Is Your Home Experiencing These Gutter Problems?

For most homeowners, gutters are usually just an afterthought. However, they quickly become the stars of the show when something goes wrong and they start wreaking havoc. 

Whether you’re dealing with faulty gutters or you just want to prevent any potential issues, read on. Here are the 6 most common gutter problems you should be aware of. 

Clogged Gutters

This issue is the most common one you can encounter with gutters. When clogged, they cannot drain water properly, resulting in overflows and foundation flooding during heavy rainstorms. 

The best way to ensure your gutters don’t clog is to stick to a twice-a-year cleaning schedule. That way, they will drain all the water efficiently and keep your foundation and backyard safe from flooding. 

Sagging Gutters

Sagging gutters are a direct consequence of clogging. Namely, when you let leaves, dirt, and debris stay in the gutters, the gutter hangers will become loose from the excess weight. As a result, the gutters will sag and be in danger of detaching completely. 

So, make sure you clean your gutters as soon as you notice these potential problems. 

Leaking Gutters

Leaks and holes are another common gutter issue that needs urgent addressing. They are easy to notice, as water leaks from tiny holes on the sides of the gutters instead of through the main drainage hole. 

Luckily, leaks are also easy to fix. All you need is some caulk sealant and a ladder, and your gutters will be as good as new. 

Damaged Gutters

Besides leaks, gutter damage can also happen due to strong winds or extreme weather. In such cases, the gutters can detach, break, or sustain a lot of tears. 

Depending on the severity of the damage, the solutions for this issue range from a simple rehanging to a total replacement. 

Improperly Pitched Gutters

For proper drainage, your gutters have to be hung and angled perfectly. If that isn’t the case, the water won’t flow and will instead stay stranded inside the gutters up on your roof. 

In this instance, your best option is to contact a professional and have them readjust the gutters. 

Wrong Gutter System

Finally, it’s important to mention that not all gutter systems are created equal. So, every home needs a different system that suits its size and accommodates the weather patterns in that particular area. 

Thus, before picking a gutter system, make sure you get sound advice from a professional. Doing so can make all the difference when it comes to your gutter’s lifespan and efficiency.
