Top 5 Problems Caused by Clogged Gutters
If water backs up in your gutters, the edge of your roof surface and theunderlying materials (wood sheeting typically) can be damaged by theconstant contact with water.
This causes the wood and surface material to rot and become weak. Eventually the surface and the wood underneath will have to be replaced.

Water backed up in gutters is heavy (8 pounds per gallon) which can causethe gutter attachments to pull away from the wood fascia it is attached to,damaging the wood.
Water spilling over the edges of gutters and onto the wood fascia boardswill also cause the wood to rot and weaken as well.

Your foundation supports the entire structure of your home. Excess watercontact here can cause your foundation to leak, shift, crack or even sink.
Clean gutters and downspouts carry water away from your home andfoundation to points where it can be easily absorbed into the ground ordrainage system.
Your landscaping also suffers when this excess water falls on trees, plants andflowers. It is simply the difference between watering plants with a gardenhose vs watering with a fire hose. Too much water directed in one spot can bea bad thing!
