Q: What is the best sealant for gutters?

• <div><p>The best way to seal gutters is with a combination of waterproof roofing cement and silicone gutter sealant. This powerful duo works to prevent water from escaping through holes and cracks while allowing for breathability. While you can use polyurethane sealants, silicone sealants tend to be more flexible when it comes to climate. Silicone is UV-resistant and bonds well to many surfaces. However, polyurethane sealant bonds better with wood. </p></div>

Q: Are icicles a sign of clogged or bad gutters?

• <div><p>Icicles don't necessarily mean your gutters are clogged or bad, but they can indicate an underlying issue. While clogged gutters can cause icicles to form, the problem could also be an ice dam on your roof from poor insulation. In that case, melting snow can refreeze in the gutter even without a clog. Regardless of the cause, the weight of the ice can damage your gutters or even rip them completely off the house. If you are unsure of the underlying problem, it's best to call a roofing company to assess the issue and implement a permanent solution.</p></div>

Q: What typical problems might indicate the need for copper gutter repairs?

• <div><p>Leaks, corrosion, sagging sections, and loose fasteners are common problems that need fixing.</p></div>

Good job overall. Reasonable price. Willing to do what was requested. Prompt. Some scheduling conflicts with other contractors I had in. Had to have them back to touch-up some paint on doors and frames that peeled and took quite long to thoroughly dry. I would hire again.

There are a handful of things you can look for to determine if you need to pay for gutter repairs, including the following:

Water leaking from the underside of your gutters during rainfall
Visible gaps between your gutters and your roof
Frequent issues with gutters overflowing or holding standing water
Gutters that sag or pull away from the house
Water damage to soffits, fascia boards, or other building materials
Mold growth on your exterior walls
Soil erosion underneath your roof overhang
Foundation leaks or inward bowing of foundation walls
