Splash guards are crucial to have as they deflect and direct water coming down the valley. You may have noticed a puddle under a corner of your gutter. Chances are you may not have a splash guard and so when the water is rushing down the valley on your roof it is simply lauching off your house onto the ground creating a puddle which just may freeze and cause an injury. Debris build up in the corner of the gutter wont help either so having your gutters cleaned of course helps. Splash guards are only $10 and certainly help. Next time you are outside look for those little walls you see on the corners of gutters. Those are splash guards!

After everything is done I go around the perimeter of your house insuring the property looks as it did when I arrived cleaning off any debris that may have gotten on your driveway and or patio etc.
