FAQs
What are heavy-duty gutter hangers and why are they so important for homes in Dandridge?
Heavy-duty gutter hangers are reinforced brackets that fasten your gutters securely to the fascia board. In Dandridge we see sudden downpours, high winds coming off Douglas Lake, and the occasional ice or snow load in winter. Standard spike-and-ferrule systems often pull loose under these stresses, causing gutters to sag, leak, or detach and damage the roof edge. Heavy-duty hangers use thicker aluminum or stainless steel, extra-wide mounting flanges, and corrosion-resistant screws, so they withstand heavier water flow, wind uplift, and ice weight, protecting both the gutter and the roofing system.
How can I tell if my existing gutter hangers need to be replaced?
Look for these warning signs: • Visible sagging or a wavy gutter line. • Gutters pulling away from the fascia, showing gaps. • Rusty or missing screws/nails on the hangers. • Water marks or rot along the fascia board. • Overflow or backups during moderate rain. If you notice any of these, schedule an inspection. We’ll check hanger spacing (should be 24–30 inches apart), fastener condition, and the integrity of the fascia wood before recommending replacement.
What types and materials of heavy-duty hangers do you install in Dandridge?
We stock hidden, wrap-around, and T-bar style heavy-duty hangers in 0.063-gauge aluminum, 16-gauge galvanized steel, and 304 stainless steel. Hidden hangers give a clean look for 5" and 6" K-style gutters, while wrap-arounds add extra strength for half-round systems. Stainless steel hangers are ideal near the lake where moisture and salt air accelerate corrosion. All options include long, self-tapping screws that penetrate rafter tails or backside blocking for maximum hold.
Will replacing my gutter hangers or gutters damage my roof or landscaping?
No. Our crews use standoff ladder stabilizers to avoid crushing shingles and protective blankets to shield shrubs and flower beds. Hangers are installed under the drip edge without disturbing the roofing membrane. If the drip edge is brittle or outdated, we can replace it during the same visit. Clean-up includes magnetic nail sweepers and full debris removal, so your property looks untouched except for the new, sturdier gutter system.
How much does heavy-duty hanger and gutter replacement cost in the Dandridge area?
Pricing depends on gutter length, hanger type, and fascia repairs. As a ballpark: • Hanger upgrade only: $4–$6 per linear foot. • Complete 5" aluminum gutter with heavy-duty hangers: $10–$13 per linear foot. • 6" oversized system for metal or steep roofs: $12–$16 per linear foot. We provide free on-site estimates that include removal/disposal of old gutters, new downspouts, and a 5-year labor warranty. Senior, veteran, and lake-area HOA discounts are available.
How soon can you schedule and finish a heavy-duty gutter replacement in Dandridge, and what warranties do you offer?
Most projects are scheduled within 7–10 days of approval. A typical single-story home (up to 180 linear feet of gutter) is completed in one day; two-story or steep-slope roofs may take 1½–2 days. We back our installations with a 5-year workmanship warranty and pass along the manufacturer’s 25-year material warranty on aluminum and lifetime warranty on stainless steel hangers. Annual maintenance plans are also available to keep gutters performing at their best.
