FAQs about soft washing for gutters

What is tiger striping on gutters?

Tiger stripes (also known as zebra stripes) are dark brown or black vertical lines or streaks that form on the front of gutters. This gutter problem often occurs on aluminum gutters. While the stripes usually start at the gutter lip and stop at the bottom edge of the gutter, it's not uncommon for tiger stripes to extend down the fascias and siding. The dark streaks are formed through electrostatic bonding. When your gutters overflow, particles like dirt, dust, pollen, tree sap, and algae create a grimy solution that trickles down and sticks to the face of the gutters in a stripe-like pattern.

Soft washing is a safe and effective way to remove zebra striping without damaging your gutters, roof, siding, or landscaping. Schedule a free gutter cleaning estimate to learn more about how soft washing removes tiger stripes from gutters.

Is soft washing safe for gutters?

Soft washing is a safe and effective gutter cleaning solution. Unlike pressure washing, soft washing uses a gentle combination of low-pressure water and a mild cleaning solution to remove grime, dirt, algae, and organic matter without damaging your gutters.

How often should I have my gutters soft washed?

How often you soft wash your gutters will depend on many factors, including your location, nearby vegetation, and weather conditions. It's generally suggested to invest in gutter cleaning services annually, although certain homes may require more frequent cleaning than others.

Can soft washing prevent clogged gutters?

Soft washing is primarily used as a cleaning method. While it can help eliminate harmful growths that contribute to gutter clogs, soft washing doesn't provide long-term protection from debris accumulation. The best way to prevent clogged gutters is to install gutter guards, which provide long-term, maintenance-free gutter protection.

FAQs about gutter guards

What are gutter guards?

Gutter guards, also known as gutter covers, gutter screens, or leaf guards, are protective systems designed to prevent debris from entering and clogging your gutters while allowing rainwater to flow freely. Depending on the type, they are installed on top of or within the gutter system to provide maintenance-free gutter protection. However, not all gutter guard products are created equal.

  • Gutter screens limit the flow of both debris and water, requiring manual cleanouts to avoid seedling growth and insect infestation.
  • Gutter filters quickly clog, defeating their purpose. Regular brush cleaning is needed to avoid mold growth and other damage.
  • Gutter covers are installed under shingles, lack curb appeal, and often void roof warranties.

Why install gutter guards?

Gutter guards keep unwanted debris out while allowing rainwater to flow freely. Without gutter guards, leaves, pine needles, twigs, and other debris can create clogs that leave your property vulnerable to costly water damage. Gutter guards prevent the following and more.

  • Damaged Roofing & Siding: Gutter guards prevent blockages that impact how water is diverted away from your property and protect your roof and siding from damage.
  • Basement & Foundation Flooding: Clogged gutters can cause water to pool around your basement and foundation, exposing it to thousands of gallons of water during every rainfall.
  • Pest & Insect Infestation: Stagnant water, leaves, and twigs create an ideal environment for insects and other pests. Self-cleaning gutter guards prevent debris from building up, keeping insects away and creating a safer, more enjoyable environment for your family.
  • Erosion: Gutter guards prevent pooling water that can damage plants, grass, and your foundation.

Can I install gutter guards myself?

Proper installation is essential to ensure gutter guards work effectively and provide long-lasting protection. Improper installation can cause gaps, sagging, and other issues that compromise the functionality and longevity of your gutter guards. Installing gutter guards can also be dangerous for homeowners without the right experience or equipment. Professionals are trained in safety procedures and have the necessary tools to safely and correctly install gutter guards.
