Gutter Installation & Repair

Why Gutters Are Critical for Your Home

Your gutters might not seem exciting, but they play a crucial role in protecting your home. They collect rainwater running off your roof and direct it away from your foundation. Without properly functioning gutters, water can damage your foundation, flood your basement or crawlspace, erode landscaping, and even cause interior water damage.

In San Juan, we get some serious rain when storms move through. That water has to go somewhere. If your gutters are clogged, damaged, or missing, all that water pours down next to your foundation instead of being carried safely away. Over time, this causes cracks in your foundation, settling issues, and expensive repair bills.

We install and repair gutters throughout the San Juan area. Whether you need new gutters for a home under construction, want to replace old worn-out gutters, or need repairs to fix leaks and sagging, we handle it all. We also work alongside our roofing services since your roof and gutters work together as a system to protect your home.

Signs Your Gutters Need Attention

How do you know if your gutters need repair or replacement? Here are the warning signs:

Sagging or Pulling Away

If your gutters are pulling away from the house or sagging in sections, the fasteners have failed or the gutters are clogged and too heavy. This needs to be fixed before the gutters fall completely.

Leaks and Holes

Water dripping through seams or holes defeats the whole purpose of gutters. Small leaks can often be repaired, but extensive rust or damage might require replacement.

Peeling Paint or Rust

Peeling paint on your gutters or the fascia behind them indicates water is not being properly channeled. Rust spots show the gutters are deteriorating and need replacement soon.

Water Stains or Damage

Stains on your siding below the gutters or erosion around your foundation show water is overflowing instead of being carried away. This needs immediate attention to prevent worse damage.

Cracked or Separated Seams

Sectional gutters can separate at the seams over time. Seamless gutters eliminate this problem, which is why we recommend them for most homes.

Professional Gutter Installation

When we install new gutters, we do it right so they last for decades. Here is our process:

We start by carefully measuring your home and calculating the proper gutter size and slope. Most homes need 5-inch or 6-inch gutters, depending on roof size and rainfall amounts. We cut seamless aluminum gutters on-site to fit your home perfectly, eliminating seams where leaks commonly develop.

We install gutters with a slight slope toward the downspouts so water flows efficiently without pooling. We use heavy-duty hangers spaced properly to support the weight of gutters full of water. We also make sure downspouts are positioned to direct water at least 6 to 10 feet away from your foundation.

We offer gutters in several colors to match or complement your home's exterior. Aluminum gutters will not rust and require minimal maintenance. With proper care and cleaning, they can last 20 to 30 years or more.
