GUTTER GUARD LEAF PROTECTION

Your home’s foundation begins at the roofline.

It’s true that people are often well aware of the consequences of a leaky roof or a broken window, but what about a clogged gutter? Truthfully, a clogged gutter has the potential to be worse than either of the aforementioned issues just due to the fact that it can be much harder to spot.

You can almost think of gutters as your home’s immune system. Its primary function is to remove water from the roof and away from the home. In doing this it protects numerous parts of your home, such as the roof (naturally), doors, the foundation and your siding. A clogged gutter can also leak into your interior walls, rot your fascia, and damage soffit. A clogged gutter system with standing water is also a haven for mosquitoes, earwigs, ants, and other pests.

Now that you’re aware of the importance gutters have in your home you should also realize how important it is to protect them so that they can do their job. This is why we offer the installation of gutter guards, as well as entire roof drainage systems.

HOME GUTTER REPLACEMENT

Faulty gutters can lead to excess moisture from rain, sleet or snow that can pool in your gutters, walkways, driveway and yard. An abundance of standing water so close to your home can slowly leak into your foundation and basement. This can cause extensive damage, lead to safety concerns and even a decline in your home’s value if not remedied. It’s vital to take care of gutter problems as soon as you notice them, and it’s also why we recommend an annual gutter inspection to address problems quickly.

GUTTER INSTALLATION COST FACTORS

Whether or not you’re on a budget, it’s helpful to consider the factors that affect the cost of a new gutter installation before you start the project. The square footage of your home is one of the biggest factors. Generally, the bigger that your roof is, the longer your gutter system will need to be and the more the project will cost.

The materials and type of gutters are other major factors that will affect how expensive your project is. While sectional and seamless gutters are about the same price, seamless gutters may be slightly more. Keep in mind that choosing aluminum or vinyl materials will cost less than copper and steel. A gutter system requires connecting features, such as brackets and elbows, to properly function. Additionally, installing underground downspouts or extra drainage will cost more than standard downspouts that drain into your yard.

TYPES OF RAIN GUTTER INSTALLATION

Heavy rain and strong winds can put a lot of extra stress on your gutters. If you’ve had a bad rainstorm in your area recently, your gutters may have sustained damage from these extreme elements. Fallen tree limbs can cause gutter damage, too.
