For rental property owners in the South Easter US, including Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Tennessee, clogged gutters can cause water damage to your buildings and cost you quite a lot of money. When compared to the cost of repairing that damage, taking the steps to prevent it from happening in the first place is much more cost effective.
The Dangers of Unprotected Gutters
Clogged gutters can result in poor drainage, sending water everywhere you don’t want it go, and none of the places you do. Having rain spill down right over your resident’s front door as they’re walking outside to go to work is going to ruin their day, but that’s actually the least of your worries if you have a serious gutter clog.
A clogged gutter can cause rain water to spill over the sides of the gutter and collect near the foundation. Eventually the water can cause cracks to develop, damaging the foundation and potentially causing a collapse. Even without a full structural collapse, the cracks can lead to leaks, flooding, and mold growth. Improper drainage may also ruin expensive landscaping near the building. Any one of these problems can be a nightmare for a landlord or property manager.
How Gutterglove Works, And How the Competition Doesn’t
Most gutter protection products rely on water surface tension to redirect rain water over the front edge of a curved plastic cover, and back into the gutter. These systems only work under ideal circumstances, and contrary to the manufacturer’s claims, pass quite a bit of leaves and debris into your gutters, forming clogs. Under light rain, the water gently clings to the surface of the guard, similar to how water sticks to the side of a glass as you begin to pour. However, heavy rains will rush down the roof and flow right over the guards. At that’s point it’s as if there aren’t any gutters at all.
Gutter glove is different because it uses a filtration process, rather than surface tension. The mirco-mesh filter allows water to flow directly into your gutters, but anything larger than dust or pollen is caught, preventing a clog from ever forming. The water will drain away as intended, and your apartments or rental property will remain protected.
