Water management is a very important component to a healthy, safe, and long lasting home. Gutters are an important and often over looked & neglected part of a home’s water management system. The gutter system catches rain water and directs it away from the structure. Gutters and down spouts should be kept clean and splash blocks maintained. The gutters system is an important portion of JCM Building Services Home Inspection.
