Gutters Systems

new london county gutters 1A gutter system is comprised of gutters, downspouts and elbows that work together to collect and divert rainwater away from your home. Gutters are long, trough-like structures that surround the edge of your roof. Rainwater enters a gutter and travels down the side of your house through a downspout. Elbows are used to maneuver the flow of water through angled areas of a house, such as eaves or overhangs. They’re also placed at the bottom of a downspout to disperse rainwater onto areas like driveways.

Gutter systems are an important part of maintaining a healthy home. By moving water away from a house, they protect foundations and prevent basement flooding, soil erosion, and the wearing down of painted or stained surfaces. Rainwater can also be collected through gutter systems and used for gardening or other purposes.

Yost’s gutters, downspouts and elbows come in a range of colors and are custom fit to meet the specifications of your home. In fact, we manufacture them ourselves to ensure our products meet the highest level of craftsmanship. Interested in seeing our elbow machine in action? Click here!

deicing cable

De-Icing Cable

Prevent costly ice damage with de-icing cables, which preserve the functionality of a roof by promoting the free flow of water through gutters and downspouts. De-icing cables utilize heat wire to stop the formation of ice dams, caused by snow and ice repeatedly freezing and thawing on a roof. Ice dams are dangerous because they allow ice to force itself between the shingles, which can lead to damaging roof leaks.

 


splash blocks

Splashblocks

Splashblocks are placed at the base of a downspout to help control the flow of water. By directing water away from your house, splashblocks protect your foundation from leakage and cracks and also prevent the erosion of your lawn and garden.
