Importance of gutters.
Without gutters you could wind up with a long list of serious and costly damages.
This is important in that rainwater doesn t build up beneath the roof structure.
To divert water away from your home.
Heavy rains can wreak havoc on your home especially your siding windows doors and foundation.
Gutters also keep your roofing shingles in good condition.
This may be partly due to the illusion that a home is a single solid structure.
Sitting water up against your home can damage your paint and trim.
Gutters preserve your homes appearance and landscape design you ve worked hard to lay your mulch and give your house a fresh coat of paint so make sure you have a functioning gutter system to keep your home looking polished.
If it does it damages your roofing material and leads to roof leaks.
Why gutters are one of the most important parts of your home if you re like most homeowners you probably don t think about your rain gutters often or realize what an important role they play in keeping your home and property safe from water damage.
All of this rain can be extremely harmful in a variety of different ways.
They re especially important here in florida with our heavy rainfalls.
Gutters that are free from debris allow rainwater to flow through.
Millions of feet of gutter are installed each year throughout the country yet there is very little information available to educate or guide consumers when they re installing or replacing gutters.
