🐋💗 HUMPDAY FACTOID — YOUR ROOF ISN'T THE ONLY THING THAT COLLECTS RAIN! 🌧️🏡
Happy Wednesday, Waikato! 🙌
Here's a little property maintenance fact that might make you look twice at your gutters!
🧠 DID YOU KNOW?
A roof measuring 150 square metres can collect approximately 1,500 litres of rainwater from just 10mm of rainfall! 💦
That's a LOT of water travelling towards your gutters and downpipes!
And when gutters become clogged with leaves, moss, dirt and other debris, that water may not flow away as intended.
🌿 Overflowing gutters can contribute to:
💦 Water running down exterior walls.
🏡 Unwanted moisture around your property.
🍂 Heavy buildup of leaves and organic debris.
🌧️ Water spilling over where it shouldn't!
And here's the funny part…
Your gutters are supposed to move water, not start their own rooftop swimming pool! 😂🏊
🐋💗 THE BIG SOFTY TIP!
Don't wait until water is pouring over the edges during a Waikato downpour!
Regular gutter inspections and cleaning can help keep rainwater flowing where it belongs.
And while you're looking after your gutters, why not give the rest of your home's exterior some attention too?
At Big Softy, we use lower pressure washing and softer washing techniques where appropriate, selecting cleaning methods suited to different exterior surfaces.
🌦️ REMEMBER!
Exterior property washing is an ALL-YEAR-ROUND service!
Dirt, algae and grime don't follow a summer-only schedule, and neither should your property maintenance.
🕷️ And if unwanted spiders are making themselves at home around your exterior, Big Softy also offers professional spider treatments.
We're fully trained and certified for exterior spraying treatments, which are also an ALL-YEAR-ROUND service!
💗 YOUR HUMPDAY HOMEOWNER CHALLENGE!
Next time it rains, take a safe look from ground level at how water is flowing through your gutters and downpipes.
If something doesn't look right, it might be time for some maintenance!
