As we approach fall it is important not to overlook the leaves falling that can accumulate in your gutters. 

Leaves left in your gutters can cause water damage to your home. 

Roof damage:

Trapped leaves in your gutter can cause water to back up and seep under your shingles. This can lead to deterioration to your roof increase the chance of water leaks.

Ceiling Leaks: 

Trapped leaves in your gutters can also cause your roof to leak. Water can seep into your attic space that can result in rotting wood that can cause structural damage.
