Are you wondering if it is time to upgrade the gutter system at your home? If so, you may be reluctant to do so because of the expense or the hassle. But the truth is, if you ignore your gutter problems for too long, they can lead to even more costly damage down the road. That is why it is important to recognize the signs of failing gutters and have them repaired or replaced as soon as possible.
For many homeowners, ineffective or damaged gutters are easy to recognize. Some of the tell-tale signs that it might be time to address your gutter system include overflowing gutter troughs, roof debris, rust, seam failure, fascia or roof damage, and unsightly streaking – also known as “tiger striping”, which occurs when dirty rainwater overflows from the gutter system and leaves stains on the gutter exterior. While these problems may be noticeable, other gutter issues may be less apparent, but just as telling.
To decide whether or not your gutter system is failing, it is also recommended to check your foundation. When gutter troughs overflow back towards your home, the water can pool up and erode your foundation over time, causing cracking or other damage. Also, if your gutter system has hard, winding angles, this can lead to leaks and overflows. Gutter systems should be snug up against the home to safely collect and transport all rainwater away from your home.
If you notice any of these gutter problems and believe it’s time to upgrade, consider the BELDON® LeafGuard gutter protection system. It’s the only seamless, one-piece gutter system on the market with a built-in hood cover. The cover is actually a structural component of the system – rather than an add-on – and it allows water to flow down into the gutter trough while leaves, twigs, and other debris are deflected away to ensure a clog-free system – guaranteed.
