We can assist you with a number of gutter services, including gutter replacement.
Gutters help protect your property from water damage by diverting rainfall away from the roof and foundation. However, they can deteriorate over time, which eventually leads to a need for gutter replacement. In and around the Tampa, Florida area, our team at Wayne Gonzalez Roofing Contractor, Inc.—working in conjunction with Baxley Gutters and Aluminum—can assist you with several gutter services, including replacement.
You might be wondering what signs indicate a need for gutter replacement. Looking out for the following can help you assess when to give our team a call.
- Cracks, Holes, and Rust: The most obvious indication that your gutters require replacement is visible deterioration. Cracks, holes, and rust spots can prohibit gutters from performing effectively. When water pours through broken portions, it can lead to structural damage to your property’s roof and foundation. If you notice these things, contact our team to have your gutters assessed right away.
- Sagging or Pulling Away from the House: Gutters that sag or pull away from the fascia boards are often clogged with dirt or water. If you examine your gutters and notice they are not correctly aligned or hang loosely, it’s important to contact our team, as water will not flow efficiently, causing water damage to your roofline and foundation.
- Overflowing or Pooled Water: If your gutters overflow during a thunderstorm, it is usually due to blockages or degradation that inhibits effective drainage. This could also mean that your gutters are not appropriately sized for your home or that they have become warped over time—both of which might require gutter replacement. Pooling water at the base of your home, particularly near the foundation, is a huge red flag since it can cause soil erosion, foundation cracks, and basement flooding.
- Peeling Paint and Water Stains: Water stains on the exterior of your property or flaking paint near your gutters indicate that water is not being diverted properly. This can cause more damage to your siding and trim, requiring costly repairs if not addressed immediately.
