Few people realize it, but gutters play quite an essential role for many houses. Yes, they do collect water from the roof so it does not drip all around the house. However, more importantly, gutters channel that water away from the house. Many wet basement problems can be solved simply by installing new gutters. And when wet basements have been eliminated, mold problems, musty odors and alike usually disappear with them. Basement waterproofing can be quite expensive. So before one does it, we usually recommend to give gutters a shot, because chances are, one will not be disappointed.
Gutters keep the water that falls on your roof from collecting near your foundation. If your gutters are leaking, it is usually a sign that seams have come loose or that a section of gutter has become corroded. Leaky gutters can be patched or repaired. Not only do gutters help direct water from the foundation (if installed correctly), they are also important for routing water away from walkways, where ice can build up and cause damage or create injury risk.
Installing gutters properly is usually enough to solve many problems. Even simple gutter repairs are often quite successful in resolving particular issues. However, all gutters should be maintained – cleaned regularly, unless of course, you have the lifetime guaranteed clog-free gutter guards.
