FAQs
Why might my existing gutters need full replacement instead of repair?
Older gutters in Petros are frequently made of thin-gauge aluminum or even steel that has begun to rust, pull away from the fascia, or develop pin-hole leaks at the seams. Once sections are sagging or corroded, patching only postpones inevitable failure and can allow hidden water damage to the roof deck and soffit. Our seasoned technicians inspect slope, hangers, fascia integrity, and downspout capacity; if more than 25-30 % of the system is compromised, a complete replacement is the safest and most economical long-term solution.
Which gutter materials and profiles do you recommend for the weather we get in Petros?
For most homes we specify seamless 0.032" K-style aluminum because it resists rust, handles our 40–60 in. annual rainfall, and is economical. Where pine trees shed needles or where snow slides are common, 6-inch seamless aluminum or 5-inch copper half-rounds paired with snow guards perform best. Copper costs more up-front but can last 50+ years and complements historic homes downtown. All materials we install meet or exceed Tennessee and Anderson County building codes.
How long does a typical gutter replacement take and what steps are involved?
A standard single-story, 2000 sq ft home takes one full workday. First, we protect landscaping and remove old gutter runs and downspouts. Next, we inspect and re-secure fascia boards and replace any rotted wood. Our roll-forming machine then fabricates seamless troughs on-site to exact lengths. Technicians attach hidden hangers every 24–30 in., set the proper ¼-inch-per-10-ft slope, seal end-caps, and attach downspouts with corrugated elbows. Last, we water-test the system, clean the site thoroughly, and haul away debris.
Will new gutters affect my roof, shingles, or siding?
No. Gutters are mounted to the fascia board, not the roofing itself. Our crews use screws, never nails, so shingles remain untouched. Where drip-edge metal is missing or damaged we can replace it to ensure correct water shedding into the new gutters. Downspouts are fastened with color-matched straps that do not penetrate weather-barrier layers. Any existing siding penetrations are sealed with exterior-grade silicone to prevent leaks.
What warranties or maintenance options do you provide with gutter replacements?
All replacements include a 20-year manufacturer finish warranty on aluminum or a 50-year material warranty on copper. Our workmanship is warrantied for 5 years against leaks, separation, or improper pitch. For added peace of mind, customers can enroll in our Annual Flow-Check Plan: once a year we clear debris, flush downspouts, tighten hangers, and reseal joints as needed at a discounted rate.
How much does gutter replacement cost in Petros and what factors influence the price?
Prices typically range from $7 to $14 per linear foot for 5-inch seamless aluminum and $25+ per foot for copper. Total investment depends on the perimeter footage, number of stories, fascia repairs, downspout length, and add-ons like leaf guards or rain barrels. Steeper roofs or multi-level homes require additional safety staging. We provide free on-site measurements and a transparent, itemized estimate before any work begins.
