Timely repair ensures that your home’s guttering system is working as it should.
Your gutters play a key role in protecting your Greensboro, North Carolina home from water damage, yet you might not fully understand their purpose or the importance of timely gutter repair. This wouldn’t be surprising, as they are often an afterthought despite their importance.
The good news is that our team at ABC Roofing and Exteriors can help make sure your guttering system is functioning as it should, as well as answer any questions you might have, particularly when it comes to gutter repair. Wondering what some of the telltale signs are that repair is needed? Here are a few:
- Visible Cracks, Rust, and Holes: Small cracks may appear insignificant, but they can soon grow, allowing water to seep onto siding or foundations. Additionally, rust marks and holes indicate that your gutters are deteriorating and could fail shortly.
- Sagging or Pulling from the Roofline: When gutters sag or separate, it is usually due to clogging, overloading, or faulty fastening. This not only impacts how well they drain, but it can also cause damage to your roof and fascia boards.
- Water Overflowing or Pooling Around the Foundation: If you find water pouring over the sides or pooling near your home’s foundation, your gutters aren’t working properly. This can cause basement floods, foundation problems, and soil erosion.
- Peeling Paint or Water Stains: Watermarks on external walls, flaking paint, or mold growing around gutters typically mean that water is escaping rather than going through the downspouts.
If you have noticed any of these signs or are curious about the state of your gutters, we invite you to reach out to us. We will assess the situation and provide you with our recommendations, including what gutter repair is needed.
