Gutters that rarely get cleaned out are the perfect location for ice dams to develop. These leaves and debris make it difficult for water to drain from your gutters. In turn, ice dams quickly form which add significant pressure and stress to the structure of your gutters. One great way to prevent ice dams from forming on your property in Minnesota is to ensure that you regularly clean your gutters. Regular gutter cleaning will ensure that the excess liquid is able to drain out of your gutters quickly.
