Gutter Repair Services
in Bloomington, IN, and Surrounding Areas
The purpose of gutter systems is to divert water away from structures, preventing water damage. At SureSeal, we do more than just repair gutters. We thoroughly inspect your home’s exterior for leaks, sagging, overflow, and pooling water. Ignoring these issues can lead to significant water damage to your property and home’s foundation. In addition to repairing gutters, our services include installing gutters and gutter guards.
Signs Your Gutters Need Repair
If you have old gutters, it may be time for a repair or replacement. Indicators that your gutters are outdated include:
- Installed with spike and ferrule
- Significant exterior color fade
- Seams along the gutter run
Sometimes, a gutter repair job reveals the need for a full gutter replacement. For example, leaking seams may require upgrading to seamless gutters. If your gutters were installed with spike and ferrule, they are likely 20 years old, and you might have rotting fascia.
Detecting gutter issues early can prevent costly damage. Look out for water overflowing during rain, visible rust or corrosion, sagging or uneven gutters, peeling paint, and water stains on your home’s exterior. These signs suggest failing gutters that may need repair. Contact us at (812) 219-9629 for a gutter repair consultation!
