Is it better to repair or replace leaking or damaged gutters?

• <div><p>In most cases, it makes more sense to repair <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/fix-gutter-leak.htm">leaking or damaged gutters</a> than it will to replace them. You’ll spend an average of <b>$400</b> to repair your gutters, while full replacement will cost around <b>$2,000</b> or more, depending on the gutter material and style and the size of your home. If your gutters are nearing the end of their lifespan—usually around 20 years for aluminum or vinyl gutters or up to 50 years for copper or steel—then it might make sense to replace them, as it could cost you less in the long run.</p></div>

Q: Can you replace a soffit without removing gutters?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s technically possible to remove some soffit material without removing your gutters, but it&rsquo;s usually a good idea to remove gutters, fascia, and soffit and then reinstall them in the opposite order. Replacing soffits without removing gutters is likely to leave you with a less professional and clean appearance, and you&rsquo;re more likely to do damage to your gutters and fascia boards in the process.</p></div>

Q: What are the alternatives to gutter guards?

• <div><p>For homeowners who do not opt for gutter guards, the most common alternative is annual or biannual gutter cleaning. There are other products on the market designed to cut down on gutter cleanings, such as whole gutter systems like LeafGuard (which offers both gutter and guard in a single product) and guards and inserts designed to protect your downspouts.</p></div>

Q: Can a gutter have too much slope?

• <div><p>Yes. Excessive pitch in gutters can cause water to flow too rapidly, leading to a decrease in the gutter's water-holding capacity; consequently, during heavy rainstorms, water may awkwardly splash outside the gutters. Ideally, you should aim for a quarter-inch of gutter slope for every 10 feet of gutter run. However, it's important to note that this guideline may vary depending on your home's structure and the type of gutters being installed.</p></div>

Q: What are the options for fixing damaged galvanized gutters?

• <div><p>DIY is possible for minor leaks or realignments. Professional services handle complex issues like sagging or joint repairs.</p></div>

The gutters look great! They worked with me to pick materials and help design where downspouts would go. The colors match both my home's trim and paint color on my house. Solid materials and excellent craftsmanship. I will be hiring this company again for any future work!

A can of polyurethane had spilled on the backseat of my car and dried. I brought my car to Benny's and Ben had to order a new seat cover for me, remove the seat, dismantle it, replace the cover and reinstall the seat. He was fast and friendly. He also replaced a fuse for me at no charge.
