Why Are Gutters Important?
Understanding why gutters are important can save you thousands of dollars because gutters can prevent costly damage to your home. While gutters may not be the most glamorous topic in the world to think about or to manage they are still an important part of home ownership.
All of this rain can be extremely harmful in a variety of different ways. Here are just a few of the problems that can arise when you don’t have any gutters, or if your gutters are improperly installed or maintained.
Clogged or damaged gutters can cause leaks in your basement. Moisture can also penetrate the slab or foundation to create extremely costly repairs. The average foundation repair starts at $10,000. The rain can also erode the soil around your home. This can be very destructive to your landscaping.
Without gutters, rainfall can also make a mess of the surface of your home. When it rains hard, the dirt splashes back onto the home itself, contributing to a dirty, unkempt look.
The problems don’t just stay inside either. Without gutters, the water can hit your windows, finding its way inside through tiny cracks and crevices. Window leaks can be miserable during a storm.
The water can also work its way into the walls where mold and mildew might grow. The water damage may even be visible inside of your home, creating unsightly brown water stains on your walls. If you have siding, the water can get in the gaps in your siding. Mold can grow there as well.
If you have any painted surface, water damage to the paint can result in it peeling much faster, requiring you to repaint the surface far sooner than you’d otherwise have to.
All of these damages will require still more costly repairs.
In other words, the cost of not having or not maintaining your gutters can far exceed the price of just getting and maintaining gutters in the first place.
