When Is It Time To Replace My Gutters?

If you gutters are leaking, clogging, or detaching from the bases and supports, it could be that they only need some minor repairs.

However, faulty installation in the first place often causes early and unnecessary damage to gutters, and this is why homeowners sometimes find themselves replacing a gutter system surprisingly quickly.

A few ways to make sure that replacement is as rare as possible:

Have the system installed by a professional.

Have the system cleaned at least once per year--preferably just before autumn, the season of heaviest debris accumulation.

It also doesn't hurt to check on them midway through winter, just in case there has been some ice buildup.

What Will The Replacement Cost Me?

It mostly depends on the materials.

Our contractors can help you choose from aluminum, wood, and copper gutters, as well as from the various styles of gutter guards.

If there are other major repairs necessary because of damage caused, such as flooding or trauma to the foundation, the price could rise quickly, but those cases are extreme.

You should be able to replace the system for anywhere between $75 and $500.

Is Future Gutter Replacement Unnecessary?

Not in every case.

Gutter guards, also called rain guards or gutter protectors, can help prevent heavy buildup of ice and debris within the gutters themselves.

However, if the gutters are installed properly, many people find the guards unnecessary and expensive.

Plus, if you don't get the right kind of guard for the type of debris common to your home's environment, the guards themselves can become clogged and lead to the same flooding and damage caused by a broken or rusty gutter.

It's probably best to consult your contractor before installing new gutters, to see if gutter guards would be helpful in your situation.

How To Care For Your New Gutters

Have them cleaned regularly.

Whether you do it yourself or call a professional, they should be checked for leaves and buildup at least once per year.

Cleaning doesn't necessarily involve climbing to dangerous heights.

There are tools available for reaching, scrubbing, and spraying gutters, and a Cunningham Contractor can educate you on your options.

It is also a good idea to have the gutters inspected every couple of years just to make are that nothing has fallen out of place or begun to rust.

The earlier these problems are caught, the more quickly they can be repaired, and the less likely you are to have to replace the system again.
