Gutter Installation and Repair Services
Gutters and downspouts are important accessories to a home or business exterior. DNS Exterior Inc works with some of the top gutter systems and offers a wide range of colors of durable rainware to complement your siding, soffit and fascia.
DNS Exterior uses industry-standard five-inch gutters for residential applications and six-inch commercial gutters for your needs. Proven to neither leak nor sag, these gutters stand up to the weight of leaves, debris, snow, ice, critters – you name it. They’re made of heavy-gauge aluminum with an acrylic finish baked-on, inside and out.
Sure, siding is the star of the show. But don’t overlook what soffit and fascia do for your property. They protect hard-to-reach areas where water and decay do damage. We use Rollex soffit and fascia systems, which are backed by a manufacturer’s non-prorated lifetime warranty.
DNS Exterior uses Alcoa brand gutter and downspout protection systems. It is hard to imagine the extensive damage that can be caused by something as delicate as a leaf. However, leaves can clog gutters and downspouts resulting in severe problems and expensive home repairs.
During the dry summer months, a leaf-clogged gutter could be a potential fire hazard as dried leaves are highly flammable. In damp warm temperatures, it can be a breeding ground for mosquitoes. In the fall and springtime, leaves can get caught in a gutter, blocking downspouts and causing water to overflow.
This can lead to leakage or even worse, a major home disaster. When water is trapped, it can seep under the shingles, though the fascia or into the soffit, where it can cause serious damage to exterior walls, insulation and drywall.
Water damage can also cause roof deterioration and ground erosion, which can be particularly dangerous situation as this affects the foundation of the house. When winter begins to set in, any leaves, twigs or pine needles that remain in the gutter begin to decay and form a clay-like substance within the downspouts.
During the day, snow melts and runs down the roof into the gutter where, trapped by this dam of debris, it can freeze overnight causing a serious obstruction. The weight of certain blockages can cause the gutter to pull away from the house if it is not securely attached and can cause pooling next to the foundation.
Call us today – we’d love to discuss your rainware, gutter, downspout, soffit and fascia needs and find the perfect solution for your property and budget.
How to choose the right gutter contractor:
Broken or leaking gutters can wreak havoc on your home, causing everything from paint damage to basement flooding and a cracked foundation.
Once you’ve determined that your home needs new gutters it is important to find a good installer. Improperly installed gutters will not protect your home any more than a broken umbrella will keep you dry in a hurricane.
Educate Yourself
Before you contact gutter installers, take the time to educate yourself about the types of gutters and the installation process DNS Exterior Inc in Lockport IL can help to educate you. Gutters are made of a variety of materials, including aluminum, steel, copper, plastic and vinyl.
Research the different types to find out the pros and cons of each and determine the best choice for you. Other information that would be helpful is the difference between sectional and seamless gutters and the different methods of mounting the gutters.
Installers can offer insight and recommendations on these topics, but acquiring some basic knowledge before you schedule a meeting will lead to a more productive discussion and better decision making.
Finding a Gutter Installer
Personal referrals are a good way to identify potential gutter installers, but don’t choose a gutter contractor based solely on a friend’s recommendation. Take the time to interview each installer before you make a decision.
Big Box stores often offer gutter installation services, but their employees may not have the experience or the specialized skill set that a professional contractor offers. For the best and longest lasting results, hire DNS Exterior Inc. for your gutter installation.
