Gutters last a long time when properly maintained, but that doesn’t mean they last forever. Depending on the age and state of your gutters, you may need a gutter replacement service sooner rather than later. But just how often do you need to replace your gutters?

Gutters come in many different material options, and how often you need a gutter replacement service depends on the material of your gutters. For example, gutters made from aluminum tend to last for approximately 20 years, while copper gutters can last for several decades. However, sometimes your gutters get damaged and will need to be replaced no matter how old they are.

Many damages that you may notice with your gutters are often the result of storms, neglect, or damages to your surrounding roofing system. Cracks, leaks, sagging, and water damage all point toward needing a gutter replacement. When you ignore the state of your gutters, you run the risk of your home getting damaged, which can lead to expensive fixes. When possible, it’s always best to prevent and avoid issues rather than deal with them after they appear, and replacing your gutter system can help prevent damages to your roof, foundation, and other areas of your home.
