A Plus Gutters | Gutter Services & Roofing in Kennewick, WA 99336

Absolutely. In our Kennewick climate, clogged gutters can lead to ice dams in winter and water backup under the roof edge year-round. This trapped moisture can ruin your roof's soffit vents, which are crucial for pulling cool air into your attic. When these vents are blocked, it disrupts the entire ventilation system, leading to excessive heat and moisture buildup that can warp decking and shorten your roof's life. Regular gutter cleaning is a key first step in maintaining healthy roof ventilation.

Skylights are prone to leaks here due to our temperature swings and seasonal wind-driven rain, which can degrade sealants and loosen flashing over time. At A Plus Gutters, we fix skylight leaks by first performing a thorough inspection to find the exact failure point—often the step flashing or the sealant around the glass. We then carefully replace damaged materials with high-quality, weather-resistant alternatives and ensure a watertight integration with your existing roof shingles, providing a durable solution tailored to our local conditions.

While all our services are important, proactive gutter cleaning and ensuring downspouts extend at least 5 feet from your foundation are the most critical for roof health. This prevents overflow that can saturate your roof's edge and fascia, a common precursor to rot and ventilation issues. For ultimate protection, we recommend our seamless gutter installation with oversized downspouts, which are less prone to clogging from our local pine needles and debris, ensuring water is efficiently channeled away from your entire roof system.
