Gutters might not be seen as important but get gutters wrong and damage to your property can ensue, leaving the property looking old, tired, and leaving you with costly repairs. Get them right, and your gutters not only protect your property from damage but they are an understated cosmetic addition to the overall aesthetics of your home.
Gutters are troughs that are connected to the edge of a rooftop and guide away rain water. As rain falls onto a pitched roof it moves down and into the canal where it is flows to a downpipe. The gutter is designed to move water or debris to the ground and away from your house to protect it.
Without guttering your property is vulnerable to water damage to the roof structure or fascia and soffit. If rain water was to accumulate in one area on the ground it could also weaken the foundations which would then lead to costly damage to your home or business. Gutters are hardly noticed until they go wrong, but with the right gutters they are the unsung heroes of your home!
To ensure that you don’t have to worry about the pitter-patter of rain on your roof you do need to regularly maintain your gutters. Leaves, debris, and other material can block up the gutter and must be removed so that water flows effectively.
