Why Do Gutters Affect the Roof Itself?
Gutters affect the roof itself because when they block or sag, water backs up at the roof edge instead of leaving it. That standing water works under the bottom course of shingles, rots the fascia behind the gutter, and in winter gives ice dams somewhere to start. A lot of roof edge damage begins as a gutter problem.
When Do Gutters Need Repair or Replacement?
Gutters need repair or replacement when water spills over the front during rain, they pull away from the fascia, they sag between brackets, or staining runs down the siding. Plants growing in a gutter mean it has been full long enough to hold soil.
- Water spilling over the front in rain
- Gutters pulling away from the fascia
- Sagging sections or standing water inside
What Gutter Services Do You Provide?
Courtland Roofing provides four gutter services: installing new systems, repairing and re-hanging existing ones, replacing damaged sections, and clearing blockages. We also repair the wood behind a gutter when water has already got into it, which is common on any gutter that has been overflowing for a season or two. Doing the roof edge and the drainage together is the point, because water that cannot leave the roof cleanly ends up behind the shingles.
- New gutter and downspout installation
- Repairs, re-hanging and re-sloping
- Gutter guards on tree-heavy properties
- Fascia repair where water has already caused rot
How Do You Approach Gutter Work?
Gutter work starts by checking the fall, because a gutter that does not slope correctly will pool no matter how clean it is. Then we look at whether the downspouts actually move water away from the foundation, and at the condition of the fascia they are fixed to, since hanging new gutters on rotten wood solves nothing.
- Check the fallA level gutter holds water instead of moving it. Getting the fall right along the whole run is what makes a gutter work, and it is the part most often got wrong.
- Check the fasciaNew gutters on rotten fascia will not stay up.
- Size the downspoutsEnough outlets, discharging away from the foundation.
- Hang and testRun water through and watch where it actually goes.
