Gutters

Gutters provide an important function in keeping your home safe from water damage. Rainwater flowing off your roof and down the sides of your home can lead to mold, wood rot and numerous other problems.

How does a rain gutter help in solving these issues? A rain gutter holds all the water that comes down off the roof and sends it to the nearest downspout to be released away from your house. This prevents water from rotting out your fascia boards or running down the side of the house.

Windows on Washington can design and install a gutter system, complete with leaf protection, to keep your gutters functioning efficiently and minimize maintenance. As always, your satisfaction is guaranteed.

FAQ

Q. Do I really need to clean my gutters or make sure that they function properly?

A. Absolutely. Clogged or poorly flowing gutters can lead to roof leaks, foundation leaks, rotted framing, and mold to name just a few.

Q. I just got new gutters but do not have caps on them. Is there something that I can do to keep the leaves out of them?

A. Yes. Windows on Washington can install leaf protection that can help eliminate vegetation and debris from getting clogged in your gutters.

Q. Do gutter caps work for everyone?

A. No. Some homes have roofs that are too steep for gutter caps to work effectively and heavy rainfalls can sometimes overcome the cap’s ability to direct the water into the gutters.
