Should a sagging or leaking gutter be repaired, or is it time to replace it?
A single fault usually calls for a repair, not a new system. One run that has dropped, a corner or end cap that drips, a downspout elbow lying in the flower bed: we reseal the joints, put in new hangers where the old ones let go, and reset the pitch so water actually travels to the outlet instead of pooling halfway. If the trough is simply packed with needles, you may only need our gutter cleaning visit.
New gutters make more sense when the sag shows up on several sides of the house, the metal has split, or every seam already carries old patches of caulk. A gutter's age on its own doesn't settle it. Twenty-year-old aluminium that still holds its slope can keep going for years .

What moves a quote: total footage, the count of corners where the run turns, one story or two, how many downspouts, and what sits under the run (a deck, a steep bed, thick shrubs). If the board behind the gutter is soft, that piece of wood gets replaced first and priced on its own as part of our rotted fascia and siding repairs.
People ask what 200 feet of gutter costs. There isn't an honest per-foot answer without seeing the house, because corners, outlets and height change the hours as much as footage does. For how we bill by the hour and what the smallest visit costs, see pricing. If you're comparing us with a home center or another installer, line up written quotes for the same footage, the same number of downspouts and the same hangers.
What kind of new gutters do we put up?
We'll fill this in with exactly what Slava installs: the metal, the profile, the width, the downspout size, and whether the runs come in sections or get formed on site in one piece . We won't claim a system we don't actually hang.
The old gutters come down first. What happens to the scrap after that is agreed before the job starts, because we don't haul anything off .
On west-side roofs with firs and moss nearby, a lot of debris heads for the outlets. A wider outlet, or one extra downspout on a long run, often does more for overflow than a fancier trough .
Are gutter guards worth it under Douglas firs?
Guards cut down how often gutters need clearing. They don't end it. Fir needles are thin enough to slip into some screens or lie flat on top of others, and moss from the roof settles on the surface and holds water. Under big firs, a guard you can lift off and rinse from a ladder tends to work better than one that's fastened down and hard to reach .
If the trees win anyway, a scheduled cleaning still has a place on the calendar, with or without guards.
Where should downspout water go?
Away from the house, onto ground that slopes away from it. That sounds obvious, but plenty of downspouts end in an elbow right beside the foundation, pointed at a crawl-space vent or a basement window. Many west-side homes built from the 1960s through the 80s have a crawl space underneath, and a downspout dumping beside one every storm is how a damp crawl space starts.
A downspout repair or extension job looks like this: reconnect loose elbows, replace broken straps, add an extension or splash block, and check the water ends up somewhere sensible. On a sloped lot that means making sure it doesn't simply run downhill into the next yard .
Why does the fascia board matter when a gutter pulls away?
The gutter hangs from the fascia, the painted board along the roof edge. When a gutter overflows for a few winters, that board soaks up the water and starts to soften. Screw a gutter back into soft wood and it lets go again, usually within a season or two.
So before rehanging, we push into the board with a tool along the run. Any rotted length is cut away and new board fitted, then the gutter goes back up into sound wood .
What gutter work don't we take on?
No moss killers or other chemical treatments on the roof, no zinc strips, no hauling away old gutters or yard debris, and no maintenance plans. Everything we turn down is listed under services we don't offer .
