There are 3 main aspects of your gutter system, gutters which collect the water, leaders (or downspouts) that distribute the water and the area where the drained water ends up.  Simple, yet many homeowners neglect the last and most important aspect.  Let’s just think about this for a minute…you are really good at cleaning the gutters and downspouts but during a heavy rain the gutters overflow and may cause mild to extreme damage.  Take a look at where all the water is going and where it ends up.  The idea is to make sure the water ends up at least 7-10 feet away from the fo ..read more
