Question: Do you install seamless gutters?

​

• Answer: Yes, we install seamless gutters. We will fabricate your gutters on site and cut them to the appropriate length needed for each section of gutter. All our seamless rain gutters are done with hand-fabricated corners, a hidden hanger system, and strapless downspouts to give your system a clean look.

​

Question: Why do I need gutters?

​

• Answer: Gutters have a critical role in protecting your home from water damage. Rain Gutter systems channel water away from the walls, foundation, and landscaping which helps to prevent issues like:

  • Foundation Problems: Excess water near your foundation can cause erosion and potential cracking, leading to expensive repair costs.

  • Basement Flooding: Rain Gutters direct water away from your home, helping to prevent the water runoff from your roof from seeping into your basement. Water seeping into your basement can lead to problems with mold, mildew, and other types of water damage.

  • Siding and Fascia Damage: Water running off the roof can cause damage to both your siding and fascia. Types of damage that can occur are streaking or discoloration issues. Without having rain gutters, the additional water running off your roof can lead to rot and decay of your fascia over time.

  • Damage to landscaping: Without rain gutters, the additional water running off your roof can cause damage to your landscaping.

 

Question: What are the benefits of a gutter cover or gutter guard?

​

• Answer: There are several benefits to getting rain gutter covers (also known as gutter guards).

  • Prevents Clogs: Gutter covers help to keep debris like leaves, pine needles, and other debris out of your gutters. This reduces the need for frequent cleaning and maintenance.

  • Reduces Water Damage: With an unobstructed path, rain water flows smoothly through the gutters, reducing the risk of water spilling over the sides, which can cause damage to your siding, fascia, foundation, and landscaping.

  • Minimizes Maintenance: Cleaning your own gutters can be a dangerous task. With rain gutter covers installed, the frequency and difficulty of cleaning your rain gutters can be greatly reduced, saving you time and effort.

  • Prevents Pest Infestation: The build up of debris in your gutters can attract pests like mosquitoes, bees, ants, or rodents. Gutter covers can minimize this risk by keeping debris out of your gutters and reducing the likelihood of standing water.

Question: What are the different sizes of Seamless K-Style gutters?

​

• Answer: 

  • We offer both 5" and 6" Seamless K-Style gutters. Our experienced estimator will provide you with recommendations based on your home's specifications. The factors that are used to determine whether you need 5" or 6" gutters are based on the size of your roof, pitch of your roof, and the overall water control needs of your home's roof.

  • There are also aesthetic considerations to be made. For example, if you have a larger fascia profile, we may recommend 6" gutters that can improve the appeal of the exterior of your home.

​

Question: What are the different size of downspouts?

​

• Answer: Downspouts are an essential component of your gutter system, as they direct water from the gutters down to the ground and away from your home. The size of downspout you need will depend on whether you use 5" gutters or 6" gutters and also the amount of water that may run off your roof. Our experienced estimator will provide recommendations based off those factors.​

  • 2" x 3" Downspouts (Standard Size): These are the most common downspouts and are typically used with 5" gutters.

  • 3" x 4" Downspouts: These are often used with 6" gutters, but can also be used with 5" gutters if our experienced estimator determines that they're needed for additional water control.

​

Question: How many downspouts do I need?

• Answer: Our experienced estimator will provide the recommended number of downspouts based on the roof size, gutter size, gutter length, roof pitch, and overall roof profile.

​

Question: What color of gutters are available?

• Answer: We offer over 50 colors. Our experienced estimator will provide color recommendations based on the color of your roof, siding, and fascia.

​
