Gutters are vital to your home’s defense against water damage. By collecting rainwater and directing it away from your foundation, gutters help prevent basement flooding and foundation issues. They also provide a beautiful aesthetic to your house’s exterior. However, clogs and other problems can cause gutters to fail, leaving your home susceptible to water damage. Fortunately, these problems are usually easy to fix when you know what to look for.
Awning installation: Check that fasteners are tight and if necessary, replace them. This includes gutter spikes and fascia hanger brackets that attach the gutter to your house. Loose screws or stripped holes may indicate that the original hardware has deteriorated. In this case, you can use aluminum fasteners from your local hardware store to re-tighten the gutters.
Gutter Repair: Why Choose Tupelo Gutter Service for Reliable Solutions
Cleaning & Preparing the Gutter System: Before the repair work begins, your contractor should remove any debris like leaves, pine needles, twigs and other items that can obstruct water flow and lead to future clogs. They can also seal leaky gutter joints, re-seal downspouts and tighten loose brackets and hangers.
Dents & Cracks: If there are only small areas of damaged gutter, the contractor can re-seal the affected area with a silicone sealant. Larger areas of damage may need a replacement gutter section or even a new gutter system.
Seamless gutters are available in a range of colors and materials to match your home’s exterior. Your contractor can advise you on the best gutter material for your home based on budget and style preferences. They can also recommend accessories to compliment your new gutters like downspout extensions and leaf guards. They can also recommend gutter systems with strong manufacturer warranties and their own installation guarantees.
