FAQs
Why should I consider high-capacity gutter replacements for my Old Fort home?
Old Fort receives frequent heavy rainfalls and occasional storms. Standard 5-inch gutters can overflow, leading to fascia rot, basement leaks, and landscape erosion. High-capacity (usually 6-inch or oversized) gutters channel up to 40 % more water, greatly reducing overflow and protecting your roofing, siding, and foundation.
What types of materials are available for high-capacity gutters and roofs?
For gutters, popular high-capacity options include aluminum (lightweight, rust-resistant, budget-friendly), steel (stronger, ideal for hail-prone areas), and copper (premium, long-lasting, distinctive look). Roofing replacements often pair with architectural shingles, metal panels, or standing-seam roofs, all of which integrate well with oversized gutter systems. We help you weigh cost, durability, and aesthetics before deciding.
How long does a typical roof and gutter replacement project take in Old Fort?
Most single-family homes require 1–2 days for gutter replacement and 2–4 days for a full roof replacement, weather permitting. If both projects are done together, we coordinate crews so the entire job usually finishes within a week, minimizing disruption to your daily routine.
Will high-capacity gutters affect my home’s appearance?
Oversized gutters are only about an inch wider than standard profiles and come in dozens of colors and styles, including K-style and half-round. When matched to your fascia or trim, they blend seamlessly with the roofline. Many homeowners find that the slightly larger profile is barely noticeable once installed.
What kind of maintenance do high-capacity gutters require?
Like any gutter, they should be inspected and cleaned twice a year—once in spring and once in fall. Because they’re wider, they clog less frequently, but debris can still accumulate near downspout openings. Installing compatible leaf guards further reduces upkeep, especially under Old Fort’s mix of pine and hardwood trees.
Are warranties available on roof and gutter replacements?
Yes. Our roofing systems carry manufacturer warranties of 30–50 years on shingles or metal panels, plus a 5-year workmanship guarantee. High-capacity aluminum and steel gutters come with 20- to 25-year material warranties and the same 5-year workmanship coverage. Copper gutters have 50-year material warranties. We provide all documentation upon project completion.
