Southern Nevada can experience strong rains and winds. Every few years, El Niño brings above-normal rain, wind, and overall wild weather. The first line of defense against these conditions is a clean, well-designed water runoff system. This includes intact gutters and an appropriately sloped roof to prevent water pooling and leaks, which can lead to costly repairs.
Before the rainy season begins, property owners should conduct a thorough roof and gutter inspection. Many gutter systems may only need cleaning or minor repairs. However, if your rain gutters are aging or failing, it may be time to install replacement rain gutters. A proper inspection can help assess their condition.
Damage, Leaks, or Mold Could Indicate Defective Gutters
Whether you inspect your gutters yourself or hire a professional, certain signs indicate that replacement may be necessary:
- Standing water in your gutters.
- Mold in your basement, attic, or walls.
- Signs of erosion in your lawn or landscaping.
- Standing puddles of water around your home after rain.
- Rust, loose fittings, or sagging gutters.
- Holes, cracks, or significant wear and tear.
Cleaning and Repairing Your Rain Gutters
Regular inspection and cleaning are essential for maintaining your gutters. Here are some steps to take before the rainy season:
- Begin cleaning near the downspout, removing debris like leaves and twigs with a hand tool.
- Inspect gutters visually for damage and clear finer debris with a garden hose.
- Check for holes, cracks, loose joints, or signs of wear and tear.
For damaged gutters, it’s best to hire a professional roofer for repairs to ensure proper installation and functionality.
Types of Replacement Gutters
If your gutters are beyond repair, replacement is a wise option. Popular materials include:
- Aluminum: Durable, rust-resistant, and cost-effective.
- Copper and zinc: Decorative and highly durable.
- Galvanized steel: Strong and weather-resistant.
