Maintenance Tips

Quick advice from our team to help you protect your home between service visits.

1

Clean gutters twice a year

Spring and fall cleanings prevent clogs, overflow, and foundation damage. Kentuckiana's heavy leaf season makes fall especially important.

2

Check downspout extensions

Make sure water is directed at least 4–6 feet away from your foundation. Short or missing extensions are a leading cause of basement moisture.

3

Inspect after heavy storms

High winds and ice can pull gutters away from fascia. A quick visual check after major weather events can catch small problems before they become expensive repairs.

4

Look for standing water or sagging

Gutters should slope slightly toward downspouts. If you notice pooling water or visible sag, the hangers may need adjustment.

5

Keep screen room frames clean

Wipe down aluminum frames with mild soap and water each season. Check screen mesh for tears or loose edges and address them before pests find a way in.

6

Watch for rust or staining on fascia

Dark streaks below gutters often signal overflow from clogs or improper slope. Catching it early prevents rot and costly fascia replacement.
