King of Prussia, PA -- (SBWIRE) -- 11/05/2019 -- As the premier windows, siding, gutters, and roofing contractors serving Newtown Square and the surrounding areas, G. Cannon Roofing and Siding understands the need for homeowners to rely on their gutter systems during the winter. Now, the company with a reputation as one of the area's top-rated home contractors is advising on how and why gutter systems need to need to be addressed this season.

Gutters should be kept in excellent condition year-round, but this becomes even more imperative during the wintertime. This is because during the fall, twigs, leaves, and other debris can fall into them and clog the system. While this can be an issue on its own, when winter weather causes water in gutters to freeze, it can lead to ice dams which pose an even more serious problem.

However, the possibility of ice dams forming in gutters isn't the only potential issue that homeowners face during the winter season. The weight of fallen debris combined with the heft of ice, snow, and water can cause gutters to sag, pull away, and even fall from a home, resulting in flooding, leaks, and creating potentially dangerous conditions for any residents walking underneath.

To avoid these hazardous conditions, G. Cannon Roofing and Siding recommends that homeowners rid their gutters of any debris and detritus before the winter season arrives. It's advised to scoop out this debris before it becomes stuck in a downspout, which can make it much more difficult to remove. Additionally, homeowners should check for signs of rust, leaks, or dents in their gutters to ensure their proper function.

Any homeowners in need of assistance inspecting, repairing, or replacing their gutter systems are urged to call in the professionals at G. Cannon Roofing and Siding. For years, their highly experienced team has been trusted to expertly address gutter issues and stop basement flooding, foundation flooding, and exterior damage in its tracks.
