Guess what? Your gutters play a major role in not only your home’s curb appeal, but also the condition of your roof. Yet, countless homeowners fail to properly clean and maintain their gutters.
The Result: Damage to your landscape, foliage, walls, foundation, basement, attic, and yes, even your roof!
Preventative Gutter Maintenance Tips from Atlantic Remodeling
Remove Roof Debris: Remove leaves, twigs, branches, and other debris from your roof. If you fail to do this, these materials will eventually find their way into your gutters.
Remove Gutter Debris: Now it is time to focus on your gutters. Remove leaves, twigs, branches, and other debris from your gutters.
Wait for Dry Weather: You should only clean your gutters when they are dry. This is because it is easier to clean out your gutters when they are dry and it is safer to work around your roof in dry weather.
Gutter Cleaning Tools: A narrow stiff-bristled brush can be used to clean out your gutters.
Wash Away Remaining Debris: Once you have removed larger debris, use a garden hose to wash away the rest.
Test Your Gutters: Use your garden hose to test your gutters once they are free of debris. Are they doing their job? Are there any signs of leaks?

Your roof is the most important part of your home, so properly maintaining your roof should be one of your top priorities as a homeowner. And when it comes to roof maintenance, it always pays off to be proactive instead of reactive.
“According to data gathered in a 15-year alliance between Firestone Building Products and ProLogis, a global provider of distribution facilities, with a proactive maintenance schedule in place, the average life-cycle cost is 14 cents per square foot. The average reactive maintenance life-cycle costs are 25 cents per square foot. a roofing system with proactive maintenance can have an average roof life of 21 years compared to 13 years with a reactive maintenance program, depending on the roofing system and building type.”
So what are you waiting for? Get to work!

Residents of the Mid-Atlantic area, especially Marylanders, know just how inconsistent the weather can be in this part of the country. In 2009 and 2010, Maryland suffered two of its worst winters ever. Then, in 2011, we had one of the mildest winters in recent history.
Maryland is one of the few states in the U.S. that experiences violent thunderstorms, the harshest winters, the hottest summers, and everything in between. And because of this, Maryland homeowners…and their roofs…need to be ready for anything!
These extreme swings in weather can do a lot of damage to your Maryland roof – ripping away roof shingles, causing roof leaks, and leaving your roof in disrepair.
If this happens, you have two choices…
1. Leave your roof the way it is.
2. Call the roofing experts at Atlantic Remodeling!
