Wood Rot Repair

Wood rot is one of the most common—and most overlooked—problems caused by failing gutters. When gutters overflow, detach, or are improperly pitched, water runs behind the system and slowly destroys fascia boards, soffits, rafters, and trim. At Premier Gutters KC, we specialize in professional wood rot repair so your home is structurally protected before installing new gutters.

We make sure the damaged wood is safely removed, replaced, sealed, and primed so your new gutter system has a solid foundation to attach to and perform correctly.

What Causes Wood Rot?

Kansas City’s mix of heavy rain, snow, and humidity creates perfect conditions for moisture damage. Common causes include:

Old or leaking gutters
Clogged gutters holding water
Improperly installed flashing
Water running behind the gutter
Damaged downspouts or poor drainage
Lack of proper sealing or paint

If left untreated, wood rot spreads and can become a serious structural issue.

Signs of Wood Rot Around Your Gutters

You may need wood rot repair if you notice:

Soft, cracking, or crumbling fascia boards
Peeling paint or discoloration
Gaps between gutters and fascia
Sagging gutters
Visible mold or mildew
Water dripping behind your gutters

Ignoring these problems leads to more damage and more expensive repairs.

Don’t Install New Gutters on Bad Wood

Many companies install new gutters right over damaged fascia, which leads to future failure and wasted money. Premier Gutters KC does it the right way, ensuring your home is repaired and protected before any gutter installation.
