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: How can I stop water from leaking between my gutters and fascia?

• <div><p>How you stop water from leaking between your gutters and fascia depends on the cause of the leak. Some leaks can be fixed simply by cleaning out clogged gutters or downspouts. Other leaks require you to seal holes or cracks in your gutters. Meanwhile, some leaks are a structural issue that requires replacing, changing, or adjusting your gutter system.</p></div>

Q: How do I get my gutters looking new again?

• <div><p>The trick to getting gleaming gutters can vary based on the material of your gutters. Aluminum gutters can often be restored to pristine condition by using a cloth to scrub them with a solution consisting of 1 cup of vinegar and 1 cup of water. Vinyl gutters can be whitened using dish soap and water. For deeply stained vinyl gutters, adding bleach with water and dish soap may help to remove black streaks. Many retailers sell premixed gutter sprays. Applying cleaning solutions to dry gutters before rinsing can help cleaners attach to dirt and grime for easier removal.</p></div>

Q: If I’m replacing the roof, should I also replace the gutters?

• <div><p>If you&rsquo;re replacing your roof, you don&rsquo;t need to worry about replacing your gutters as long as they&rsquo;re functional and in good condition. Some roofers may recommend temporarily removing gutters to prevent them from damage during a roof replacement, but the right professional can reduce this risk. Replacing your gutters would only be necessary if your gutters are in bad shape and already need replacing. </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.
