Gutters are an integral part of your roof and your landscaping. Their job seems simple enough—channel water, snow, hail, and debris from your roof away from your home. Water can damage your home, especially if it gets behind siding or any exterior surface. Gutters help protect the edge of your roof, the fascia, and your foundation by preventing water from pooling around your home during a heavy rainstorm. Here are a few signs that your gutters may be failing:
✔ Warped or Sagging Spots
✔ Mold, Mildew, or Rust Spots
✔ Water Seepage Behind Gutters
✔ Water Overflows During Storms
Even if you want to skip adding gutters altogether, your insurance company may have a different idea. The good news? They come in vinyl, aluminum, or copper and can be painted to match your home.
Gutter replacement is not cheap, but maintenance can help save you money in the long run. Gutters can quickly stop up, especially if trees surround your property. Leaves, debris, twigs, ice dams, and even rodents can block them up. Some gutters can be fitted with mesh or a leaf filter, but this doesn’t always keep the path clear. It’s best to check them once a month and immediately after a heavy storm.
