Gutters

The standard for gutter systems is now to go seamless. Seamless gutters are water tight and do not rely on sealants every 8’ to prevent leaking. They have less seams, so they are a lot more resilient than the gutters of yesteryear. We can provide seamless gutters made from all sorts of materials, such as copper, aluminum or galvanized steel which has many color options. Available in 5” or 6” sizes.

Often, overflow is due to a blockage or an improper slope. Other times, if the gutters are not installed correctly or do not have a drip edge, water from the roof may just pass right over the gutter. The last reason a gutter may overflow is because you do not have enough downspouts to displace the water coming down.

Usually, you need a downspout every 40’, but it also depends on how much of the roof area you are draining. A bigger area may require more downspouts.

You should clean out your gutters at least twice a year.

The most common is aluminum, which can be made in a variety of colors. Be sure to ask a representative about what colors we have available.

Most gutter systems now attach using clips that hook to the front bevel of the gutter and are screwed through the fascia board. Older systems use long spikes and ferrules, which full out fascia boards when there is a lot of ice or snow.

We actually have two great options for gutter guard protection.

Our first option is called ShurFlo.

What makes ShurFlo different makes ShurFlo Far better than most – ShurFlo Gutter Guard does not go under your roof shingle and has a patented angle built into the design of the system, so debris will not sit on the system! (“It stays clean just like your roof stays clean”) ShurFlo just attaches to the gutter! Then it is screwed into place. So ShurFlo does not affect your roof warranty.
It is an aluminum guard that had tiny holes over the surface that keeps debris from clogging the drain. It has a 20 year warranty, low profile look, and is mechanically attached with zip screws.

Our second option is Hydro Flow Gutter Guards our premier option to protect your gutters from leaves and debris.

It features a 2 layer integrated system. The stainless steel fine mesh top layer prevents the smallest of debris from entering your gutter while the rigid aluminum base strengthens your gutters.

Stainless Steel is used for the fine mesh due to its resistance to warping and cracking, whereas aluminum is used for the bottom, base layer, of the Hydro-Flo gutter guard due to its strength and lightweight.

The lower base level features a unique grooved design to allow water to flow unimpeded, and create an air pocket so wet leaves that land on the upper screen will dry more quickly and blow off the gutter guard
