Common Gutter Problems Explained
Gutters help direct rainwater away from the building. When debris accumulates or components become damaged, water may overflow or drain incorrectly. Understanding the likely cause can help you decide what action is needed.
Blocked Gutters
Leaves, moss, silt and other debris can obstruct rainwater flow.
Overflowing Gutters
Overflowing water may indicate a blockage, drainage issue or defect.
Water Around Walls
Poor rainwater drainage can contribute to moisture problems, although damp has several possible causes.
