Most of us grew up doing chores around the house and at one point or another one of those chores might have been cleaning gutters. I venture to say that is probably not the most exciting thing you ever had to do. Now that you are all grown up and bought your first home in the Greater Athens, Georgia Area you are probably wondering, do you need to clean your gutters in Athens, Georgia? Watch this short video to hear my opinion and learn about some of the very basic tools you will need to do the job right.
Hi, my name is Georgui Kassaev, and I'm a realtor in Athens, Georgia. Today, I wanted to talk to you guys a little bit about house maintenance. If you recently purchased a house, there are certain things you should know. One of the things is you need to clean your gutters. Water prevention is one of the most important things when you own a home. Water can destroy and damage your property pretty quickly. One of the easiest ways to prevent that from happening is by regularly maintaining your gutters, and cleaning them.
It's not a very difficult job. All you need is a couple of things. You're going to need some sort of gloves, like you see right behind me right here, maybe a trash bag, or some sort of a trash can, so you can gather the leaves that you are going to be picking out of the gutters and just a little bit of a time. Also, you're going to need a ladder. Make sure you use plenty of caution when you're climbing and descending the ladder. Make sure that there's always somebody with you in the case that if you do fall, there is somebody there to help you out. And if you can, just employ the help of a professional. But in any case, there are plenty of tutorials online that can teach you how to clean gutters. You can also call a gutter cleaning companies, and just find out how to clean gutters. However, it is a must.
Gutters have to be cleaned! You have to make sure that they're clear, so the water doesn't get into the fascia and the behind all the siding, and destroy your home. If you want to retain the value of your home you do not want water damaging your house. Because when you do sell your home, there's going to be an inspection done, and they will check for water intrusion. If there is water intrusion it is going to decrease the price that you're going to be able to get for your home, so maintain the value of your home by maintaining your gutters.
All right guys. Oh, and in case you're wondering why I have a broom over here. I am currently standing on a flat roof. Because of that, I am going to have to do a little bit of extra maintenance. I'm going to have to clear the roof from standing water if there is some, and the little bit of the leaves that have gathered on top of it as well. Protect your roof. Protect your gutters. Protect your home. My name is Georgui Kassaev, http://MyAthensRealtor.com. If you need to buy or sell a home, check out my website, and see the testimonials. Take care.
