Seasonal Cleanouts to Prevent Water Damage
When it comes to gutter cleaning in Cedar Rapids, timing is everything. Iowa's mix of spring rains and falling autumn leaves creates the perfect storm for gutter clogs and overflows. Left unchecked, those clogged gutters can lead to costly water damage, especially around your home’s foundation.
At Tomlinson Cannon, we offer seasonal gutter cleaning services that keep your system flowing and your home protected, all year long.
Gutter Cleaning Cedar Rapids: Why It Matters
A clogged gutter doesn’t just make a mess, it creates real risks:
- Water pooling around your foundation
- Basement seepage and moisture issues
- Ice dams in the winter
- Gutter detachment or sagging from trapped debris
Regular cleanouts, especially in the spring and fall can keep water moving away from your home and prevent damage before it starts.
What We Remove (And Why It Matters)
Every cleaning visit includes thorough debris removal, downspout flushing, and a system check. Common blockages we remove:
- Leaves and sticks from nearby trees
- Roof grit and shingle debris
- Animal nests and seed buildup
- Standing water that attracts mosquitoes or freezes over
This isn’t just cosmetic, it’s structural protection. Your gutters are the first line of defense for your roof, siding, and basement waterproofing system.
When Should Cedar Rapids Homes Be Cleaned?
We recommend two cleanings per year:
- Spring – After thaw and tree pollination, when rainwater starts flowing
- Fall – After leaves have dropped, before snow and ice begin
Some homes–especially those near large trees may need additional visits. We’ll assess your home and suggest a plan that makes sense for your property.
