Gutter Worries Away with Roofs By Don

Let’s be honest, common gutter problems are as consistent in our lives as the traffic in downtown Atlanta. But, just like the traffic, there’s always a solution if you hitch a ride with the right expert. Stop aimlessly researching ‘problems with gutter guards’ or ‘gutter drainage problems’ and let Roofs By Don be your guide through this raindrop of confusion.

We assist both commercial and residential clients, and trust us, we’ve seen it all from congested gutters to malfunctioning raindrop gutter guards. Let’s unravel some of these pesky problems together, shall we?

A Symphony of Silt: Sediment Build Up

The commonest of common gutter problems? The Good’ol buildup of miscellaneous silt and debris. Picture this: Over time, gusts of wind can carry seeds, leaves, and dust into your gutters which may cause a build-up so monumental it would make Everest blush.

Guess what else happens when this debris accumulates and dries? You’ve got your very own fire hazard right above your beautiful home or establishment. And let’s not even start on the mosquito fiesta that starts when the rainwater has nowhere to go but stagnate.

Winter Woes: Frost and Ice Dams

Think your gutters are safe in winter? Think again! Frost has a sly tactic of sneaking into your gutters, and before you know it, snowflakes are not the only Ice Queens in town.

These ice dams block your gutters, preventing meltwater from draining properly and often leading to water seeping into your roof. The outcome? Water damage to your property faster than you can say ‘is it spring yet?’.

Passionate Protectors: Problems with Gutter Guards

Ever find yourself edgy thinking ‘how can there be problems with gutter guards?’ They’re installed for protection, right? Well, while gutter guards do protect against larger detritus, smaller stuff like seeds and grit can slip through, making you wonder if your gutter guards are out to get you.

Don’t be hasty to ‘cancel’ your gutter guards just yet. They just need a little TLC (Tender Loving Cleaning), and they’ll be back to guarding your gutters like dutiful sentinels.

When it Rains, it Pains: Raindrop Gutter Guard Issues

Raindrop gutter guards are like the cool new kids in school who everyone wants to hang out with. But unfortunately, every star sometimes falters.

Issues with clogging or improper installation leading to slippage under heavy rain can cause these marvels to experience some teen angst. But fear not, just as troubled teens can be understood with a little patience, raindrop gutter guard issues can also be smoothly solved.
