How to Tell If Your Gutters Are Failing

Visible Signs Your Gutters Need Attention

Your gutters work hard every time it rains, but because they are above eye level, it is easy to miss the signs that they are failing. Taking the time to inspect your gutters a few times a year can save you significant expense and water damage.

Visible cracks, holes, and rust spots are obvious signs of deterioration. Gutters that are pulling away from the fascia or sagging in the middle are no longer properly sloped, which means water pools in the low spots and overflows rather than draining toward the downspouts.

Less Obvious Signs of Gutter Failure

Sometimes gutter problems are harder to spot. Soil erosion below the gutterline, water stains on your siding, mold or mildew growing on exterior walls, and a damp basement after heavy rain are all signs that your gutter system is not managing water properly.

Peeling paint or rotting wood on your fascia is another indicator. When gutters overflow or leak against the fascia board, the wood absorbs water and begins to rot. Our Gutter Installation North Georgia and Fascia and Soffit Repair services address both the gutter and fascia issues together.
