| 10 reasons why you need guttering: |
- Moisture control – Keep basements, crawl spaces, and garages, dry and free of conditions that support mold and wood fungi growth by controlling roof drainage.
- Foundation protection – Limit the movement of active zone soils underneath the foundation by reducing the amount of water that enters at the foundation wall.
- Protect back-fill – Topsoil around the foundation is the weakest link in foundation moisture control. Preventing topsoil erosion can help prevent future structural damage.
- Shield windows and doors – Most durability issues arise from bulk water intrusion through windows and doors. Roof drainage will direct water away from sensitive areas.
- Protect plants and shrubs – Standing water in flowerbeds around the home can permit harmful plant fungi to develop as well as attract ants, roaches, and termites.
- Protects fascia – Water migration may cause rotting and insects that can be costly to repair. Quickly moving water away from rafter and roof joints is essential to a homes long-term durability.
- Increase roof overhang – Rain gutters can add up to 6” of protective roof overhang providing additional shielding of windows and doors, improving drying times and moisture levels.
- Prevents splash back – Rain gutters keep siding and masonry looking new by preventing splash back of dirt, grass and minerals that stain the exterior and can be difficult removing overtime.
- Decorative detail – Rain gutters can accentuate the architecture of any home. Products are available in various styles, colors, and metals. Rain gutters are for looks and function.
- Rainwater collection – Collecting rainwater is the simplest way to water your lawn, plants, and foundation all the while contributing to state water conservation goals.
