comes to their effectiveness. The longer you wait to clean them, the more difficult the job becomes.
Minnesota Leafless Gutters can help you with this dreaded home cleaning project. We can install gutter guards to cover your gutters and keep leaves and debris out, while letting only water through. That way, you do not have to climb up on the ladder and fish out all the gross stuff that has gotten inside. Read Full Post
When you hire a company to do work on your home, what do you look for? For many, the three most important factors are price, service and quality of work. The truth is, however, when you hire a company to be on your property performing a service that you cannot complete, the most important factor to consider may actually be trust. Can you trust the company to give you a fair price? Can you trust the customer to provide you with the service you deserve and do the job correctly? Unfortunately, you cannot always trust companies not to take advantage of you in at least one of those areas. This is exactly what has inspired us to stand out
Snow is just a part of life in Minnesota and the Upper Midwest. There is really nothing to do about it, just prepare. For most of the year, our team installs and repairs seamless gutter systems, but as winter approaches, we want to share another service that we offer. Ice dams are an issue in our area each and every winter and can cause serious roof damage to your home. In addition to seamless gutter design and installation, we also specialize in roofing repair, and ice dam prevention and removal in St Paul.
An ice dam can form when the snow and ice that falls melts and then refreezes on your roof. One potential cause for this is that your attic may be too warm. The warm air from your attic melts the ice and snow and then more snow and ice falls, outdoor temperatures drop Read Full Post
On average, the Minneapolis area gets approximately 32 inches of rain each year and more than 52 inches of snow. This translates into more than 110 days each year with precipitation. Of course, we try to avoid the rain and snow, staying inside during heavy precipitation, using umbrellas, rain jackets and snow gear to protect us from the elements. However, the exterior of our homes take a beating over time. Every single thunderstorm, snowstorm or summer rain event falls on our roof and hits the siding. Our homes are built to withstand this weather, and your roof, gutter system and siding work together Read Full Post
When the weather is warm and there are still months of long days and the promise of sweaty, outdoor activities in front of us, the last thing most people want to be thinking about is ice dams. Ice dams are a reality during the colder months, so shouldn’t we be able to enjoy the warmer weather months without having to think about the realities of a cold, dark return of winter? The short answer is ‘Yes.’ The warmth of spring, summer, and early fall does not need to be completely subverted by thoughts of winter, but it is possibly, and in some cases necessary, to plan ahead.
