Your Gutters Are Broken — Why Should You Care?
While a leaky gutter system may not seem like a big deal at first, ignoring the problem can lead to major headaches. This is because, when gutters break, water infiltrates areas of your property that should stay dry. The end result is a cracked foundation, a flooded basement, compromised windows, mold and mildew growth, and soil erosion — just to name a few. Potentially most concerning is if the rainwater backs up onto your roof. It can cause shingles and flashing to deteriorate prematurely, leading to costly roof repairs.
So, if you notice any problem with your gutters — sagging, leaking, rusting, or even missing parts — act swiftly and call The Gutter People. Our gutter repair technicians can provide the solutions necessary to restore your system’s performance and protect your investment.
Common Gutter Problems We Address
Not all gutter problems are immediately noticeable, but they can quickly become serious if left untreated. Thankfully, you can count on us for timely gutter repair services in Bryn Mawr, PA, and the Main Line. Since 1994, we’ve handled a wide range of common (and uncommon) issues homeowners have faced with their gutter systems, and we’re ready to roll up our sleeves and get to work resolving your problem.
Call us at any point if you notice any of the following:
- Sagging Gutters: Over time, nails, fasteners, and brackets can work loose, leaving gutters unable to direct water properly. We can renail or resecure gutters to restore stability.
- Broken Leaders: Sometimes, the reason your gutters can’t work properly is because the leaders — the vertical pipes that carry water from the gutters to the ground — are broken, misaligned, or detached. These problems can result in water pooling near your foundation. The good news is that our repair technicians can easily wrangle the leaders back into place.
- Leaking Gutters: Small cracks or holes may allow water to escape, which can cause damage to siding, fascia boards, and the ground below. At The Gutter People, we expertly seal and repair leaks so that water stays within the gutter system and flows smoothly to the downspouts. So, if you see your gutter leaking water, don’t climb on a ladder to fix the problem — call us right away.
- Pitch Problems: Gutters must be angled correctly to allow water to flow toward the downspouts. If improperly pitched, water will stagnate, leading to rust, sagging, or leaks. Our team can adjust and re-pitch your gutters to ensure optimal water flow.
- Damaged Downspouts: If downspouts are clogged, disconnected, or improperly positioned, they can lead to overflowing gutters and water pooling near your foundation. Our rain gutter repair team will inspect, clear, and reattach or replace downspouts as needed for proper drainage.
- Faulty Fascia: When fascia boards rot or become damaged, they compromise the structural integrity of your gutters. Without a secure attachment point, gutters may sag or pull away from the house. We address fascia issues by replacing damaged boards and ensuring a solid, lasting foundation for your gutter system.
- Clogs: Leaves, twigs, and debris can accumulate and create blockages in your gutter system. This forces water to spill over, damaging siding and landscaping. If you suspect your gutters are clogged, we can provide professional gutter cleaning to restore the flow of water.
When Is It Time for a Gutter Replacement Instead of a Repair?
Sometimes, repairs simply aren’t enough. But how do you know when it’s time to stop fixing your old gutters and start fresh with a new installation? There are a few key indicators. If your gutters are rusting through in multiple spots or show signs of widespread corrosion, your gutters are past their prime, and you will need to replace the entire system. Additionally, if you experience recurring leaks and clogs even after professional repairs, the system may be too compromised to function properly, and you could save money by investing in a new gutter installation.
The Gutter People can help you determine the best course of action. If repairs will get the job done, we’ll make it happen. If replacement is the smarter choice, we can guide you through that process, too. Our priority is to provide solutions that safeguard your home and deliver long-term value.
