In Baton Rouge, most gutter systems last 15–25 years, depending on material, installation quality, and maintenance.

Poorly installed or neglected systems fail much sooner.

What Shortens Gutter Lifespan in Baton Rouge

• Heavy rain and storms

• High humidity

• Debris buildup

• Loose fasteners

• Poor drainage design

Typical Lifespan by Material

• Aluminum gutters: ~20 years (less if neglected)

• Seamless systems: longer due to fewer leaks

• Poorly installed systems: unpredictable lifespan

Signs Your Gutters Are Near the End

• Repeated leaks

• Sagging across long sections

• Overflow despite cleaning

• Separation from fascia

• Visible corrosion

At that point, gutter replacement in Baton Rouge is usually more cost-effective than ongoing repairs.

How to Extend Gutter Life

• Regular inspections

• Routine cleaning

• Correct pitch and support

• Early repairs
