I've noticed water dripping down behind the eaves and in between the eaves and the flashing on my house. Is this something that commonly happens, or could it indicate a problem? I'm looking for insights on things to check while I inspect the area myself. Any recommendations on potential fixes would be appreciated! Thanks in advance for your help!

It sounds like that might be an issue with your gutters. If they're overflowing or clogged, water can get behind the eaves. Make sure they’re clear and sloped correctly towards the downspouts. Building codes specify minimum sizes for gutters and downspouts, and if they’re undersized, that could also be a part of the problem. Check those details to troubleshoot!
Haha, definitely gutters! I made sure mine were clean too after noticing something similar. It was a relief to find it wasn’t during a huge rainstorm!
