The gutters on your roof might seem like just another additional component that’s entirely optional, but they actually play a big role in protecting your home. Handyman Connection of Novi discusses the importance of your home’s gutter system.

Gutters Protect Your Exterior Walls
The primary role of your gutters is protecting your exterior paint and siding from water damage. It diverts water that pools on the roof away from the sides of your home and redirects it elsewhere. Exterior wall paint and siding are vulnerable to water damage, and apart from causing disrepair, water damage will reduce your home’s curb appeal.
Water Will Damage Your Foundation
Without a gutter system, water pooling from the roof will make its way down to your home’s foundation and basement. Water pooling in your foundation is very dangerous since it will constantly cause moisture damage on the foundation until there’s already considerable moisture damage.
These pools of water are also breeding grounds for insects like mosquitoes. Water pooling in your foundation also causes the topsoil to erode. In serious cases, the topsoil gets so eroded that the foundation actually shifts in place.
Gutters Protect from Flooding
The biggest risk though is that without the gutters, your basement will likely get flooded when it rains. You don’t want this to happen since things like the HVAC system and heating apparatuses are located in the utility portion of your basement.
