Six warning signs you need a gutter replacement

How to expertly detect if your gutters are damaged 

When inspecting your home for repairs, remember to investigate the exterior! While a gutter system can last over 20 years, it will not last forever. Gutter installation costs are a worthwhile investment for your home. Water damage is a common indication that your home needs a gutter cleaning and/or reparation. 

Our team at Moreno & Moreno specializes in the professional installation of seamless gutters. In this blog, we have identified six warning signs that indicate if a gutter replacement is necessary.

#1: Pools of water or mildew

If there is standing water or mildew near the home’s foundation, gutter replacement is imminent. It is important to address this problem quickly to prevent costly damage to your home’s foundation.

#2: Gutters are sagging

Sagging gutters are costly to repair. When sagging occurs, removing and replacing your gutters is your best option.

#3: You notice peeling paint on your facade

Peeling paint is a sign of constant moisture exposure. This is likely an indication of broken gutters. Conduct an inspection and consider gutter replacement based on what you see.

#4: Water damage or water marks directly beneath the gutters

Discoloration on the facade of your home can indicate water damage. Conduct an inspection right away and consider gutter replacement based on what you see.

#5: There are cracks and/or rust

Gaps, cracks, and rust can compromise the integrity of your gutters. If you notice rust, cracks, or frequent breaks in the seams between your gutters, you should think about replacing your gutters once and for all.

#6: Water is overflowing

Overflowing could be a sign of improperly installed or poorly designed gutters that are too narrow for your home. You should consider gutter replacement and seek the advice of a professional.
