FAQs
Why should I replace my gutters instead of just patching leaks?
A worn-out gutter system can cause hidden water damage to fascia boards, soffits, siding, and even your foundation. Patching holes only treats the symptom, not the underlying issues such as sagging sections, improper pitch, rust, or undersized downspouts. A full replacement ensures that water is channeled safely away from your Old Fort home, prevents costly structural repairs, and complies with current building codes.
How can I tell if my Old Fort home’s gutters need to be replaced?
Common warning signs include frequent overflows during moderate rain, visible gaps at the seams, peeling exterior paint near gutters, mold or mildew on siding, water stains in the attic, and sections that pull away from the roofline. If your gutters are over 20 years old, made from thin aluminum, or have been repeatedly repaired, a professional inspection from Line of Defense Roofing is the best way to confirm whether replacement is the most cost-effective solution.
What types of gutters does Line of Defense Roofing install?
We offer seamless K-style and half-round gutters in aluminum, steel, and copper. Seamless aluminum is the most popular for its balance of affordability and durability, while steel provides added strength in heavily wooded areas. Copper delivers unmatched longevity and a classic aesthetic that patinas over time. All systems come in multiple color options with matching downspouts and accessories.
How long will a gutter replacement project take and will it disrupt my daily routine?
For an average single-story home in Old Fort, our crew can remove your old gutters and install a new seamless system in 4–6 hours. Larger or multi-story homes may take up to a full day. We schedule work around your availability, ensure safe job-site practices, and perform a thorough cleanup so you experience minimal disruption.
Do new gutters add resale value to my property?
Yes. Modern seamless gutters improve curb appeal, demonstrate proactive home maintenance to buyers, and protect other exterior components from moisture damage—an attractive selling point during inspections. According to regional real-estate data, well-installed gutters can recoup up to 75% of their cost at resale while helping you avoid price drops caused by water-related defects.
What warranties and maintenance options do you provide?
All gutter replacements come with a 20-year material warranty and a 5-year workmanship guarantee. You can also add our LeafShield gutter guard system, which includes a lifetime clog-free warranty. For ongoing peace of mind, we offer annual or semi-annual maintenance plans that include cleaning, downspout flushing, and a comprehensive inspection report.
