Roofing Contractors Company in Windsor CT Advises Homeowners to Keep Their Gutters in Top Shape During Winter

Slavin Home Improvements, a roofing contractor offering services in Windsor, CT, has recently released a blog post that advises homeowners to keep their gutters in top shape during the winter. Zak Slavin, owner and founder of Slavin Home Improvements, says, “Gutters are barely noticeable. They're a system that protects your home by removing moisture and rainwater from your roof. Without gutters, water would travel straight to your yard and dislodge soil, soak your garden, stain your siding, and even cause damage to your basement. If kept unchecked over time, gutters lose their integrity. They could rust due to the presence of moisture and bacteria. Dust and leaves may encourage small animals to nest in them. Lastly, gutters can accumulate large amounts of snow and start sagging.”

It is actually a good idea to have the gutters checked by a professional roofing contractor before winter arrives. The roofer can reinforce the structure for the gutter and fill in any holes, providing the homeowner with sufficient time to replace the gutter system if necessary. And it is actually beneficial to have a professional roofer check on the gutters because it is not easy to check on them. One has to use a ladder and climb up and peer inside the downspouts. And professionals can better clean them and make sure that the rainwater will flow where it is supposed to without causing a backflow that can enter the attic. They offer a number of suggestions to have a better gutter system, which includes: keeping the system clean; installing gutter guard accessories; and using downspout extenders.

Meanwhile, they are also proud to point out a recent Slavin Home Improvements customer review. They actually have an enviable overall rating of 5.0 out of 5 stars on Google. In their latest review, Zeshan J. gave them five stars and said, “My dad recently had a roof replaced on his home and the experience was phenomenal. Zak and his team are epitome of excellent customer service and professionalism. He is a man of his word and from the moment he quoted us to the completion him and his team ensured that everything was taken care of. They are very reasonably priced and stand by their work. They did excellent work and left the property as clean as they found it. I highly recommend them for anyone looking to get a roof replacement/repair.”
