Gutters play a vital role in protecting your home from water damage, but when they’re neglected, they can cause serious issues. At Dawson’s Gutter Cleaning, we’ve seen firsthand how clogged gutters lead to costly repairs. Here are five warning signs that indicate it’s time for a professional clean.
1. Sagging Gutters or Pulling Away From the Roof
Over time, debris like leaves, dirt, and sludge accumulate in your gutters, adding weight that causes them to sag or detach from your home. If you notice your gutters pulling away, schedule a gutter cleaning service before they become a bigger problem.

2. Water Spilling Over the Edges
Are your gutters overflowing during heavy rain? This is a clear sign of blockages. When water can’t flow through properly, it spills over, causing foundation damage, soil erosion, and leaks. Avoid costly repairs by keeping your gutters clear.
3. Plants or Moss Growing in Your Gutters
Your gutters aren’t meant to be a garden! 🌱 The presence of moss, weeds, or even small plants means your gutters are clogged with organic debris, trapping moisture and accelerating decay. Regular cleaning prevents this buildup and extends the life of your gutters.
4. Pests & Insects Around Your Gutters
Birds, insects, and rodents love clogged gutters because they provide an ideal nesting environment. If you notice increased pest activity around your roofline, your gutters may be to blame. Cleaning them out removes this hazard and protects your home from infestations.
5. Damp Walls, Water Stains, or Leaks
If you notice peeling paint, damp walls, or water stains inside your home, clogged gutters could be the culprit. Overflowing water seeps into your home’s foundation and walls, leading to mold growth and structural issues. Prevent water damage with regular gutter maintenance.
