  1. Blockage: Think of your gutters as a water highway. When leaves, twigs, and other debris accumulate, it's like a traffic jam that backs up water, causing it to spill over the edges.
  2. Incorrect Pitch: Gutters need a gentle slope to direct water towards the downspouts. If the angle is off, water can pool and stagnate, leading to overflows.
  3. Insufficient Capacity: During heavy rain, smaller gutters or a lack of downspouts can become overwhelmed, causing water to spill over.
