What is the most common problem with gutters?

<div><p>The most common problem with gutters is clogs and improper drainage. The most common cause is when surrounding trees drop leaves, blossoms, seeds, and other debris into your gutters. Debris gets wet and soggy in the gutter and blocks the opening of the downspout to prevent water from draining. Even moderate to steady rain can cause water to overflow the gutters. <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/why-gutter-cleaning-so-important.htm">Clean the gutters</a> as safely as possible every spring and fall. You may have to clean them out more than once when lots of leaves are falling over the course of several weeks.</p></div>

What damage can a leaking gutter cause?

<div><p>Leaking gutters can cause major problems in your home, which is <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/why-gutter-cleaning-so-important.htm">why cleaning your gutters is important</a>. Water leaking behind the gutters can cause the wood at the edge of your roof and even part of the roof to rot. When gutters and downspouts leak, the ground next to the foundation becomes saturated and can end up causing cracks and water leaks in your basement or crawl space. Overflowing gutters can cause moisture problems with windows and exterior walls. </p></div>

How much do gutters cost?

<div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-gutter-replacement-cost.htm">Gutter installation costs</a> from <b>$4 to $30 per linear foot</b>. Cost factors include linear footage, type of gutter, and material (aluminum, copper, etc.). The number and length of downspouts also impact the cost. Roof repairs are another potential cost. Optional add-ons include gutter guards or gutter screens to keep debris out of the gutters.</p></div>

Does replacing gutters add value to your home?

<div><p>Although installing or replacing gutters doesn’t usually add directly to the value of your home, it can help maintain the value of your home by preventing water damage from overflowing or leaking. Aside from the practical preventative maintenance, a neat, clean new gutter system can certainly add to your home’s curb appeal.</p></div>

What are common signs that your gutters need to be replaced?

<div><p>Several telltale signs indicate that it’s time to replace your gutters. The most common signs include:</p><ul><li><p>Peeling paint</p></li><li><p>Standing water in your gutters</p></li><li><p>Pulling away from the roof line</p></li><li><p>Leaking behind the gutters</p></li><li><p>Widening, leaking gaps in the seams of your gutters</p></li><li><p>Cracking </p></li><li><p>Sagging gutters </p></li><li><p>Rusting</p></li><li><p>Growing mold</p></li><li><p>Soaking foundation walls</p></li></ul><p></p></div>

"ROOFTOP DESIGN IS A HORRIBLE SCAM I would be remiss not to take the time to warn others. ROOFTOP DESIGN came as a third option for roofing. However, the initial representative ED form ROOFTOP DESIGN was very professional and thorough. The problem is, he represented a bunch of shysters. Ed’s first quote to was $35,000. After approximately three days of conversation and negotiations we were at $17,000.00 for the exact same product that they tried to sale for $35,000. Salesmen Ed was no-longer reaching out to me. Someone by the name of John called me and asked, what is it that they can do to make this deal happen. We settled at $16,500.00. Once again, $16,500 for everything discussed for the original $35,000 including a 50-year warranty that is transferable to a buyer as a good selling point. I learned through John that they fired Ed for giving customers too good of deals. I also learned through John that this company has a starting bidding price and a bottom bidding price. Ed would give the bottom price too quickly. So, they fired him. (Although John’s price was better than Ed’s). Once the job started, I received a text from the owner Yanni Avramidis. He stated that there was a third layer of roofing. He also stated that it would not be a problem and that it would take a little longer. IF THERE WAS GOING TO BE ANY ADDITIONAL CHARGES, NOW WOULD BE THE TIME TO MENTION IT. Approximately two days after the completion of the job. I had a contractor over named B. B. was there to replace the soffit beneath the location where the new roof was installed. This is when I learned and saw with my own two eyes that there was rotted or no plywood at all supporting my brand-new shingles. Mind you: per our contract, there will be an extra charge for plywood beyond the first ten free sheets. This company put my expensive shingles on top of rotted wood or no wood at all. I must admit, I was upset. However, I was cool calm and collected when I reached out to the owner Yanni Avramidis. I sent him the pictures of my findings. His explanation was that I had a 50-year warranty. My point to the owner was, if I wasn’t trying to replace my soffit it might have been months or years before this was discovered. I also said, what about the elderly man or woman that doesn’t have the ambition to check your work??? The owner of ROOFTOP DESIGN became very irate. He said, “I am from Baltimore, haven’t you heard about people from Baltimore. I will beat your a**. You are going to pay me an additional $2,800.00 for the third layer of roofing and planks/ plywood.” Since I have yet to see any new plywood, I am being charged $3,000.00 per layer of roofing to be removed. I received paperwork from ROOFTOP DESIGN, the paperwork stated that my warranty was only good for as long as I owned the property. Non-transferable: Of course, I didn’t sign it. My point is, there are people being taken advantage of everyday by bullies like ROOFTOP DESIGN."
