Three65 Spouting Advise on How to Tell If Your Gutter is Sick

Three65 Spouting is the gutter expert you need, and this month they advise on how to tell if your gutter is sick, and the first sign is cracked or rusted gutters. Both rust and cracks are notable signs that you need a guttering expert to come and take a look at your gutters. While a small crack or tiny amount of rust may not seem like an issue, they’ll both quickly turn into bigger problems.

Sagging gutters is one of the warning signs that’s easiest to spot, as you will easily be able to notice sagging gutters, without needing to climb up and inspect them. Gutters should never sag, but when water is accumulating and filling them up, they will inevitably become weighed down and slowly pull away from your home.

Sagging gutters are normally caused either by debris that’s causing blockage, a draining issue that’s not letting water down, or even a gutter system that’s not right for the home. In most cases, you can reduce the risk of your gutters sagging by using gutter guards, and regularly checking that water is draining from your gutters properly.

Clogs in your gutter system are the most common problem when it comes to gutters. Most people will be aware of the problems leaves and other debris can cause when they get into gutters, and clogs can also lead to pests making a home in your gutter and roof, leaks that damage the inside of your home, and structural damage to your guttering. Investing in gutter guards is essential for minimising the risk of clogs, but if clogs persist then you shouldn’t rule out more serious problems within your gutter system.

If the paint around your gutters is peeling, chipping or rotting, or if you’re seeing a lot of mould and mildew on the walls under your gutter system, it can be a sign of a larger problem with your gutters. Most of the time, clogs and other gutter problems will lead to this kind of exterior damage, so you can easily see when it’s time to finally replace those problem gutters.

If you’re experiencing one or a few of the warning signs mentioned here, it’s likely that it’s time you invest in a new gutter system that’ll do a better job protecting your home from water.
