New construction

Gutters on a Lynn Haven new build, booked around the builder

On a house under construction, the gutters go up once the roof covering and the fascia are finished. Where the fascia is to be painted, paint it first, because the gutter covers most of its face. We schedule the gutters around the builder and the other trades, not the other way round.

  • What to send

    The address, the date the roof and fascia will be done, and the name and number of the person to call on site.

  • Where the drive and walks will go

    Downspouts are placed with the finished yard in mind. Mark where the driveway, the walks and any planting beds will be, so no downspout empties onto a drive.

  • A date that slips

    If the roof or trim runs late, call the office and the gutters move to a new date.

  • Owner-builders

    An owner building their own house books the same way as a builder, with the ready date and a number to call.

Scope

What changes the size of a new-build gutter job

Two houses of the same floor area can need very different gutter work. The quote follows the roof, not the square footage.

  • Length of eave

    The number of feet of roof edge that sheds water, which grows with every bump-out, porch and wing.

  • Corners

    Each inside or outside corner is a mitered joint. A roof with many turns has more of them than a plain rectangle.

  • Height

    A second story or a steep roof takes more setup than a single-story eave.

  • Downspouts

    How many outlets the roof needs, and how far each downspout runs to the ground.

Additions and rebuilt sections of a house

A new addition gets its own seamless runs, formed to its roof edges. Where the addition's roof meets the old roof, its gutter can drain into its own downspout or tie into an existing run, depending on which way the water needs to go.

An addition can also change where water gathers. A new valley between the old roof and the new one sends water from both slopes to one short stretch of eave, and an outlet placed there keeps that corner from spilling over. When the older part of the house has sectional or worn gutters, the whole house can be done together so every run matches.

Two-story new builds

On a two-story house, some upper runs drain onto a lower roof instead of all the way to the ground. That water then joins the lower gutter, which has to carry both roofs, so its outlets are placed with the upper downspout in mind. Tell us which roofs on the house step down onto others, since that decides where the lower gutters need their outlets.

Decide early

Choices to make before the gutters go up

  • Guards from day one

    Guards can be fitted as the new gutters go up, which saves a second trip later.

  • Half-round on the street side

    A custom house can carry half-round in aluminum or copper across the front and the 6-inch standard on the back and sides.

  • Extra outlets

    A roof with long eaves can be given more downspouts at the start instead of after the first overflow.

  • Porches and garages

    A covered porch, a detached garage or a workshop on the lot can be done on the same schedule as the house.

Replacing old gutters

Taking down old or sectional gutters in Lynn Haven

On a house that already has gutters, replacement means the whole system comes off and seamless runs go up in its place. That makes sense when the problems are spread along the gutter rather than sitting in one spot.

  • What comes down

    The old gutters, their hangers and the downspouts are removed and hauled away, so nothing is left at the house.

  • What goes up

    Seamless gutter formed on site to each roof edge, hung with a steady fall toward its outlets.

  • Color

    The new gutters are matched to the trim, which is a chance to change a color that never suited the house.

Repair or replace

When the old gutters can stay

  • Keep and repair

    One leaking corner, one loose section, a single dented piece, or a downspout that has come apart.

  • Replace

    Leaks at joint after joint, rust through the bottom of the trough, hangers failing along the length, or a system that no longer matches after an addition.

Upkeep

Cleaning, guards and commercial work

  • Cleaning

    Gutters are cleared by hand and the downspouts flushed, and the debris is carried away.

  • Guards on existing gutters

    Guards go over gutters that are already up, after they are cleaned and any repairs are made.

  • Commercial buildings

    Offices, shops and warehouses get the same service, booked around business hours.

Downspouts

Downspouts on a new lot

Bare soil around a new house washes out easily under a downspout until grass or beds take hold. Where each downspout lets its water go matters most in that first stretch.

  • Splash blocks

    A block under the downspout spreads the water out as it lands.

  • Extensions

    An extension carries the water past a walk or a new bed before it is let go.

  • Moved or added later

    Once the yard is finished, a downspout can be moved to a better corner, or another added to a long run.

  • Above ground only

    That work stops at the downspout. We do not lay underground drains, install French drains or grade a yard.

FAQ

Lynn Haven gutter questions

Have another question? Call (850) 819-6031.

Should gutters go up before the sod and plants?
Before is easier. With the gutters up, you can see where each downspout lets water out and plant around those spots, instead of moving a downspout after the beds are in.
Do new gutters need a new downspout layout?
Not always. Old outlet spots that drain well can be kept. Any that dump water onto a drive or a walk can move, since the new runs are cut to order anyway.
What does copper look like as it ages?
It goes up bright, darkens to brown, and over the years can turn green. It is left unpainted.
Can old gutters go back up after a re-roof?
If they came through the re-roof straight and tight, they can be rehung and resealed. If they were bent, kinked or left loose on the ground, new seamless runs are the fix, formed to the new roof edge.
Do you clean gutters on a newly built house?
Yes. Construction leaves grit, shingle granules, nails and scraps of trim in new gutters, and a hand cleaning once the last trade is done clears them out before they wash into the downspouts.
