FAQs
What is a precision-fit gutter system and how does it differ from standard sectional gutters?
A precision-fit system is custom fabricated on-site to the exact length of each eave on your home. Because it is seamless, there are no joints every 10 feet the way there are with store-bought sectional gutters, which means far fewer leak points, stronger structural integrity, and a cleaner curb-appeal. We measure your Hixson roofline with digital tools, run the coil metal through a portable forming machine, and create one continuous trough that is attached with hidden hangers. The result is a gutter that fits your fascia perfectly, handles higher water volumes, and lasts longer than pieced-together systems.
How do I know if my Hixson home needs gutter replacement or just a repair?
Signs that usually call for a full replacement include widespread rust or corrosion, sagging troughs, nail-or screw-hole enlargement, multiple seam leaks, or sections that have pulled away from the fascia. If only one or two isolated joints leak or a single downspout is clogged, a repair may be enough. During our free inspection we check slope, hardware spacing, fascia condition, and water-staining on siding or foundation. We then provide photographs and explain whether a spot repair will restore performance or whether age and damage justify new seamless gutters.
What gutter materials and profiles do you install in the Hixson area?
We primarily install 5-inch and 6-inch K-Style aluminum gutters because they balance capacity, weight, and cost for most Tennessee rainfall events. For larger roofs or metal-roof run-off we also offer 7-inch commercial K-Style and 6-inch half-round profiles. Material options include baked-enamel aluminum in more than 30 colors, copper, and galvalume steel. All downspouts are oversized (3"×4" for 6-inch gutters) for better debris passage. Gutter guard screens, solid covers, and rain-barrel diverters can be added during installation.
How long does a typical gutter replacement take, and will it disrupt my daily routine?
Most single-family homes in Hixson are completed in one day: removal of old gutters in the morning, fabrication and installation after lunch, and final cleanup before we leave. Larger or three-story homes may require a second day, especially if we are also replacing fascia or drip-edge metal. Because all fabrication is done on site, there is no wait for factory orders. You do not need to be home the whole time, but we ask that vehicles be moved away from the roofline and pets kept indoors for safety. We remove all old metal and nails and perform a magnetic sweep of the yard so you can resume normal activities immediately.
Are your roofing and gutter installations backed by a warranty?
Yes. All new seamless aluminum gutters come with a 20-year manufacturer’s finish warranty against chalking, peeling, and cracking, plus our own 5-year workmanship warranty that covers leaks, sagging, and attachment failures. Copper systems carry a lifetime material warranty. If we install roof-edge drip metal or repair shingles during the project, that work is covered under the same 5-year labor guarantee. Should you sell your Hixson home, the workmanship warranty transfers once to the next homeowner within the warranty period.
Do you offer free inspections and estimates in Hixson, and what affects the final cost?
We provide complimentary on-site inspections and written estimates anywhere in Hixson and surrounding Hamilton County. Cost is driven by gutter footage, the number and height of stories, choice of material (aluminum vs. copper), downspout size, and add-ons such as gutter guards or fascia replacement. Accessibility issues—steep roofs, landscaping obstacles, or the need for lift equipment—can also affect pricing. After measuring we give you a line-item proposal so you can see exactly where your investment goes, and we offer financing options for qualified homeowners.
