Is it normal for gutters to drip at the seams?

• <div><p>Gutters should not drip at the seams. This problem could indicate that water is collecting in the gutters instead of moving to the downspouts. You could have leaves or other debris blocking the flow of water at the seams. Try <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/why-gutter-cleaning-so-important.htm">cleaning the gutters</a>, adjusting the slope, and sealing any holes or cracks in the material to fix this problem. </p></div>

Q: What happens if soffits are not vented?

• <div><p>When soffits aren&rsquo;t vented, the airflow can&rsquo;t infiltrate your attic space which results in stale air trapped inside. Over time&mdash;sometimes very quickly&mdash;that trapped air can result in a moisture sink, causing rapidly growing mold issues throughout the home. You should generally avoid covering or fully closing off soffits, even in the winter months, as the ability to circulate air is far more important than the meager increase in heating costs. </p></div>

Q: Why is rain dripping between the gutter and fascia?

• <div><p>Water should not be dripping behind your gutters. Rain dripping between your gutters and the fascia might indicate that the gutters are misaligned with the fascia board or there are loose screws in the gutters, allowing water to pass through. Start by checking for these issues and make repairs ASAP.</p></div>

Q: Are heated gutters more difficult to maintain?

• <div><p>Heated gutters are significantly easier to maintain than standard gutters. While you will have to check to make sure they&rsquo;re functioning properly and aren&rsquo;t accumulating leaves and other tree debris, you will never have to worry about ice dams, icicle formation, or related gutter damage and repairs, which can get expensive. Heated gutters will require an upfront investment, but it might very well be worth it for the time and potential money you&rsquo;ll save down the road on gutter maintenance.</p></div>

Q: How many years do gutters last?

• <div><p>On average, gutters last between 15 and 25 years. Certain materials (stainless and galvanized steel, copper, and cast iron) will have much longer lifespans, with much higher price tags. Vinyl typically lasts only 10 to 15 years, while the second most commonly used material, aluminum, lasts an average of 25 years. Only you as the homeowner will know if the additional cost of upgraded materials makes sense for your home.</p></div>

Jose is very efficient and knowledgeable. He worked on my dryer that the timer had gone out. He had to order the part and then came back promptly and installed it. While he was here he looked at my dishwasher as I had put on (because I took it apart to clean it) took him maybe 3 minutes. I...

Excellent work. But it took awhile to get an appointment. I think John is in such demand (probably because he does very good work) that it is a little frustrating. The carpet was removed and taken away, and the refinishing project went very well. Clean, neat and professional work.
