Your gutters and downspouts direct water away from your home, protecting it from water damage. Issues with these components can result in a long list of problems, including roofing issues, weakened foundation and damaged exterior.

You must know about the normal signs of roof aging to protect yourself from storm chasers who claim your roof is damaged when it’s not.
