Sagging gutters
Alford gutters that sag or pull off the fascia
A gutter hangs from the fascia, the board along the roof edge, on hangers spaced along its length. When a hanger loosens or pulls out, the stretch it held drops, and the added weight pulls harder on the hangers next to it.
Fixing a sag means putting that support back and restoring the fall toward the downspout. A sag close to an outlet can also pull the downspout loose where it joins the gutter, so the pipe is refitted and sealed as part of the same repair.
Loose hangers
Hangers that have backed out are refastened into the fascia.
Hangers too far apart
Extra hangers are added where the spacing left the gutter without enough support.
Lost slope
The run is reset with a steady fall toward its outlet.
A run hanging away from the roof
The gutter is drawn back against the fascia along its full length and fastened again.
Sagging along most of the building
When the gutter sags in stretch after stretch, or drops again soon after new hangers go in, new gutters are quoted instead.
What you see
Clues that a run has dropped
Any of these points to a stretch that has lost its support or its slope. Mention it when you contact us.
Spill at one point
Water comes over the front at one spot along the run instead of reaching the outlet.
A gap at the roof edge
Daylight shows between the back of the gutter and the fascia.
A bowed gutter line
A dip you can see when you look along the run from one end.
Keeping a rehung gutter in place
A trough full of wet leaves and grit is heavy, and that weight hangs on the same hangers that hold the gutter up. Once a sag is fixed, keeping the gutter clear takes load off them. Trimming branches that hang over the run is not our work, but it slows how fast the trough refills. A hand cleaning with the downspouts flushed can be booked with the repair, and guards can go over the rehung run to cut down how much collects in it between cleanings.
Your quote
What a sag repair quote covers
A repair is quoted as one price for the work. The things that change it:
Length of the low stretch
A short dip near one hanger is a smaller job than a run that has dropped along a whole wall.
How high it hangs
An upper-story gutter takes more setup than one over a porch.
Other faults on the run
A dripping corner or a loose downspout on the same gutter can be fixed at the same time.
New gutters
How new gutters look on an Alford house
Gutters run the length of every eave, so they are part of how the front of a house looks. New seamless gutters are formed on site, and each run is cut to its roof edge, so there are no seams breaking up a long wall.
A straight, even gutter line also depends on how it is hung. Each run is set with a slight fall toward its outlet, too slight to catch the eye from the street, so the gutter reads as a straight line along the roof.
Downspouts in the same color
Downspouts, elbows and extensions come in a matching color and are placed at corners where the roof shape allows, not across the middle of the front wall.
Six-inch or half-round
Six-inch gutter is our standard. Half-round gutter, in aluminum or copper, has a rounded profile for a house where that shape fits.
Old gutters taken away
If new gutters are replacing old ones, the old system is taken down and hauled away.
Other gutter work
Cleaning, guards, downspouts and commercial gutters
Guards
Fitted over existing gutters once they are clean and any sagging or leaking stretch is fixed.
Leaks
Dripping corners, seams and outlets are resealed, or the failed piece is replaced.
Downspouts
Moved, extended or added so water lands away from the house. We do not do underground drainage or yard grading.
Storm damage
Runs knocked loose are refastened or replaced, and the repair quote comes in writing so it can go to an insurer.
Commercial buildings
Offices, shops, restaurants and warehouses get the same work, booked around business hours.
Rentals and additions
Landlords and property managers can have several addresses looked at on one visit, with one quote covering them all. When a house gains an addition or a new porch, the new roof edge can get a seamless run of its own. For an addition still being built, the gutters are booked around the builder once the roof edge is finished.
What to mention for a quote
Tell us whether you want a repair or new gutters. For a sag, say which wall it is on, roughly how long the low stretch is, and whether it hangs over a door or a walk where the spill lands on people. For new gutters, tell us which edges should be covered, whether you have a color in mind, and whether the house has gutters now. If the trim is about to be repainted, give us the new color so the gutters match the finished house. If it is a rental or a commercial building, give us the name and number of whoever will let us in.
