Protect Your Home From Rainwater With Gutters From Lowe’s

A gutter system drains water away from your home’s structure, protecting siding, windows, doors and foundations from costly damage. When installing gutters, making sure you have all the right parts is key. Lowe’s is here to supply you with all the tools and supplies you need to ensure your rain gutters do what they’re supposed to do once they’re up.

Gutter Components
A gutter system is made up of various parts, and every piece is crucial to it working properly. Gutter connectors join gutter sections together, like gutter to corner, with options that fit traditional- and contemporary-style gutters. The downspout is the piece that is attached to the side of the home and channels runoff to the ground, away from your home. You’ll need drop outlets to connect the gutters to the downspouts. Gutter hangers and gutter brackets allow gutters to attach to a house’s eaves, offering support and strength to the front edge. Gutter end caps close off the ends of gutters, keeping debris and water from flowing out at this point. Other pieces include elbows, gutter extensions and gutter flashing.

Types of Gutters
Sectional gutters are sold in pieces and include a lot of the components mentioned above. If you’re thinking of installing gutters yourself, this is a good option to consider.

Seamless gutters are single gutters customized to fit along your roofline. Because these don’t have connection points or seams, there’s less of a chance the gutters will develop leaks as they weather the rain.

Keeping Gutters Clean
It’s not the most favorable chore when it comes to homeownership, but if your house has tall trees around it or you notice a clogged gutter, you’ll need to clean your gutters out so they stay in good condition. Lowe’s carries gutter cleaning tools to help with maintenance, like gutter scoops and gutter guard brushes. You can also add gutter covers to make upkeep easier. Also known as leaf guards or gutter guards, these prevent leaves, branches and other debris from getting inside the gutter where they can cause buildup and clogs. With these in place, gutters continue functioning properly and are protected from potential damage caused by debris.

Gutter Repair

Knowing when to repair your gutters can help prevent water damage to your home. If the gutters are overflowing, they may simply need a quick cleaning, but if they’re clogged over a long period of time, they may start to sag and pull away from the house, allowing water to reach the foundation. You’ll need to have them reattached or have new sections installed. If you notice leaks, it’s time to repair the gutters with sealant, and if an entire section is damaged it’s best to replace it.
