Gutter cleaning is one way in which to protect your gutters from buildup but when looking for a way to keep obstruction from forming in the area, knowing the best means to protect your gutters is important.

Gutter Damming
Nests, much like any other form of accumulation in your gutters can cause a blockage, which can in turn not only keep your gutters from working as required but also can lead to damages in your roof as collected water has nowhere else to go and finds itself overflowing back into your roofing material. It can be obvious to see why this can cause issues within your gutter systems and your roof and displays why paying attention to these areas and providing protection is important. Gutter Cleaning Geelong brings you the care and expertise needed to address these issues effectively. 

Landing Spikes
A common way in which to protect your gutters from birds landing in the first place is through landing spikes being placed within your gutters. This doesn’t injure the birds but rather makes it inconvenient and uncomfortable for them to land in the first place. Typically made of shaped aluminum or plastics, this cost-effective and effective solution can be a great addition to homes or businesses that don’t generally have a lot of foliage affecting their gutters, as this option can provide issues under those circumstances due to creating their own means of blockage. 

Hardwire Cloth
If your property is in an area with trees around, or one that finds itself exposed to falling debris around the roof frequently, then looking into a hardwire cloth option can be the right choice to make. This thin, metallic cover allows air and water to flow through easily while also keeping a filtration cover over your gutters which can keep birds and larger debris away from the channel which can provide great results. Not only does this method work well but also provides you with a low-visibility installation which will keep your roof and property looking great while providing you with the results you need. 

Gutter Covers
For property’s that suffer from particularly resourceful birds and other issues, aluminum gutter covers can be a more heavy-duty installation that ends the issue once and for all. With a flat installation of aluminum over your gutters, you have a means to completely seal off the area with a difficult to navigate installation while still providing the desired result that you depend on your gutters for. This can be great for properties that are highly surrounded by bird population making them prime attraction for a large number of birds to target.
