If you don't have properly installed gutters, or worse, no gutters at
all, here are several major concerns that you should consider. In
fact, you may already see one or two of these problems around your home
already:
|
 |
Foundation Problems - The expansion and contraction
of the soil that surrounds your home is the number one reason for slab failure.
After a period of rainy weather, the soil around the perimeter of your home
expands as it becomes saturated with moisture. A dry, hot summer following
the rain can cause the soil around your foundation to contract and pull
away. As this cycle repeats, support to the foundation can be compromised
leading to cracked masonry as well as sticking doors and windows. |
A properly designed and installed gutter
system keeps the soil surrounding your home at a consistent moisture level
by directing runoff safely away from the house. |
| |
 |
Staining of Masonry and Siding - Rainwater cascading
off an unguttered roof will hit the ground with enough force to cause a
splashback. Within this splashback are dirt, grass and minerals that
end up on the exterior of your home. Over a short period of time,
a stain apopears that can be difficult to remove or hide. |
| |
|
 |
Damage to Landscaping - Plants, flowers, mulch and
soil located under the drip line of an unguttered roof can suffer from the
water runoff of a thunderstorm. Additionally, this runoff can result
in an overwatering condition that could permit harmful fungus to develop
as well as attract ants, roaches and termites. |
