My gutters are 40 years old, I have tried keeping them cleaned but the 7 cyprus trees along the fence made that a never ending problem. When I cleaned them I would paint them with fish oil so that has helped keep them intact. Along the tree side it is starting to get pinhole bubbles when I cleaned it last year and as soon as I can see a few hot days coming I will give them another clean and paint the inside with Hydroseal, that should give them another 10/15 years so by then probably not my problem
Tyler,
1987 should be copper throughout. The rusty water is that from the hot or cold tap, you didn't mention the kitchen
I have a garage under the house that sits about 4 feet below ground level with a room the same size beside it. This has 2 pumps in it and high water alarm if both pumps happen to fail with separate power supplies and power fail alarms to both power supplies. Helps when your son is a sparky
