How do I know if my gutters need to be replaced?

• <div><p>With routine maintenance, gutters don’t usually need to be replaced for 20 years, but there are warning signs that they might need early replacement. Signs that your gutters need to be replaced include sagging, visible cracks or holes, peeling paint, rust, <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/standing-water-sign-your-gutters-need-repair.htm">standing water in your gutter</a>, and water leaking into your basement. Pushing off replacing your gutters can lead to extensive damage to both the interior and exterior of your home. Regular maintenance can help your gutters last all 20 years — and sometimes, even longer. </p></div>

Can installing gutter guards reduce the chances of my gutters clogging?

• <div><p>Gutter guards can slow down the process of getting clogged gutters, but they won’t technically reduce your chances of it happening. They’re not a permanent solution. Instead, they’re a temporary fix where after some time, leaves and debris will continue to build on top of them and make your gutters less effective. Periodically cleaning your gutters is the best way to reduce the chances of them clogging.</p></div>

Q: What are alternatives to gutter guards?

• <div><p>If you don't want to install gutter guards, the most inexpensive alternative is to clean your gutters as soon as they start to fill up. You can use a leaf blower attachment to make this process easier. You can also install gutter screens, which are typically made of wire mesh, nylon, or foam. These usually cost much less than a full gutter guard installation and can reduce regular gutter cleanings. </p></div>

Q: Does my house need gutters?

• <div><p>While gutters aren't legally required for homeowners, they are considered essential for protecting homes against rot, mold, roof leaks, and foundation issues. Your home may be an exception if it's fully surrounded by concrete, sits at the top of a hill, has a 10-inch overhang, or stands in a practically rainless climate. If you've purchased a home that doesn't have gutters, it may be time to either learn<a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/6-tips-about-how-install-gutters.htm"> how to install gutters</a> or call in a local gutter company before you experience water damage. </p></div>

Q: How do I know if my gutters need to be replaced?

• <div><p>With routine maintenance, gutters don&rsquo;t usually need to be replaced for 20 years, but there are warning signs that they might need early replacement. Signs that your gutters need to be replaced include sagging, visible cracks or holes, peeling paint, rust, <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/standing-water-sign-your-gutters-need-repair.htm">standing water in your gutter</a>, and water leaking into your basement. Pushing off replacing your gutters can lead to extensive damage to both the interior and exterior of your home. Regular maintenance can help your gutters last all 20 years &mdash; and sometimes, even longer. </p></div>

Q: Are there alternatives to a gutter system?

• <div><p>Yes, you can opt to use one of these gutter system alternatives. The most traditional alternative is rain chains, which are literally heavy chains dangling from your roof&rsquo;s edge to divert rainwater. A rain dispersal system may also come in handy as it breaks up the water on your roof. Most gutters already come with a dripedge to help direct water into gutters. However, we recommend installing a full gutter system to protect your home and use alternative methods as additional protection.</p></div>

The two guys were very fast, efficient and cleaned up all of the mess. There was damage to one window screen, one panel of the patio door and missing part for the door which they are replacing and taking care of it for us. We were very pleased.
