The importance of timely repair of gutters

To avoid the risk of water problems in your home, it is important to repair damage to your gutters as soon as possible. We would like to explain why.

Loss of function

When your gutters are damaged, it is important to have them repaired by an experienced expert. A damaged gutter loses its function almost immediately, which is to collect rainwater and precipitation and drain it in a controlled manner to a favorable location. When this water circulation is interrupted, problems are just around the corner.

Water along and through your facade

Various problems can arise when your aluminium gutters, internal brackets or external brackets are damaged. For example, instead of following the circulation, water can start to seep along your facade. This causes (major) moisture problems both inside and outside your home or building.

What other problems besides moisture?

Moisture accumulation in the walls of your home is not the only problem that can occur after damage to your gutters.

1. Clogging of the gutter: the impact of the environment should not be underestimated. Small twigs, sand, leaves and insects, ... All sorts of things can get stuck and water can no longer circulate optimally.
2. Rust: the combination of metal, moisture and air normally causes rust. And you want to avoid rust on your gutters like the plague. However, the aluminium gutters from Gallenco are installed rust-free, so we avoid this problem for you.
3. Aging: your gutters are subjected to our Belgian weather day in and day out. Wear and tear are therefore inevitable, which can cause parts to come loose or (small) holes to appear. However, Gallenco works with aluminium gutters: durable, strong as iron and corrosion-resistant.
