FAQs
Why is it important to install gutter guards in McMinnville's climate?
McMinnville receives steady rainfall for much of the year and is surrounded by fir, oak, and maple trees that shed needles, leaves, and twigs. Without guards, this debris quickly clogs open gutters, causing water to overflow, rot fascia boards, and create slippery walkways. Gutter guards form a barrier that lets water in but keeps debris out, so your system can channel rainwater safely away from the roof and foundation. They also help reduce moss growth and ice dams by allowing gutters to dry out faster between storms.
How do I know if my gutters need to be replaced instead of repaired?
You may only need a repair if you have one or two isolated leaks or minor slope issues. A full replacement is recommended when you notice persistent problems such as sagging sections, rust holes, peeling paint beneath the eaves, water stains on interior walls, or landscaping erosion near the foundation. If your gutters are more than 20 years old or made of thin steel that has begun to corrode, replacement is usually more cost-effective than repeated patchwork. Our technicians provide a free inspection and moisture report so you can make an informed decision.
What types of gutter guard systems do you offer and which one is best for my home?
We install three main styles: (1) stainless-steel micro-mesh, (2) heavy-duty perforated aluminum, and (3) economical foam inserts. Micro-mesh provides the highest filtration, blocking even pine needles and roof grit—ideal if your property is surrounded by evergreens. Perforated aluminum handles high water volumes, making it a solid choice for steep roofs or homes with large valleys. Foam inserts are budget-friendly and perform well where leaf fall is moderate. During our on-site consultation we evaluate roof pitch, tree coverage, and budget to recommend the most effective system for your specific situation.
How long does a gutter replacement or guard installation usually take?
For a typical single-story residence, installing gutter guards on existing gutters takes 3–6 hours. If you need a full gutter replacement, most jobs are completed in one day, including removal of the old gutters and cleanup. Larger or multi-story homes, or projects that involve fascia repair, may require an additional day. We’ll give you a precise timeline before work begins and keep you updated throughout the process.
Will new gutters and guards affect the appearance or value of my house?
Yes—in a positive way. We custom-form seamless aluminum or copper gutters on-site and color-match them to your siding or trim for a clean, integrated look. Hidden hangers keep fasteners out of sight, and the low-profile guard designs sit flush with the roofline. Beyond curb appeal, properly functioning gutters protect siding, windows, and the foundation from moisture damage, which helps preserve—and often increase—property value. Many realtors note that newer gutter systems are a selling point during home listings and inspections.
Do you offer warranties or maintenance plans for gutter guards and replacements?
All of our aluminum gutters come with a 20-year material warranty, while copper systems carry up to 40 years of coverage. Micro-mesh and perforated aluminum guards include a lifetime no-clog guarantee from the manufacturer. In addition, we back every installation with a 5-year workmanship warranty. For added convenience, we offer annual and semi-annual maintenance plans that include an inspection, light cleaning, and a performance report, ensuring your gutters keep working flawlessly through McMinnville’s wet seasons.
