Gutter Service

Ignoring Gutter Problems never ends well

How did this happen?

This is the result of the a homeowner who:

  • Didn’t see the need for an an annual roof and gutter inspection
  • Didn’t see the need to have his gutters cleaned and power sprayed quarterly
  • Didn’t see the need to spend the extra money for gutter guards

 

Don’t let this be you. It can be very costly over time.

It is estimated that up to 46% of the homes in the southern end of Atlanta have gutters that are either not the correct sizing or do not have the proper drainage needed for their roof.

Most of these homes were built pre 1970, before many of the effective solutions for drainage were developed.

Many homes in neighborhoods like College Park, East Point and most of Southern Atlanta have big beautiful pine trees. While these trees are beautiful, they can reek havoc on your gutter system.

Over time, if not attended to, you start seeing your investment look exactly like this picture.

Bi-Annual Gutter Maintenance

Get the peace of mind knowing that your gutter system is operating at it’s peak efficiency by properly maintaining them twice per year.

We here at Southern Construction and Roofing will schedule you for preventative maintenance and notify you when it’s time for your next checkup

We start by cleaning out all of those pine needles, dirt and leaves trapped in your gutter system. We do this for the entire system including your downspouts

Standing water is a magnet for mosquitoes and other critters. We will test your gutters and downspouts for any angles that need to be adjusted or repaired. This is done by ensuring that water flows freely throughout the system

Small holes and cracks can be a clear sign of bigger problems to come if not attended to. We will check your gutter system for these small issues and recommend the proper solution. Most small holes , leaks and cracks can be easily repaired preventing further damage and expense

We will check each section of gutter and downspout to ensure that all fasteners and nails are secure to your home. Over time fasteners loosen due to heavy storms along with a few other factors.

We inspect your fascia and soffit for hidden water damage caused by overflowing or clogged gutters. Water damage in these areas can cause significant rot, mold and mildew over time
