Get matched with top gutter cleaning pros in Holtville, CA

While you don't technically need different gutters for metal roofs than you do for other types of roofs, most metal roofs use a half-round or K-style gutter system. On top of that, your gutters will need more brackets than homes that have shingle roofs since the gutters won’t fit as flush against the fascia as they would against traditional roofing systems, where they’re installed to the roof deck.

Gutter guards can effectively reduce debris buildup and minimize maintenance, but if you don't get the right type for your house, you can run into issues. Some types of guards can clog with small debris like pine needles, which require occasional cleaning. High-quality guards may be expensive, and improper installation can impact water flow. Certain guards may not perform well in heavy rain, causing water to overshoot the gutter.

Underground downspouts refer to the sections of downspout extensions that lead away from your home and gutter system. While they cost more than traditional extensions, they can provide several benefits, such as less frequent damage and no need to move them for lawn care tasks. Whether they're worth it or not depends on your budget at installation time and how much convenience they'll add to your situation.

You can start by looking for gutter companies in your area with several years of experience, the proper licensing and certifications, and positive customer reviews. We recommend speaking with a few gutter companies and comparing price quotes before hiring a gutter installation company. Ask whether the gutter installer will perform an in-person or virtual consultation ahead of installation, giving preference to teams that visit your home. You can also ask for customer references and warranty information to find the best value overall.
