FAQs
What are gutter guards and why should I upgrade to them in Clinton?
Gutter guards are protective covers that fit over your existing gutters to keep out leaves, pine needles, roof grit, and other debris. In Clinton’s mix of heavy spring rains and leaf-dropping hardwood trees, gutter guards prevent clogs that can cause water to overflow and damage fascia boards, siding, and foundations. Upgrading to a high-quality stainless-steel micro-mesh system also minimizes maintenance—no more dangerous ladder climbing every season to clean out gutters.
How do I know whether my gutters need replacement instead of just cleaning?
Signs you need new gutters include persistent leaks or overflow even after cleaning, cracks or splits along the trough, sections pulling away from the fascia, peeling paint or rust, and water marks on exterior walls or inside the basement. In Clinton’s freeze-thaw cycles, small cracks can quickly widen, so if more than 25–30 % of your gutter length shows deterioration, full replacement is more cost-effective than repeated spot repairs.
What gutter materials and sizes do you offer, and which is best for my home?
We install seamless aluminum (the most popular), heavy-gauge steel, and copper gutters in both 5-inch K-style (standard) and 6-inch oversized profiles. For most Clinton residences with average roof areas, 5-inch aluminum with a baked-on enamel finish provides ample capacity and long life. Homes with steep roofs, large surface areas, or extensive tree cover benefit from 6-inch gutters paired with micro-mesh guards, because the larger channel moves 40 % more water and sheds debris better.
How long does a gutter replacement and guard installation project take?
A typical single-story, 150-linear-foot home in Clinton can be completed in one day. Two-story homes or those requiring fascia repairs may take 1½ to 2 days. We perform an on-site assessment first, fabricate seamless gutters on-site to exact lengths, install new hangers every 24 inches, add downspouts, and fit gutter guards before performing a thorough water test and cleanup.
What does a gutter replacement with guards cost in the Clinton area?
Prices vary with material, house height, and linear footage, but most projects range from $12–$18 per linear foot for seamless aluminum gutters and $7–$10 per linear foot additional for premium stainless-steel micro-mesh guards. A 150-foot home would typically run $2,850–$4,200 all-in. We provide a detailed written estimate outlining materials, labor, and any fascia repairs so you can make an informed decision.
Do you offer warranties or maintenance plans after installation?
Yes. Our seamless aluminum and steel gutters come with a 20-year material warranty and a 5-year workmanship guarantee. Copper systems carry a 50-year material warranty. The micro-mesh gutter guards include a lifetime no-clog guarantee—if they ever back up, we’ll clean them free. Optional annual maintenance plans start at $125 and include an inspection, downspout flushing, and a roof/gutter report to keep your drainage system performing at its best.
