With a long average lifespan, gutters aren’t replaced often but here are a few tale-tell signs that your gutters should be evaluated for replacement.
- Often leak at joints
- There are visible cracks in the gutters
- The gutters are pulling away from the roof or look misaligned
- If you have a basement, you find flooding or water build-up
- For metal gutters you see rust forming or paint peeling
Sometimes your gutters could be clogged. So it’s important to get a professional evaluation to truly know the state of your gutters to help avoid potential water damage.
