Gutter repair services step-by-step
The most common gutter problems needing repairs to get your gutters functioning as they should be are: sagging or pulling away of a gutter, out-of-pitch gutters, leaky gutter seams, and leaky or loose downspouts. While many gutter problems can be resolved with a thorough cleaning, there are times when a repair is needed. We offer a wide range of gutter repairs, with the expertise to identify and fix any issue.
One of the frequent types of repairs involves the erosion of gutter sealant at the joints. This issue is usually identified by water dripping or flowing at those specific locations. Our solution for this repair is to meticulously prepare the affected surface by using a combination of chemical cleaning and thorough sanding, followed by the application of a top-quality, specially formulated gutter sealant to ensure a durable, robust seal.
As time passes, gutters that are burdened with weight can gradually detach from your home, leading to water runoff from your roof to overflow behind the back edge of your gutter. To address this issue, we reinforce the gutter with sturdy gutter hangers to make it more stable against your house. Additionally, we ensure that the entire length of the back edge is securely sealed to prevent any water from seeping behind the gutter.
Downspouts are an essential part of any gutter system, as they direct rainwater away from your home’s roof and foundation. However, over time, downspouts can become damaged. There are several types of downspout repairs and repair solutions available, including patching and sealing, and partial as well as full replacement. If the damage is severe, replacement may be necessary, which involves removing the old downspout and installing a new one. Regular maintenance and inspection can help prevent the need for downspout repairs and prolong the life of the gutter system.
Inadequate pitch resulting from age or improper installation may cause gutters to overflow in the opposite direction of the downspout, leading to ineffective water flow and inadequate drainage away from your residence. Our service entails dismounting your gutter and repositioning it with a proper downward slope to optimize water flow and ensure efficient drainage.

Some signs that your gutter may need repairs include water pooling around the foundation of your home, sagging or drooping gutters, visible cracks or holes in the gutters, and gutters that are pulling away from the roofline. If you notice any of these issues, it's best to call a professional to assess and repair your gutter system.
While minor repairs such as reattaching loose hangers or patching small holes can be done by homeowners, it's generally not recommended for homeowners to attempt more extensive repairs themselves. Repairing or replacing sections of gutter or fixing damage to the roofline requires specialized knowledge and tools that most homeowners do not possess. Attempting these repairs on your own can also be dangerous, as working on a ladder or on the roof without proper safety precautions can result in falls and injuries. It's best to hire a professional gutter repair service to ensure the job is done safely and correctly.
The time taken for gutter repair depends on the extent of the damage and the complexity of the repair work required. Minor repairs can usually be completed in a few hours, while more significant repairs may take a day or two.
