Failing gutters can cause serious water damage to your roof, siding, and foundation. Watch for these warning signs:
If you see puddles forming near your home's foundation after rain, your gutters may be clogged, damaged, or improperly pitched.
Gutters that sag or separate from the fascia board are overloaded with debris or water, and need immediate attention.
Cracks, holes, or rust spots allow water to leak behind gutters, causing damage to siding, soffit, and fascia boards.
Orange or dark staining below gutters, or peeling paint on your home's exterior, indicates chronic water overflow issues.
