Gutters & Downspouts Services
Most home owners don’t spend a lot of time thinking about their gutters, but understanding their importance may prevent costly home repair bills in the future.
Gutters funnel water off of the roof and away from the building, which protects your siding, windows, doors and foundation from water damage. While that sounds important, many building owners don’t realize how much damage can occur when their gutters are clogged, leaking, or broken. When gutters aren’t functioning properly, rainwater runs off the roof of the building and collects on the ground near the foundation. Heavy rains can result in standing pools of water, which can cause a multitude of problems.
Gutters protect your building from:
Building and basement flooding
Ice Dams – Clogged gutters prevent water from draining – meaning the water stays in the gutter. When winter rolls around, this water freezes. When the water freezes, it naturally expands – which can pull the gutters off the building, crack the building’s fascia, and damage the integrity of the roof as well.
Cracked/damaged foundation
Infestations – Mosquitoes and other insects breed in standing water
Mold – overflowing gutters create an environment for mold to flourish in crawlspaces and basements
Erosion: Topsoil protects the foundation of your home. If water is not correctly diverted away from your home the topsoil will erode and leave your foundation vulnerable.
Staining to the exterior of your building’s fascia, soffit, wood framing and outside walls as well as decks, patios, driveways and walkways
Paint damage
Rotting/Rusting of exterior building products
Damage to landscaping – Fungi can damage or kill your flowers and trees
If the list sounds somewhat dramatic, remember that you don’t have to live in an area that experiences extreme weather conditions to suffer the effects of clogged or damaged gutters. Consider this startling fact: experts estimate that one inch of rain on an average sized house roof creates about 500 gallons of rainwater runoff. That’s a lot of water!
