Leading Causes of Gutter System Water Damage
Roof Runoff Volume Exceeds Capacity
Large roofs can shed more water than a single downspout can handle in heavy rain.
Heavy Rainfall and Storm Events
Heavy storms send more roof water than clogged or small downspouts can carry.
Frozen Downspouts in Cold Climates
Ice can block downspouts, so meltwater backs up and spills over the gutter edge.
Landscape Grading Toward the House
Soil that slopes toward the house lets downspout water run back to the foundation.
