What a failing gutter leaves behind
Gutters rarely fail all at once. Seams start to drip, a corner miter opens up, a section sags where a hanger let go, or the whole run tilts so water pools in the middle instead of reaching the downspout. Many Novi homes still have gutters from when they were built, and after decades of ice and snow load they have stretched, bent and loosened.
The bigger problem is usually behind the gutter. Water that spills over or leaks through seams soaks the fascia board, and over time the wood rots, the gutter loses its grip and the soffit above starts to stain or sag. Sometimes that water runs down to the window trim, siding and foundation.
When we replace gutters, we take the old ones down, check and photograph the fascia, and replace rotted wood before anything new goes up. Then we install seamless gutters with hangers spaced for snow and ice, pitched to drain, with downspouts sized and placed for the roof above them. If the roof edge itself is part of the problem, such as missing drip edge, we show you and fix it so the new gutters don’t go through the same thing.
When Novi gutters need replacing
One of these is often a repair. Several together usually mean replacement.
Sagging or pulling away
Gutters that dip or lean out between hangers no longer hold their pitch, so water sits instead of draining.
Leaks at every seam
Sectional gutters with many joints drip once the sealant ages, and resealing them buys only a season or two.
Bent by ice & snow
Snow sliding off the roof and ice in the trough can crush, twist or kink gutters past straightening.
Rotted fascia
Soft, stained or crumbling fascia means water has been getting behind the gutter for a long time.
Undersized for the roof
If gutters overflow in every heavy rain even when clean, they can’t carry what the roof sends them.
Water at the foundation
Pooling, washed-out mulch or a damp basement often trace back to failed gutters and short downspouts.
Which fix fits your gutters
We don’t start from replacement. If your gutters are the right size, still hold their pitch and only have a few problem spots, a repair is the honest answer and we’ll tell you so.
Replacement makes sense when the problems are everywhere at once or when the fascia behind them has failed. And if your roof is near the end of its life, it can be smart to replace both together, since the gutters come off for the new drip edge anyway. You’ll see photos of what we find and get the options in writing.
Fascia repair is part of the decision. If only a short stretch of board is soft, it can be replaced without touching the rest of the system. If rot runs along most of the house, the gutters have to come down anyway, and that is usually the right time to put up new seamless gutters sized for the roof instead of rehanging old ones.

Real reviews from homeowners across Metro Detroit.
“Kincaide did a phenomenal job fixing up my garage roof and siding. They also cleaned up the area after so my dog wouldn’t get hurt. Everytime there was any issue found during installation, they provided picture evidence. They also were the best cost when compared to other companies. Highly recommend.”
“Kincaide roofing went above and beyond our expectations. Scott (the owner) took pictures of every step and fix he made. They were punctual, thorough and very professional. No B.S. with Scott, the communication was straight forward and gave us briefings every night before they left.”
“Very awesome, professional experience with Kincaide!!! Scott and his crew is wonderful. They do good work, really put things in terms so that people can understand things better. We will definitely be sticking with KINCAIDE!!!”
Winter is hard on Novi gutters
Most gutter damage we see in Novi traces back to ice and snow.
Each winter, gutters on Novi homes fill with snow and ice, sometimes for weeks. That weight bends gutters, pulls hangers out of the fascia and opens seams. Ice dams forming at the eaves add more. By spring, a gutter that looked fine in the fall may be sagging or pulling away. Older homes in the city’s 1980s and 1990s subdivisions often show this first.
Ice load
Ice-filled gutters bend, sag and pull hangers loose over a long winter.
Fascia repair
Rotted fascia behind old gutters replaced before new gutters go up.
Seams and corners
