The Inspection
During the inspection, our specialist discovered some major issues with the gutter. Firstly, it was not securely attached to the fascia board, resulting in water leakage. Secondly, it was too small to handle the amount of water it was receiving. Lastly, the gutter and downspouts had not been properly maintained, resulting in a build-up of dirt and debris, leading to blockages.
The Process
Together with the client, we decided to replace the existing gutter and downspouts with larger ones so that they could work in optimal conditions. To ensure that the rainwater flowed properly, we took special care to make sure that the gutter had the ideal slope and the downspouts were securely fastened.
