Why should I install gutters on my Greensboro home?

However, you need to schedule annual inspections if you want your gutters to last longer. Also, doing visual inspections can help to identify possible issues that should be addressed to lengthen the lifespan of your gutters. Certain problems like a few cracks and holes on your gutters are signs of minor damages, which can be repaired with flashing and sealant. However, if you see cracks and holes on most of your gutters, that’s an indication that you need a new gutter system. 

However, there’s one sign of malfunctioning gutters that we tell homeowners to watch out for—signs of peeling paint in your home. This is a major indication that your gutters are not functioning properly. It shows that there is a drainage issue with your gutter system, and water is flowing through the back of your gutters, to the siding of your home. Three major things cause this problem—misaligned, clogged, or worn out gutters. 

With that said, you should clean your gutters at least twice a year—during the fall and spring seasons. However, you should do it regularly during the rainy season, or if many trees are surrounding your Greensboro home. You can clean your gutters so long as you own a one-story home. However, if your home has more than one story, you should schedule professional gutter cleaning from us. This will make sure that the work is done professionally, and safely. 

When you notice that you have to remove debris from your gutters more regularly, and you want to avoid this stressful activity, invest in a good gutter protection system. Today, we provide numerous designs of gutter guards, which will prevent debris from getting into your gutters. Other gutter systems have tubes inside, which prevent debris and other dirt materials from setting in the gutters. This shows the importance of having a professional gutter installer evaluating your home to determine the best gutter protection system that you need.
