Gutters overflowing in rain — Alicante, Valencian Community
Gutters that overflow during rain are not directing water away from your foundation, which can lead to basement flooding, soil erosion, and foundation damage over time. The cause may be clogs from leaves and debris, sagging sections, undersized gutters, or damaged downspouts. A gutter specialist can clean, realign, or replace your gutter system to restore proper drainage and protect your home from water damage.
Waarom dit veel voorkomt in Alicante
The Mediterranean climate's combination of intense UV, occasional intense rainfall, and salt air creates specific roofing challenges. Flat terraced roofs (azoteas) are common and prone to waterproofing failure as membranes age. The rainy season (October–December) exposes latent leaks after the dry summer. Coastal properties need salt-resistant flashing and fixings.
