Six Inch Gutters

Protects Your Foundation

Without gutters, rainwater runs directly off the roof and pools around the base of the house. Over time this can:

Erode soil around the foundation
Cause foundation cracks or settling
Shorten your roof system lifespan by causing damage to roof edges, shingles, and rotting fascia boards

Gutters channel water away from the house through downspouts.

Prevents Soil Erosion and Landscape Damage

Heavy runoff from the roof can wash away:

Mulch
Plants
Topsoil around your home

Gutters direct water away so your landscaping stays intact.

Protects Walkways and Entryways

Without gutters, water falls directly from the roof edge and can:

Create slippery areas near doors
Cause puddles on patios or sidewalks
Contribute to ice buildup in colder climates
