Minneapolis Gutter Cleaning Company Adds Vine Removal Service

Minneapolis, Minnesota based company Gutter Maids has announced that they have added a new kind of service. The company has stated that they are now providing vine removal service in Minneapolis. This is in addition to their primary service, which is cleaning gutters for homes. They point out that removing vines is essential because these can cause damage to the home because of trapped moisture, the insects that make the vines their home, and the roots and tendrils that can cause cracks in the masonry.

Mike Braun, the owner of the company, says: "Gutter Maids - Vine Removal Service will help you to tame those unruly vining plants such as wisteria and ivy that can often cause damage to your roof and home."

Braun says that while visually appealing, vines can cause massive damage to structures and roofs by allowing moisture to be trapped on the roof and sides of a home, which ultimately can lead to wood rotting problems as well as mildew and mold. He says, "Removing vines, if you have them on your home is essential. Not only do these otherwise attractive looking plants trap moisture, they can lead to any number of insect infestations, which can be very costly to remove."

Vines are often used as the home of a number of harmful insects, which can damage the home's wood trim and siding, including termites and various species of spiders, some of which could be dangerous. In addition, he says that vine type plants can cause cracks and holes in the foundations and sides of a home as they grow, which could require thousands of dollars to repair if and when damage occurs. He says that during the winter months when many consumers burn fires in their fireplaces or stoves, these same vines can pose a fire hazard. He recommends that vines around chimneys be trimmed now, before the colder weather arrives and before those stoves and fireplaces are lit.
