When replacing the roof, most homeowners cannot help but think whether or not they should replace their gutters as well. While there are benefits to replacing these systems at the same time, it will ultimately depend on the current condition of your gutters.

When Is the Right Time to Replace Your Gutters?
If your gutter system fails to properly drain rainwater away from your home, it can cause all sorts of water-related problems, such as overflows, basement floods and eroded soil. Over time, your home can suffer from severe structural damage.
If your current gutters are badly damaged or in need of frequent repairs, then it is best to have them replaced when you get a new roof installed. But make sure you let a professional conduct the necessary inspections first. A gutter specialist will look for signs of damage including cracks, corrosion and sagging. Paint peeling on your exterior and water damage under the eaves also indicate that it is time to replace your gutters.
It Pays to Get New Gutters With a New Roof
Even if their current gutters have no pressing issues, some homeowners decide to get new ones along with their new roofs because it tends to be more affordable, especially when the homeowner is using some type of financing to do it. Moreover, getting a new roof with new gutters saves money on labor costs because you only have to deal with a single contractor.
Sometimes, All You Need Are Repairs
Before you get a new roof, ask a professional to inspect your gutters. If they discover some issues, such as rust marks or loose fasteners, ask them what solutions they would recommend. At times, repairs are all you need to extend the service life of your gutters.
