Gutters are an often-overlooked, but essential, part of a roofing system. Consisting of troughs and downspouts, the system diverts rain, melted snow and melted ice away from the roof, siding and foundation, preventing issues like water damage, rot, leaks and mold growth. Poland Roofing and Siding LLC commits itself to being the Columbus area’s go-to for reliable roofing services, including gutter repair, installation and replacement.
We install high-quality aluminum seamless gutters. Due to aluminum’s superior strength and durability and the minimal use of joints and seams in a seamless system, this design offers a few advantages including:
Although they should withstand harsh conditions for a long time, gutters are not impervious to damage over time, which can come from pests, violent storms or deterioration. Whatever the nature of the problem, a faulty gutter system cannot adequately protect your property. Some signs you need gutter repair or replacement include the following.
Paint on the gutter protects the underlying metal from the elements. Besides being unattractive, peeling paint exposes the metal to air and moisture, leaving it vulnerable to rust. Rusted sections can corrode, creating holes where rainwater can leak. Usually, rust and corrosion occur in older systems and signal it is time to invest in new gutters.
Fasteners, which secure the gutter to the roofing fascia, can corrode over time. This can cause the gutters to sag, creating gaps where water can seep into the roof underlayment, where it can contribute to mold growth and rot. While a roofer can replace a single component, if the damage is widespread, gutter replacement might be necessary.
When debris clogs the gutters, it can prevent them from channeling water effectively to the downspouts. This can cause facets to buckle and break or separate at the seams. Pests and fallen tree branches can have a similar effect. Although a roofer can repair a single section, if multiple facets have damage or if the system is older, replacement might be more cost effective.
