Q: Do you need gutters to hang Christmas lights?

• <div><p>In the Christmas days of yore, people braved winter weather to staple or tack their Christmas lights onto their rooftops or nearby surfaces like the fascia boards. Problems quickly emerged with that approach. Damage to the roof, even small marks from staples, provides entryways for moisture and similar issues that can hasten roof rot, wear, and associated leaks. Plus, some homes had tough fiber cement boards or other materials where staples and screws didn&rsquo;t work.</p></div>

Q: How do I find a good gutter installation company?

• <div><p>You can start by looking for gutter companies in your area with several years of experience, the proper licensing and certifications, and positive customer reviews. We recommend speaking with a few gutter companies and comparing price quotes before <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/hiring-best-gutter-installation-contractor.htm">hiring a gutter installation company</a>. Ask whether the gutter installer will perform an in-person or virtual consultation ahead of installation, giving preference to teams that visit your home. You can also ask for customer references and warranty information to find the best value overall.</p></div>

Q: Is it normal for gutters to overflow in heavy rain?

• <div><p>No&mdash;gutters should be designed and properly installed so they are ready to handle any level of rainflow from your roof. If you notice pooling water around your gutters or on the roof, it&rsquo;s imperative that you contact a <a href="https://www.angi.com/nearme/gutter-repair/">gutter repair pro near you</a>&mdash;the slope of your gutters could be off and need adjusting.</p></div>

Q: Can overflowing gutters cause damage?

• <div><p>Absolutely&mdash;and lots of it. Overflowing water from your gutters can damage your siding and your roof. All of the moisture getting into the cracks and crevices of your home can lead to mold or mildew problems down the line. In addition, when water pools around your home, it needs a place to go&mdash;and sometimes it ends up inside the house, creating a very unwanted flood.</p></div>

Q: Is it normal for water to drip off gutters?

• <div><p>While minimal drippage may not be problematic, gutters that are constantly leaking or overflowing indicate damage or improper installation. A <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/install-rain-chain.htm">rain chain gutter</a> or other ornamental feature may produce more dripping than usual. Likewise, rain dispersal systems may also cause water to sprinkle to the ground. However, if you notice pools of water or flooding around your property, then it&rsquo;s a good idea to have your gutter system inspected.</p></div>
