Do Your Old Gutters Need Gutter Repair?

Old gutters is a relative term, but it’s a really good indication your gutters are old if they are:

  • Installed with spike and ferrule
  • Showing significant exterior color fade
  • Have seams along the run of the gutter

Often times we arrive to a job to check on repairs and we realize the client is in need of a gutter installation instead. If your gutters are leaking at the seams it may be time to update to seamless gutters. If your gutters were installed with spike and ferrule, this means they are likely 20 years old and you could also potentially have rotting fascia.

Detecting gutter issues early can help you avoid costly damage. If you notice water overflowing from your gutters during rain or see visible rust and corrosion, it’s a sign that your gutters might be failing and in need of gutter repair. Sagging or uneven gutters, often caused by debris buildup or trapped water, are also red flags. Check for peeling paint or water stains on your home’s exterior, as these can indicate water escaping from the gutters. Regular maintenance and timely gutter repair can extend the life of your gutters and protect your home.

Gutter Overflow: Do You Need Cleaning or Repairs?

Gutter overflow isn’t just a nuisance—it can lead to serious and expensive home damage, including water intrusion, basement flooding, and foundation deterioration. Addressing these issues early is key to preventing costly repairs.

If water is spilling over near a downspout, there’s likely a clog preventing proper drainage. A professional cleaning will remove debris and restore functionality.

Overflow in the middle of a gutter or at the opposite end of a downspout typically signals a structural issue that requires repairs or reinstallation. Possible causes include:

  • Incorrect gutter pitch
  • Undersized gutters
  • Insufficient downspouts
  • Sagging or detached gutters from wear or improper installation

Other warning signs include:

  • Water stains or cracks on siding or foundation
  • Pooling water near the base of your home
  • Overflow spilling from the front of the gutters or behind the fascia
  • Persistent dampness around underground drains, indicating a clog

Because diagnosing gutter problems can be tricky, a professional evaluation ensures the right fix.

Hail Damage and Your Gutter System

After a hailstorm, most homeowners inspect their roofs, but gutters are also vulnerable to dents, cracks, and misalignment. Left unaddressed, hail damage can compromise your entire drainage system. A professional inspection can help determine whether repairs or a full replacement are the most cost-effective option.

If you suspect hail damage, reach out to your insurance provider. Partnering with a roofing company can also provide a full assessment of your home’s storm damage. For added protection, installing durable gutter guards can help minimize future issues.

Severe weather—including hail, tornadoes, and heavy rain—can take a toll on your home’s exterior. If your roof has suffered damage, there’s a high likelihood your gutters have, too. The Brothers that just do Gutters specializes in hail damage repairs and serves storm-prone areas like Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, Colorado, and Nebraska. Our expert team can assess your gutters and provide the best repair or replacement options.
