When my son arrived home from school, he immediately had his heavy snacks of rice and 2 pieces of pork barbecue. After that, he went to his laptop and started to do the yearbook he is assigned to finish.
But before he sat down, I requested him to accompany me go up to the roof of the house and check the gutter, since the rain water yesterday was dripping at the corner of the roof, and no water was going out of the downspout.
He advised me to stay,; he went up alone. He said the gutter is clear of debris, but there were some black soot-like dirt at the hole of the downspout. He therefore cleared it with the hard broom and scooped out the black soot out and threw these to the ground.
It did not rain. We expect therefore that the rainwater will not collect at the gutter but will flow freely to the downspout.

It is important to keep a check on these things especially in the rainy season

that is true; otherwise, the house might be having holes from the roof and rain water might drip

You have a good son. I wish someone would come clean my gutters. Last time I tried it was a failure because I am too short and also scared to be on a ladder.

it is not destroyed or damaged,; it was just full of leaves and soot.
