Have you noticed that your gutters leak or overflow due to clogs within the system? Are your gutters unsightly and ragged in appearance, with dirt streaks and chipped paint? If so, you may be considering repairing, or even replacing your old system with new gutters. Before you do so, there are important factors to consider about each option.

Repairing your gutters may be a viable option in certain circumstances. This approach is more cost-effective than ripping out and replacing your entire gutter system. Also, if your gutters have just one issue, for example a leak near the downspout, then simply repairing your gutters may be the best choice for you, whether you hire a contractor or decide to take on the project by yourself. However, repairing your gutters is usually just a quick, temporary fix. If your gutters have experienced one problem, they are likely to encounter more issues in the future.

Typically, the best way to approach damaged or unattractive gutters is to opt for a replacement system. While this is costlier than simply repairing your gutters, it will likely save you money in the long run. Fixed gutters may only last for a few months, and will eventually require additional repairs. However, new gutters will provide improved performance and last for many years to come. The average lifespan of aluminum gutters is roughly between 20 and 30 years depending on quality.
