Gutter Repair and Replacement questions, answered by experts
Outside of regular maintenance, most gutter repairs are best left to the pros. Most gutter projects require basic ladder safety and (sometimes) getting on top of your roof. Without the proper equipment (or if you generally get a little nervous with heights), you could put yourself at risk of serious injury. On top of that, improperly repaired gutters could result in longer term damage that requires a full replacement.
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
The most common problem with gutters is clogging from debris like leaves, blossoms, and seeds from surrounding trees. This debris can block downspouts, leading to improper drainage and water overflow.
Other common issues include:
Leaks and holes, which can often be repaired with gutter sealant or caulk.
Rust, sagging, or detachment from the roofline.
Damage from strong storms.
Improperly pitched gutters that don't drain correctly.
Regular cleaning in the spring and fall is the best way to prevent most of these problems. You may need to clean them more often during periods of heavy leaf fall.
Snow and ice can both accumulate on the top of a metal roof and slide off as the weight of the snow increases or as the snow and ice melt. This can rip the gutters off your roof and damage the gutters or the roof if you don’t take preventative measures. Snow guards are one of the easiest methods for helping to prevent snow accumulation on your metal roof from damaging your gutters.
Leaks, corrosion, sagging sections, and loose fasteners are common problems that need fixing.
