Gutters overflowing in Boston
Overflow can have several possible causes. Learn what to observe safely and when to get professional help.
Why gutters may overflow
Leaves or other debris may block a gutter or downspout. Overflow can also happen if a gutter is damaged or doesn’t drain as it should. From the ground, note where water spills over and whether you can see debris or a sagging section. Don’t use a ladder or climb onto the roof to inspect it.
When to contact a professional
Contact a gutter professional if overflow keeps happening, a gutter looks loose or sagging, or water is getting into the home or collecting near its foundation. Leave roof access and physical inspection to a qualified professional.
