Why Are Gutter Systems Vital To A Home?

Think of a gutter system as a vital system (much like your plumbing or electrical systems).

Gutters are essentially an outdoor water management system.

If rain water can carve canyons in stone, then runoff water from your roof system can cause serious damage to your home in a variety of ways.

Let’s explore those ways:

  • Gutters can save your foundation over time:

    Erosion will destroy your foundation if the water is not controlled coming off your roof lines.

  • Gutters will save your landscaping:

    Uncontrolled water can wash out your landscaping and flood your yard.

  • Gutters can keep water out of your basement:

    If you have a stone or pervious foundation then water will work its way into your basement.

  • Gutters can save doors, sills, siding and trim:

    Your doors, sills, siding and trim all have potential for rot. If the water is not controlled it can lead to significant rot, leading to costly repairs.

With a professionally installed gutter system you can avoid all of these issues.
