Gutter and Fascia Repair Project in Oak Park, MI
We recently inspected a home in Oak Park, Michigan after the homeowner noticed ongoing water issues. In the video, you can see how the gutter fails to drain properly. Water overflows at the inside corner and spills where it should not.
The overflow caused the fascia board to drop, which made the drainage problem worse. As the fascia sagged, the gutter lost its correct pitch. Instead of flowing toward the downspout, water backed up and poured over the edge.
Gutter problems like this can lead to serious damage. Water can soak into the fascia and roof decking. Over time, this moisture can cause wood rot, shingle damage, and interior leaks.
For this repair, we will replace the damaged fascia board and raise it back into position. We will install new fascia capping to protect the wood from moisture. Our team will also repair the shingles in the affected area. Finally, we will repitch the gutter to restore proper water flow.
This project shows how small exterior issues can grow into larger problems. Proper gutter pitch and solid fascia support protect your roofline and your home.
If you notice gutter overflow or sagging fascia on your home in Oak Park, it may be time for a repair. Addressing these issues early helps prevent costly damage later.
