Repairs & Maintenance

Many people neglect the simplicity of proper maintenance of their gutters and downspouts. While the main purpose of gutters is to collect water off a roof area of a house or building, it is often neglected. When a gutter is working properly, it takes water that runs off a roof line and re-directs it to a downspout which is then diverts the water away from the house. Sometimes the downspouts run into the leader drain that is in the ground and meant to divert water even farther away. By simply cleaning the gutters and downspouts you can increase the level of defense your house has against water damage. The most common issues of damage are mold, water stains, water in garage or basement area. The simple advice is to clean and maintain your gutters twice a year - once in the spring and once in the late fall (after leaves have fallen) before problems occur. We at Ken Cooper Roofing recommend Rain Flow Gutter Protectors to prevent build up of leaves and debris that can clog gutters.

Proper ventilation on your roof is extremely important because it can lower your energy bills, help maintain the integrity of your roof and prevent most molds from growing.
