Aside from your gutter's visible damage, finding out when to replace is important to avoid further damage to your property, let us dive into some of the things to look out for.

• Detached or Uneven

  This is caused when gutters are overloaded with stagnant water or debris that may spill and infiltrate the roof and walls and may lead to dampness and mould growth.

• Water marks under the gutters

  Some people may look past this issue but this means that your gutters can no longer handle heavy downpours especially when it is not properly installed or it no longer meets your home's required proportions.

• Surrounding erosion

  Look around your property and see if you find signs of erosion after a heavy rain. Erosion from overflowing gutters can destroy plants and your outdoor landscaping.
