Repair and clean out gutters and downspouts


Rain gutters should be inspected for accumulation of debris regularly, as gutter or downspout obstructions can cause moisture buildup leading to rusting or leaks.

Accumulated debris can also become too heavy for the gutters and support clips causing the gutter to fall. Kesho Construction’s maintenance services can help avoid these issues and make repairs when required.

Kesho Construction’s maintenance services make a great roof even better. Roof maintenance will always be more cost-effective than neglect. If neglect occurs it is possible that damage caused by repetitive expansion and contraction cycles, UV rays, and weather will create cracks, splits, or blisters which untreated for too long will lead to insulation damage as well as interior damage.
