Clog's Hibernating For The Winter

So....I had a great Christmas and I hope you did as well.  For a week or two I hardly thought about gutters. The snow fell and our business slowed down in it's usual winter way as the freeze set in...something I look forward to every year after the extreme busyness of the fall season. Most people will not give their gutters another thought until the snow melts. The trouble is that there will be a rude awakening for anyone who didn't clean their gutters out in the fall. Since the debris will have been left in the gutters to hibernate all winter long when the cold rains of April come you will have to get on the ladder and do a most unpleasant job. The leaves will have turned into a stinky muck and your gutters will be a chore to clean. If you're not looking forward to this then you should call SpringRock in January or February and be the first on our installation list for the spring...I wish I could put a scratch-and-sniff into our web page to remind you how bad the gutters smell after a winter of decomposing debris, but then again, if you call us for your free estimate during these winter months then it's a smell you will never have to experience again. Don't be fooled by the frozen weather, spring will come and if your gutters are still clogged then all the water issues you had last fall will come back to haunt you again with all the costly consequences that go along with them. Call SpringRock today and ask for Peter or Tim.
