Drip Edge & Seamless Gutters Matter More Than You Think

Most homeowners in Columbus focus on shingles — but your drip edge and gutter system are what control the water.

Fun fact: just one inch of rain on an average roof can dump hundreds of gallons of water onto your home. If the drainage system fails, that water can damage:

  • Roof decking
  • Fascia boards
  • Siding
  • Foundation areas
  • Basements

Drip edge is the metal flashing installed at the roof edge that helps direct water into the gutters instead of behind them. Missing or improperly installed drip edge is one of the most common issues we see during inspections.

Seamless gutters are custom made for your home with fewer joints, which means:

  • Fewer leaks
  • Better drainage
  • Cleaner appearance
  • Less maintenance
