Gutter Repair Services

Maintaining your gutter system is an integral part of protecting your home and keeping its landscaping in top condition. If it’s not functioning optimally, you could face issues like overflowing gutters, basement flooding, ice dams and more if left neglected.

Gutters that become clogged and overflowing can rot the fascia board, damaging the foundation. Repairs may be necessary in order to avoid future issues.

Gutter Cleaning & Repair

Maintaining gutter cleanliness is paramount to minimizing water damage risk. Clogged gutters not only stop rainwater from draining away from your home, but they can also become breeding grounds for insects and rodents. If left untreated, standing water may seep into the foundation and lead to other issues like mold and mildew growth.

Gutters are designed to channel rainwater away from your roof and other vulnerable parts of your house that could sustain water damage. If these parts become flooded, water damage repairs could be extensive and costly.

Regularly inspect your gutters to prevent clogs, cracks and troughs that could allow water to seep under the fascia boards. Furthermore, check for damage on the downspouts; if there is a crack or broken part of it, replace it immediately in order to avoid water damage.

If your gutters have started to rust or the troughs have come loose from the fascia board, it’s time for professional repair. Doing this could save you a considerable amount of money in the long run since you won’t have to replace fascia or troughs later on.

Cleaning Costs

The length of your gutters will influence the cost, as it takes more labor to clean longer gutters. Furthermore, costs for gutter cleaning tend to go up when there is more debris and/or when temperatures become wetter.

Gutter cleaners typically charge higher prices for homes with taller roofs and steeper slopes, as the task of clearing the gutters on such a property can be more laborious and hazardous, as accessing them from above may prove challenging.

Professional gutter cleaners can quickly identify the source of any overflow issues and take action to have your gutters cleaned promptly. Doing this prevents further overflows from occurring and reduces the risk of water damage to your property.

Repair Or Replace Sections of Copper Gutters

Gutters are an integral part of any home, so it’s essential to keep them in good condition. Gutters help direct water away from a roof’s foundation so water doesn’t seep into your house’s foundation. When gutters become damaged, homeowners should have them repaired promptly so that their systems can continue working optimally and avoid needing gutter replacement down the line.

Copper gutters are a popular choice among homeowners as they add beauty and durability to the exterior of a house. Furthermore, copper gutters give off an unique aesthetic, increasing curb appeal.

Improperly pitched Gutters Deck

A properly pitched gutter is a home owner’s best friend and can save them considerable money in the long run. Not only that, but an eye-catching feature of any building with well-positioned gutters also enhances curb appeal while saving water off roofs, away from siding, and out of basements or garages. But for any job to be done correctly the first time around, several other components need to be considered: size and placement of the gutter itself, proper component sizes/positioning/internal plumbing components etc..

When it comes to gutter pitch, the ideal level should be about one quarter inch of slope per 10 feet. To determine this, get on a ladder after some heavy rainfall and inspect both locations of downspouts as well. With an upright ladder in good working order and clear gutters that aren’t clogged with leaves or other debris, you should be able to do most of the work yourself; but if not, call us today for assistance!

Fascia Board And Soffit Repair And Replacement

You can tell if your soffit and fascia boards need replacing by looking for cracks, bowing or peeling wood. Furthermore, look for signs of animal damage or termite damage.

Fascia boards are used to secure the edge of the roof and keep moisture out of attic spaces. They also help keep animals like squirrels and rats from climbing into your attic to seek refuge.

Your soffit and fascia boards are essential for keeping water out of your house, which could result in costly damage to its foundation. Furthermore, these boards keep your house warm and dry by sealing off the exterior walls.

Soffit and fascia boards come in a range of materials, such as wood, PVC or aluminum. Ultimately, the choice depends on your home’s climate and budget; each material works best for one type over another.

Soffit boards are typically constructed from wood and painted or stained to match your siding. Alternatively, vinyl or composite soffit are popular options as well.

Soffit and fascia boards may not be visible from street level, but they are essential components of your home’s roof system that protect it from moisture damage.

They hold your rain gutters securely in place and protect the edges of your roof. If they become damaged or need replacing, contact Pro Home Construction for prompt, professional service.

If your soffit or fascia is beginning to rot, it is best to replace them completely rather than trying to repair the board yourself. Doing so could cause more serious issues such as leaks and mold in other parts of your home.

Replacing your soffit and fascia is an inexpensive, fast, and simple project that can improve the exterior of your home. However, in order to access the new board you may need to remove the old board first.

Replacing a fascia board is not a particularly complex task, but it may require the assistance of another person to ensure you do not damage your rain gutters. If you’re unsure how to proceed, hiring a handyman for this task could be ideal.
