When homeowners have a new roof installed, they often have the gutters replaced at the same time. While you don’t necessarily need to replace your gutters when you replace your roof, tackling both projects at once can pay off in the long run.

Reasons to Replace a Roof and Gutters at the Same Time

Having contractors replace your gutters when they install a new roof can save you time and money in the long run. Your gutters must be in good shape to transfer water away from your roof and protect it from moisture damage. Gutters that are sagging or rusted or that have holes can’t do their job.

If your gutters are damaged and unable to direct water away from the roof, installing a new roof without replacing the gutters would be a mistake. Your new roof could quickly suffer moisture damage, and you would have to pay for roof repairs, in addition to new gutters. You can avoid that scenario by replacing the roof and gutters on the same day.

Getting a new roof and gutters installed together can save time. Workers will be able to remove the gutters when they tear off the old roofing shingles, rather than taking care to protect the gutters while they replace the roof. Since contractors will be at your house anyway, you won’t have to go through the hassle of arranging another appointment for gutter replacement, and workers won’t have to come to your home twice.
