Your gutters redirect rainwater to your downspouts, protecting your home from a leaky roof, damaged foundation, and stained siding. If your gutters need a replacement or if your home has no gutter system, then you might have issues in the future. Here are a few things you need to know when getting new gutters for your home:
Gutter Pitch
It’s typically unnoticeable, but all gutters have a slight pitch. This makes sure that rain keeps flowing to your downspout. The right pitch for your home’s structure will squeeze more performance out of your gutter system. We will analyze your home, use the proper pitch, and install the right number of downspouts.
Gutter Sizes
As an expert in gutters and replacement windows, we understand the importance of using the right sized products. Different homes have different needs when it comes to their gutters. In particular, homes with multiple gables, varying degrees of pitch, and multiple rooflines need a special plan. We will scale your gutters based on your local weather and your roof’s square footage. Given our over a century of experience, we know the right size and type of gutters for our area.
Gutter Protection Systems
You also need to think about the importance of gutter protection. Your gutters’ open design can leave them vulnerable to pine needles, leaves, and other debris. This debris can form gutter clogs and cause your gutter to overflow, increasing the risk of water damage. A gutter protection system can prevent this from happening. They block leaves and other debris while allowing water to flow freely into your gutters.
