Q: Do gutters prevent ice dams?

• <div><p>Gutters alone do not prevent ice dams, although proper drainage can help reduce the chance of them forming. It&rsquo;s also a common myth that <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/do-gutters-cause-ice-dams.htm">gutters cause ice dams</a>, but even houses without gutters are susceptible to ice dams. Keeping your gutters clear and in good condition can help water drain more efficiently, which may help keep ice dams from forming. </p></div>

Q: Do professionals offer seamless PVC gutters?

• <div><p>Yes, many installers provide seamless options to reduce leaks and improve durability.</p></div>

Q: Are new gutters expensive?

• <div><p>New gutters cost on average $1,900 for an average sized home, but can cost much more depending on your house size. Gutters are a basic necessity for homes in order to keep water from pooling around your house and damaging the exterior. It&rsquo;s also a project that can last for many decades with minimal ongoing costs (especially if you&rsquo;re able to clean gutters yourself). While an expensive upfront cost, the decades long lifespan and low maintenance costs make it a worthwhile investment.</p></div>

Q: Should you remove gutters before painting?

• <div><p>You can remove your gutters before painting, but it's rarely required. It can be easier to paint gutters on the ground once you or a pro have removed them, but replacing them afterward can be challenging. In these cases, removing gutters may be impractical. Make your decision based on your comfort level and abilities.</p></div>

Q: Do gutter guards work in heavy rain?

• <div><p>Gutter guards work in heavy rain, but perhaps not as well. The main purpose of gutter guards is to protect your gutters from getting clogged with debris, which can be carried (or worsened) by heavy rain. However, a <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/4-ways-clogged-gutters-can-damage-home.htm">clogged gutter</a> isn&rsquo;t the only reason rain isn&rsquo;t traveling through your gutter properly. Other reasons include roof shingles extending past your gutters, improperly installed gutters, or incorrect gutter sizes. </p><p>If you suspect you have any of these other gutter issues, it may be more cost-effective to repair your gutters first and see if that solves the problem before investing in gutter guards.</p></div>
