A Step in Time offers a full range of gutter cleaning services. Most home owners do not fully realize the importance of having their gutters cleaned. Home owners will notice the inconvenience of having water overflow on their walkways. Most do not realize that this overflow of water soaks through the soil along their home’s foundations. Many times, the soil is clay and will shrink and swell during flucculations of rainfall saturation. These concrete foundations will lift and fall. This movement is only 1 inch or less but over time can cause severe foundation damage. Many foundation contractors will arrive “after the fact” and recommend installation of resistance piers to stabilize the foundations. A stitch in time can save nine.
To prevent foundation damage, it is best to drain your gutters away from your home. The 2006 IRC building codes require
R801.3 Roof Drainage
“In areas where expansive or collapsible soils are known to exist, all dwellings shall have a controlled method of water disposal from roofs that will collect and discharge roof drainage to the ground surface at least 5 feet (1524 mm) from foundation walls or to an approved drainage system.”
