How to Replace Your Home’s Gutter
Gutters are an integral part of your roofing system. They redirect water to keep it away from the foundation, siding, and interior walls of the home. Gutters can prevent moisture from seeping behind the walls to cause interior rot and mold problems. Learn more about the signs that it is time to replace the gutters and the process of gutter replacement.
Signs Indicating Gutter Replacement
Knowing what to look for will allow you to fix the problem early before it becomes a bigger and costlier problem. These signs include outlines of visible damage, such as cracks, leaks, corrosion, and other signs of deterioration, the gutters sagging and pulling away from the house, and interior water damage. Sagging and pulling away from the house is a structural issue that may also require roof repairs to remedy. Interior water damage may show up as water stains and/or mold along the drywall as well as peeling paint.
