Roof Gutters: What Are They & Why Do You Need Them?

Roof gutters are an essential part of your home's roof system. The primary purpose of roof gutters is to prevent water damage to your property. If water is allowed to flow off the roof and onto the ground near the foundation, it can cause serious damage over time. Potential complications include cracking and settling of the foundation, water infiltration and mould growth.

Having a functional gutter system in place also helps to protect your landscaping and outdoor living spaces by preventing water from eroding the soil and causing damage to your lawn, garden and outdoor structures.

Gutter Installation

Installing a new gutter system is an important step in protecting your home from water damage. At Ricky Jenner, we can take care of the entire installation process. We usually start by measuring the length of the eaves on your home, which will determine the amount of gutter material needed. Next, the gutter components, such as the downspouts and end caps, are installed. The gutters are then attached to the roof using hangers or brackets, and the downspouts are connected to the gutters and positioned to direct the water away from the foundation. Finally, the gutter system is tested to ensure that it is working properly and any necessary adjustments are made.

Gutter Guards & Mesh

Gutter guards and mesh are designed to protect your gutters from debris, such as leaves and twigs, that can cause gutters to clog and overflow. These products are typically made of metal or plastic and are installed over the gutters to keep the debris out. Gutter guards are particularly helpful in areas where trees stand close to the home, as they reduce the frequency of cleaning required and prevent blockage-related damage.

Gutter Repairs & Leaks

Gutters are subjected to a lot of wear and tear over time, and it’s common for them to develop leaks or other issues that can cause water damage. To prevent this, it’s important to inspect your gutters regularly and repair any damage as soon as possible.

Common gutter problems include cracks, holes and separations, which can be caused by a variety of factors including age, weather and heavy debris. If you notice any of these problems, contact us to book a prompt repair to prevent further damage to your home.
