If your gutters get clogged up and you don’t clean them, your roof will eventually pay the price! You may think that your gutters will get damaged or that flooding will occur but the water and ice build up will actually damage your roof.

Pest Watchout:
Nothing more annoying than hearing squirrels in your attic. Keep an eye out inside or around your home and see if there is any sign of birds, termites or more in your roof. If you find anything, give your local animal control a call and then a roofer to find out where they are coming in from. If animals are coming in, that means that water most likely is too!
