Gutters in Springfield, Va.

You may not realize it, but it rains a lot in Springfield, Va. In fact, it rains an average of 43.6 inches every year! That translates to 87,000 gallons of water running off your roof. And that total doesn't include the seven inches of snow and ice that fall in the winter.

With such a significant amount of water falling on your home, a properly functioning gutter system is tantamount to a well maintained home.  Otherwise, your home is at risk for damages.

Gutter Inspections

During a gutter inspection, a trained professional will look for specific problems with your gutter system and recommend a remedy. Problems might include:

• Rust
• Dents
• Sags
• Leaks,
• Clogs
• Disjointed sections

Any of these problems can prevent your gutter system from working properly, and that causes problems in other areas of your home. When water doesn't flow away from your home properly, it can cause water leaks to the interior of your home. That leads to water damage and potentially dangerous mold growth.
