Gutter & Roof Edge Repair

Common warning signs include sagging gutters, peeling paint near the roofline, water stains on exterior walls, overflow during rain, rotting fascia boards, and visible cracks or gaps in gutter seams. You may also notice pooling water around your foundation or mold growth on siding. If any of these issues are present, it’s important to address them promptly to prevent further damage to your roof and home structure.

Roof edges play a crucial role in guiding water into your gutter system. If they are bent, cracked, or rotting, water can bypass the gutters entirely, seeping under shingles or soaking fascia boards. This can lead to roof leaks, wood rot, pest infestations, and even structural damage in severe cases. Over time, compromised roof edges can shorten the lifespan of your entire roofing system.

Sagging gutters are often caused by excessive weight from standing water, debris buildup, or ice in winter. Loose or rusted fasteners, damaged fascia boards, or improper installation can also cause gutters to detach. If the fascia is rotting, the fasteners lose their grip, making it impossible for gutters to remain securely attached without repairs.

Yes. When gutters are clogged, water backs up and can pool along the roofline. This water may seep under shingles or drip into fascia and soffits, eventually finding its way into the attic or interior walls. In winter, backed-up water can freeze and form ice dams, which push water under the roofing materials, leading to leaks and insulation damage.

If fascia boards are damaged beyond repair, we carefully remove the affected section and replace it with new material that matches the existing profile and appearance. Before installation, we ensure the underlying structure is dry and sound. Once in place, the new fascia is secured, sealed, and prepared for gutter reattachment, restoring both strength and function to the roof edge.

This depends on the extent of the damage. Small cracks, loose joints, or minor sagging can often be repaired. However, if the gutters are severely rusted, bent beyond adjustment, or have multiple leaks, replacing them may be more cost-effective in the long run. During our inspection, we determine whether repair or replacement is the best solution for your situation.

Neglecting these issues can cause a chain reaction of damage. Water can infiltrate your siding, soak wooden roof structures, weaken foundations, and create conditions for mold growth. Repair costs increase dramatically once water reaches interior spaces or damages load-bearing components of your home.

We recommend inspecting them at least twice a year—once in the spring and once in the fall—to catch problems before they worsen. It’s also wise to schedule inspections after major storms, especially in the Kansas City area, where high winds and heavy rains can quickly damage gutters and roof edges.

Yes. Our repair process is adapted to the type of gutter system you have. Sectional gutters may require resealing of joints or replacing individual sections, while seamless gutters often involve patching, resecuring, or replacing longer continuous runs.

Absolutely. Damaged gutters and roof edges not only cause functional problems but also hurt curb appeal. Repairing sagging, bent, or rotted components improves the overall look of your home and makes the roofline appear clean, straight, and well-maintained.
