Having a sturdy and reliable seamless rain gutter in place is essential to keeping your property in top condition and minimizing water damage. However, no gutter lasts forever. While general maintenance may extend your gutter’s lifespan, wear and tear will finally catch up, causing leakages and irreparable damage over time. When that happens, you’ll need a professional seamless rain gutter installer to help replace it.
How Do I Know If I Need a New Gutter?
If you’re already monitoring your gutter and can’t tell whether to repair or replace it, here are major warning signs that it’s time to replace it:
Gutter rust: Rust and corrosion occur when metal is exposed to weather elements. As the gutter’s protective layer peels off, water penetrates and reacts with the metal, forming rust. The longer the metal is exposed, the faster the spread will be. Therefore, if you notice orange spots or visible rusts on the gutter, you should seek the services of a professional gutter installer immediately to prevent water damage to your property.
Sagging gutters: If the right pitch is not maintained along with your gutter system, water may pool in certain parts and possibly spillover. You should consider calling a seamless rain gutter installer if you’re unable to fix this problem.
Peeling exterior paint: Old gutters pull away from the roof, allowing water to slip over the rear edge. Therefore, if you notice peeling paint on your exterior wall, it means water has infiltrated your siding or trim, and it has been happening for a period of time.
Visible holes: If you can see holes through your gutter, that calls for replacement.
