The first reason why you should look into new gutters is the affect wind has during a rainstorm. Wind may direct the water on the facade of the house. Without effective gutters, even an extended roof cannot protect the walls. Water causes damage to most construction material - wood, cement plaster, break and concrete to name a few. When home walls become wet, their heating capacity is impacted.

Second, water from an unprotected roof goes directly to the ground next to the home. From there it then infiltrates through the dirt to the foundation of the home. If this continues long enough, your foundation will begin to deteriorate and crack, causing water to eventually seep into the ground floor, basement or plinth of your home. Water infiltration may lead to many other problems and correspondingly reduce the lifetime of the basement. Furthermore, a weakened foundation will impact other parts of the whole house.

Another challenge of water infiltration is rotting and mold. Once water begins to seep into a basement or foundation, it is hard to remove effectively. This is because the infiltrated basement starts to create its own bad micro-climate in the house. This micro-climate features dampness and high humidity. Coupled with a dark environment (as basement lights are normally off), these conditions provide an ideal environment for mold growth. The impact can be damage doors, decks, furniture and carpets.

Looking to the outside of your house, another challenge emerges. Flowing water, brought on by damaged or old gutters not functioning correctly can destroy sidewalks and landscaping on your property. This is caused when the water that comes from the roof is not captured and channeled correctly when the water hits the ground. It may create an unplanned system of channels and ponds full of water. Water splashing back up on the house's siding may also produce mold, staining and other deterioration.
