Gutter leaking at joints — Lodz, Łódź
Leaks at gutter joints and seams are the most common gutter failure. Sealant degrades over time, and thermal expansion widens gaps between sections. Leaking gutters pour water against the fascia, soffit, and foundation instead of channeling it away, causing rot and basement moisture. A gutter specialist can reseal joints, replace damaged sections, or install seamless gutters to eliminate joints entirely.
