Yes, absolutely. When gutters are clogged, damaged, or improperly installed, water can overflow and run down the side of your house. This constant moisture can seep behind the roof flashing, causing it to deteriorate and separate from the roof deck or chimney. Mejia Roofing addresses this by installing properly sized gutters, ensuring correct downspout placement away from your foundation, and performing regular cleaning to prevent backups that lead to these costly roofing issues.

During Lexington storms, a compromised gutter system can't handle the volume of water. Old, sagging, or leaking gutters allow water to pool at your roof's edge or cascade down your walls, overwhelming the roof's drainage design. This excess water is a primary cause of storm leaks around eaves and fascia. Our gutter replacement service installs new, seamless gutters with the correct slope and capacity to swiftly channel stormwater away from your roof, dramatically reducing the risk of leaks.

It depends on the extent of the damage and the age of your system. A minor repair, like sealing a small leak or re-securing a section, might be sufficient if the rest of the system is sound. However, if the leak is due to widespread corrosion, multiple seams failing, or improper original installation, a full replacement is often more cost-effective and reliable in the long run. Our team can inspect the damage, trace the leak's origin, and provide a straightforward recommendation on the best solution to protect your Lexington home from future storms.
