When updating your home’s exterior with new stone facing, windows or paint, it’s important not to overlook your gutters and downspouts.
At Alliance Inc., we know gutters are important on a house because they help to collect and redirect rainwater away from the house’s foundation, preventing damage to the structure and surrounding landscape.
Without gutters, rainwater can seep into the ground around the foundation, leading to erosion, basement flooding, and structural damage over time. Gutters also help to protect the roof, siding, and windows from water damage.
You should replace your gutters when they show signs of damage or wear and tear, such as rust, cracks, holes, sagging, or separation from the roofline. If you notice water pooling around the foundation of your house or overflowing gutters during heavy rain, it may also be a sign that your gutters are not functioning properly and need to be replaced.
Updated gutters and downspouts can help with curb appeal by giving your home a fresh, updated look. New gutters and downspouts can be customized to match the style and color of your home, making them an attractive and functional addition to your exterior.
Additionally, well-maintained gutters and downspouts can help to prevent water damage to your home’s exterior, which can improve its overall appearance and value.
