Q: Should I hire a professional to fix my gutters?

• <div><p>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.</p></div>

Q: Do buried downspouts freeze?

• <div><p>Buried downspouts can freeze during cold weather as cold water runs through them. If you&rsquo;ve discovered your downspouts are frozen, you can carefully pour hot water down the top of the downspout to defrost them. If that doesn&rsquo;t work, you may need to dig your downspout back up. Avoid trying to break the ice from the exterior using a hammer as this can cause cracks and damage to your downspout.</p><p>To avoid freezing the future, consider adding a heating cable to the exterior, which can adjust heat based on the surrounding temperature.</p></div>

Q: What are common problems with gutters?

• <div><p>Clogged gutters are one of the most common problems homeowners will face since excess debris from trees or other outside elements can prevent water from passing through properly. Other common problems include leaks and holes, which can usually be repaired with gutter sealant or caulk, as well as damaged gutters from strong storms or improperly pitched gutters. </p></div>

Q: How often do I need to replace gutter hangers?

• <div><p>How long hangers last will depend on what <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-are-most-popular-gutter-materials.htm">gutter material</a> they&rsquo;re made from, but generally you can expect to get at least 10 to 15 years from them no matter what they&rsquo;re made from. But don&rsquo;t wait for them to break to give them a checkup. Inspect this part of your gutters on a yearly basis, and make repairs at the first sight of damage. </p></div>

It went quite well, only a small repair. He was very congenial. Only placed caulking on the problem at this time, will return if that does not do the trick. He was kind enough to replace a piece of vinyl siding that had been blown off by wind.
