Another drawback of these minor scratches is that they can attract and trap in larger amounts of grime and dirt, causing exponential damage to the surface of the windows. This dirt and debris can be extremely difficult to clean off, requiring powerful chemicals which in turn can be harmful to the glass if applied in incorrect dilutions.
Other substances that can affect glass include construction chemicals, minerals in hard water and acid rain, all of which can reduce the strength of the glass and have a negative impact on its insulating properties. As a result, the windows are unable to maintain an adequate level of heating or cooling inside the building, resulting in higher utility bills.
Another undesired effect of heavy dirt and grime on windows is that the darker the surface of the class, the more light that is blocked out. This can make your house or building feel colder during winter, which can lead to negative moods and can even make your houseplants suffer. And, as above, a colder house or building means your HVAC system has to generate more heat, again resulting in higher utility bills.
Regular window cleaning also means that the areas surrounding your windows, such as planters, shutters, window frames, etc. are also protected as they are freshened up, preventing the build up of dirt, debris, grime, cobwebs, etc..

The importance of regular gutter cleaning
|
Coping with gutter maintenance can be a challenge, but it's important to ensure good gutter function and prevent damage. Gutters provide protection for your property and its contents, and they can also affect the appearance and value of your home. Regular gutter cleaning is essential to maintaining water flow and avoiding costly repair work later on.
Gutter maintenance should be done at least twice per year by an expert cleaner such as Miami Window Cleaning & Gutter Cleaning using safe ladder techniques and high-pressure water or power washing equipment. Power washing should only be done when the leaves are gone from the gutters because wet leaves stuck in guttering can make them block up more quickly. Once gutter cleaning is complete, a full inspection should be performed to ensure the gutter system is channeling rainwater away from the foundation of your home. With regular and proper maintenance, you can prolong the life of your gutters by preventing blockage and rusting. |

A clean gutter system will:
- Contribute to increased property value. According to Remodeling magazine's annual Cost vs. Value Report, gutters are consistently in the top five exterior home features when it comes to resale value.
- Prevent water damage to your home. Water leaking into your foundation or downspouts creates an environment where wood rot can flourish. Wood rot weakens structures and floors, shortens roof life span and decreases insulation value.
- Prevent mold and mildew growth. Mold spores exist everywhere around us, so it's important to keep them from growing on your gutter surface.
- Prevent structural damage and liability issues associated with blocked gules and downspouts. A gutter that isn't performing properly can lead to gutter failure resulting in costly repairs or even injury on the ground below if the guttering tip breaks off and falls.

Regular gutter cleaning is usually done by homeowners with a sturdy ladder, gloves, bucket and hose pipe, but often too much water pressure is used, which can cause damage such as leaks or blockages further downstream of where you are working. Most importantly, power washing should only be done when guttering is completely free of water including fallen leaves inside guttering. If guttering is wet leaves which collect in guttering can make them block up more quickly.
You may want to hire a gutter cleaning service especially if your gutters are too high, steep or if you don't like heights (or using ladders). You may also seek out a gutter cleaning service during the fall and winter when leaves aren't falling, though this isn't foolproof as there are some types of evergreen trees that lose their leaves during these seasons so it's always best to check with an expert on whether falling leaves are blocking guttering before hiring a gutter cleaning company. |
Gutters should be cleaned at least twice per year for optimum gutter function and to prevent damage. Some gutter cleaners recommend cleaning in late fall and again in the early spring before mud season. Exterior gutter cleaning should be complemented with cleaning regular interior piping (e.g. kitchen, bathtub) to remove build-up inside guttering traps that can lead to blockage, especially during heavy rains.
If you're not sure whether your gutters are blocked or if its time for gutter cleaning - check them at least once per year by going up a ladder (with someone holding it steady) and looking into the top of your gutters. If there is any debris blocking water flow, this needs to be removed immediately or it will eventually lead to blockage and damage to your gutters.
Gutters are an important part of your home - they protect your home from water damage that can occur when guttering is blocked or isn't channeling rainwater away from the foundation of your home. This can lead to rusting, wood rot, mold growth, gutter failure spilling water everywhere, increased energy bills because of poor insulation in areas with wet floors, or damaged overall guttering, so clean them regularly to keep your gutters protected.
