Gutter Repair in Sheboygan, WI

Lake-effect snow does not sit politely. It slides, and a sliding slab shears the gutter off.

Most gutter damage in cold climates gets attributed to ice dams, and on the Sheboygan lakeshore that is only half the story. The other half is mechanical, it happens in a few seconds, and it does far more visible damage.

Lake-effect snow is wet and heavy - it holds much more water per inch than the dry snow that falls inland. Put a foot of it on the steep-pitch roofs typical of this city's older housing, let the sun soften the layer at the surface of the shingle, and the whole slab releases at once. What it hits on the way down is the gutter.

Slide Damage Looks Different, and It Is Cheaper to Fix

Ice-dam damage is gradual: water backs up under the shingle, the trough carries a load it was not sized for, brackets work loose over a season or two. Slide damage is a single event - the front edge of the gutter is bent down and outward, brackets are pulled rather than loosened, and there is often a clean crease along the run where the slab caught it.

The useful part: slide damage is usually a re-hang and a straightening rather than a replacement, because the fascia behind it took a shear load rather than years of moisture. We can usually tell which of the two you have from a photograph before we come out.

Where a house has repeat slide damage on the same elevation, snow guards on the roof are the actual fix and they are roofing work, not ours. We will say so.

Common Questions

How do I know if it was ice or snow slide?

Ice-dam damage shows up as a sagging run and loosened brackets over a season. Slide damage is sudden: the front lip is bent down and out, often with a crease along the run, and the brackets are pulled rather than worked loose. A photo usually settles it.

Can the same gutter be re-hung or does it need replacing?

More often than people expect, it can be re-hung and straightened - slide damage is a one-off shear load rather than years of rot. If the front lip is creased through or the fascia is soft, that changes, and we will tell you which.
