Gutter Services FAQs – Davenport & Quad Cities
Gutters play a vital role in protecting your home from water damage. Below are some frequently asked questions about our gutter installation, repair, and maintenance services in Davenport, Bettendorf, Moline, Rock Island, and East Moline.
Why are gutters important for my home?
Gutters help direct rainwater and melted snow away from your roof, siding, and foundation. Properly functioning gutters reduce the risk of water infiltration, basement flooding, soil erosion, and damage to landscaping, siding, and structural wood.
How often should gutters be cleaned?
Gutters should be cleaned at least twice a year — typically in spring and fall. If your home is surrounded by trees, more frequent cleaning may be needed to prevent clogs. Regular cleaning helps ensure water flows freely and prevents standing water that can lead to damage.
What gutter options are available?
We offer a range of gutter options, including seamless aluminum gutters, various sizes and colors to match your home’s exterior, and complementary accessories like gutter guards, downspouts, and splash blocks. Our team can help you choose the best system for your needs and budget.
Can gutters be repaired instead of replaced?
Yes — small issues like leaks, loose hangers, sagging sections, or minor damage from storms can often be repaired. However, if your gutters are severely damaged, rusted, or consistently clogging, a full replacement may be the most cost-effective solution.
