How Rainwater Can Damage a Home

A typical 2,500 square foot roof can shed more than 1,500 gallons of water from just one inch of rainfall. If that water is not captured and directed away properly, it can damage siding, erode landscaping, weaken foundations, and lead to basement leaks.

Most property damage does not come from extreme storms. It usually happens slowly over time when gutters clog, slope incorrectly, or fail to direct water safely away from the home.

Common Causes of Water Damage

Clogged Gutters

Leaves and debris block water flow, causing overflow behind the gutter.

Poor Gutter Pitch

Improper slope can cause standing water that leads to leaks and sagging.

Ice Buildup

Frozen gutters can pull away from fascia boards and allow water behind the system.

Improper Drainage

Downspouts that discharge too close to the foundation increase water risk.

Winter Ice and Snow Damage

Michigan winters create unique drainage challenges. Melting snow can refreeze at roof edges, creating ice buildup and ice dams that trap water behind shingles and gutters.

Ice inside gutters can bend hangers, loosen fasteners, and push water behind fascia boards.

Preventing Damage with Proper Gutters

A properly designed gutter system captures rainwater from the roof and directs it safely away from the structure.
