Gutters                                                                  832-900-7726

Gutters keep the water that falls on your roof from collecting near your foundation. If your gutters are leaking, it is usually a sign that seams have come loose or that a section of gutter has become corroded. Leaky gutters can be patched or repaired by our Heights roofers.

Not only do gutters help direct water from the foundation (if installed correctly), they are also important for routing water away from walkways. Many older Houston homes have poorly designed water drainage system. The Heights roofing crew can consult with you about your water problems.

It is hard to imagine the extensive damage that can be caused by something as delicate as a leaf. Leaves can clog gutters and downspouts resulting in severe problems and expensive home repairs. The Heights roofers offer LEAFPROOF, the fastest growing gutter protection system sold in America. It is installed nationwide by more contractors than all other premium gutter protection products combined.

Common Gutter Problems
If your gutters are damaged, sagging, missing parts or improperly installed, it is unfortunate but likely exterior damage to your home is sure to follow. A gutter that is missing, or that drains too close to the house will saturate the ground. This wet saturated ground can produce a variety of problems. Wet saturated ground near your home can be easily and affordably prevented with a quality gutter system but left unchecked can: 

•  Create a breeding ground for mold and mildew. 
  
•  Eat away at foundations. 
  
•  Leaks and cracks will develop. 
  
•  Driveways and walkways will sink and rise, interior and exterior walls and floors can warp, bow or become wet, molded or stained. Unfortunately, entire homes have been destroyed due to water damage. 

Overflowing water:

Over the back of a clogged gutter - damage to exterior and interior (via the cavity) walls can occur and damp can result. The gutter should be checked for debris and blockages and the fascia brackets also checked as they may have been damaged, causing the gutter to sag.

Over the front of a clogged gutter - this can be very annoying, both to walk under and because of the noise it can create. If this is happening you should be considering Gutter Guards. Protection for your gutters will keep leaves, pine needles, acorns and other debris out, and maintain the clear flow of water to the downspout.

Leaking joints - the rubber seals inside the joint will probably need replacing, or sometimes the joint itself should be renewed.
