Top 7 reasons you need seamless gutters for your house right now

Seamless gutters are an important feature to have on any home because they help to disperse rainwater to protect its exterior and foundation. In states that experience heavy yearly rainfall, such as Florida with 55 inches of rain per year, it is important for the long-term health of your home to invest in high-quality, seamless gutters.

Keep reading to learn the top 7 ways seamless gutters protect your home.

#1: Keep your house dry.

Seamless gutters help direct water away from your house by keeping places like your garage, basement and crawl spaces dry.

Seamless gutters can also help to limit moisture from entering through your doors and windows.

#2: Protect the foundation.

Seamless gutters can reduce the amount of water that enters your foundation wall, effectively protecting the structure of your home.

This is an important feature because water in your home’s foundation can cause structural damage, cracks in the walls and floors and issues with closing/opening doors and windows.

#3: Avoid topsoil erosion.

Rain water can cause the topsoil around your house to erode away, leaving the foundation of your house exposed and at risk for future damage. Seamless gutters can help prevent excessive soil erosion by directing water away from your house.

#4: Prevent leaks.

Durability issues can arise through windows and doors, which are often the weakest points of your home. By directing water away from the house, seamless gutters help prevent water intrusion coming in through these sensitive areas.

Seamless gutters only have joints at corners and downspouts, meaning the chance of leaks is greatly reduced. 

#5: Deter insects and mold.

Insects and mold thrive in standing water, which often accumulates around your house after it rains. Seamless gutters help reduce the amount of standing water around your house by directing the rain away.

#6: Extend longevity.

Besides extending the life of your home’s foundation, gutters also keep water away from your home’s rafters and roof joints which extends your home’s long-term durability. 

Seamless gutters are much less likely to clog, so they won’t stop working over time or crack due to pressure. They are also often made with stronger materials such as aluminum.

#7: Prevent splash-back.

Seamless gutters prevent splash-back, which occurs when water from the rain splashes dirt, grass and minerals onto the exterior of your home. Splash-back causes discoloration, which can be difficult to remove over time and damages the aesthetic and functional appeal of your home.
