Questions and Answers
What are the signs my Des Moines home needs new gutters or a gutter repair?
Common signs include water pooling around your foundation, gutters pulling away from the fascia, visible rust or cracks, and overflow during rain. In Des Moines, with our seasonal freeze-thaw cycles, these issues can quickly lead to more serious water damage or ice dams if not addressed. Our team can provide a free inspection to determine if a repair or full replacement is the most effective solution for your home.
How does Gutters Plus Exteriors protect my roof from Iowa's winter ice dams?
Ice dams are a frequent issue for Des Moines homes, often caused by inadequate attic insulation or ventilation and clogged gutters. We address the root cause by first ensuring your gutters are properly installed, sized, and clean to allow for proper drainage. For a comprehensive solution, we can also assess your roof's ventilation and recommend improvements alongside our gutter services to prevent heat loss and the melting/refreezing cycle that creates dams.
What siding materials do you recommend for durability in the Des Moines climate?
We recommend materials that withstand Iowa's temperature swings, moisture, and sun exposure. Vinyl siding is a popular, low-maintenance option with good impact resistance. Fiber cement siding offers exceptional durability and a classic look, resisting rot, insects, and fire. During a consultation, we'll discuss the pros and cons of each material based on your home's style and your budget to find the best long-term fit.
