Why should you have gutters installed on your home or business?List Item 2
- A gutter system is a crucial component in protecting your property from water damage. Mobile is the rainiest area in the US averaging over 5 feet of rain annually. The amount of water shed from an average sized home in mobile is enough to fill over 3 swimming pools in a years time! That’s a lot of water & a major hazard to your home or business.
- Prevents/reduces moisture from absorbing into the compacted soil that supports the foundation of the home/business. This helps avoid costly structural damage, as well as prevent flooding of basements/crawl spaces.
- Enter/Exit your home/business without getting drenched from water cascading from the roof in even the lightest of rains.
- Stops the splashing of water onto the base of your home! Water pouring from your roof can cause a lot of headaches like stains, mold, mildew, water intrusion, rot at the base of windows/doors, rot to the base of siding, etc.
- Prevent/Reduce pests around your home/business that are drawn to moisture. ( cockroaches, termites, centipedes, silverfish, etc. )
- Helps eliminate erosion from concentrated storm water run off from an elevated surface destroying the ground below. Heavy rainfall can destroy delicate landscapes like flower beds. It can dig trenches and holes around the base of your home/business causing foundation failure as well.
- Concentrated amounts of rain water from your roof flowing across your lawn can make it tough to keep it healthy. It can strip vital nutrients, topsoil and chemicals like fertilizer away from your lawns root system. This can cause a bit of a snowball effect by creating bald spots that spread with no suitable soil to start new grass.
- Reduce your impact on the environment and our delicate coastal eco systems. Uncontrolled storm water washing chemicals like fertilizers and pesticides into our precious waterways can have some devastating effects. Algae blooms that suffocate sea life and contaminated drinking water are a real threat in our area. Additionally, sand, silt and debris displaced by fast moving storm water can contaminate waterways and storm drainage systems. This can be an infrastructure nightmare and impacts the entire community.
- Storm water moving across underground septic systems can create a real mess. Water leaching into a septic system can cause failure, collapse and possibly create back up into your home or business.
- Keep good relationships with your neighbors. Homes in neighborhoods have water issues that often cause issues for multiple homes within the community. Water moving across your property creating issues for a neighbor can certainly create tension. We offer neighborhood discounts to help keep the peace. If we are working in your neighborhood and one or more neighbors choose to have us perform work on their home, each homeowner will receive a discount.
- Cover dingy facia and beautify your home/business with a decorative gutter system that comes in a wide array of materials and colors.

- Poor maintenance! Gutters do so much for your home when properly maintained. Maintenance is pretty simple, just keep them clean. Clean and properly installed gutters provide your home with many years of protection.
