Big Island Builders | General Contractors & Roofing in Hilo, HI 96720

Overflow is often caused by clogs from leaves and debris or undersized gutters for our rainfall levels. Big Island Builders recommends a combination of regular gutter cleaning, installing larger-capacity gutter systems, and adding protective gutter guards. We can assess your current setup and provide a solution to ensure proper water drainage away from your home's foundation.

First, prioritize safety and document the damage for insurance purposes. Then, contact us for a prompt, professional inspection. We'll secure any compromised areas with temporary covers to prevent further water intrusion, assess the full extent of the damage, and provide a clear repair plan using materials suited to withstand future storms. Acting quickly is key to preventing secondary issues like mold or structural damage.

We recommend a professional inspection at least once a year, ideally before the rainy season. Given our local exposure to high winds, salt air, and tropical debris, more frequent checks—especially after any major storm—can catch minor issues before they become costly repairs. Our inspections cover shingles, flashing, gutters, and the overall roof structure for signs of wear or storm impact.
