Home inspectors are required to inspect the gutters and downspouts as part of the roof portion of the home inspection.

Roof Gutters - Home Inspection Edmonton — Roof Gutters

As part of the Brookstone Home Inspection, we check your roof gutters to ensure that they are free of granule deposits as shown in the photo, rust, cracks and holes to prevent leaking. We also check that the downspouts divert water 4 to 6 feet away from the home's foundation.

Cleaning gutters can take a substantial amount of water. Homeowners can place a garden hose in the gutters and downspouts to flush them out, making sure that the water is directed away from the home via the downspouts. This will help reduce the chances of saturating the soil around the foundation. #roofgutter #HomeInspector #homeinspectornearme #homeinspectoredmonton
