5 Signs It’s Time to Upgrade Your Gutters

Gutters might not be the flashiest feature of your home, but they play a crucial role in protecting it. When they start to fail, small issues can quickly become costly repairs. If you've noticed some warning signs around your roofline or foundation, it's time to take a closer look.

Here are five clear signs your gutters need to be replaced:

1. Sagging Gutters – Gutters that droop or pull away from the roof can’t do their job. This usually means the fasteners have failed or the gutter is overloaded with debris and water.

2. Cracks, Holes, or Rust Spots – These weak points let water escape where it shouldn’t, potentially causing damage to siding, fascia boards, and even your home’s foundation.

3. Overflow During Rain – If you see waterfalls spilling over the edges during a storm, your gutters may be clogged or no longer sloped properly.

4. Pooling Water – Water that gathers around your home’s base can lead to erosion, basement leaks, and foundation problems.

5. Peeling Paint or Mildew – These are subtle signs that moisture is leaking where it shouldn’t, often behind the gutters.
