"I am a senior with a background in construction. After reviewing many contractors and speaking with some of them, I immediately knew I hit the jackpot when I spoke to Danny.
1. He knew exactly what I needed and wanted done when I first spoke to him. This entailed the replacement, repair, and installation of the items listed above with attention to quality in materials, prevention of future problems, a fair price, and a commitment to starting and showing up once the job was initiated. Danny exceeded every expectation in these regards! 2. I silently knew in advance manufacturers, quality and cost of exterior doors (including the french door), storm doors, door locks and deadbolts, leak-proof door sills for 6 inch exterior walls and a leak-proof barrier on the bottom of the door frames. Without knowing of my preferences, Danny suggested the identical manufacturers and materials I had in mind. At this juncture, we met and I hired Danny to perform the work. 3. I am beyond pleased with the outcome of Danny's effort on this project. As an example of his integrity, he asked me to trust him in the design and installation of an exterior octagonal window in a bathroom. My wife and I were literally blown away with a handcrafted symmetrical waterproof tunnel and inside wall frame he created - more akin to an artistic piece than a window. 4. Inside work was always minimally invasive using tarps and soft shoes rather than work boots. Outside and inside cleanup at the end of each work day was respectfully performed leaving no mess. I would recommend Danny to anyone requiring any kind of interior or exterior installation, modification, or repair as I have seen firsthand examples of his experience, skills, and personal and business ethics. In fact, Danny is presently working on costs to replace our roof."
Gutter Repair and Replacement FAQs, answered by experts
Yes, gutter repair is almost always worth the investment. Some homeowners believe that gutter repairs are only to improve the home’s curb appeal, but gutters play a pivotal role in protecting your foundation from damage and structural instability, and they also prevent water damage to your soffits, fascia, roof, and exterior walls. You will pay an average of around $400 to have your gutters professionally repaired, but it’s worth it even for the peace of mind of knowing that one of your largest investments is adequately protected from the elements.
It is possible to repair your own gutters, but we don’t recommend it. First, gutters need to sit at a precise slope to direct water toward the downspouts but also appear level from the yard, and this task is challenging to get right through DIY gutter repair. Second, any mistakes you make could be costly if they cause water damage or foundation damage. It might seem unnecessary to spend $400 on professional gutter repair, but it pales in comparison to what you might pay if you make a mistake doing the work yourself.
The most common problem with gutters is clogging from debris like leaves, blossoms, and seeds from surrounding trees. This debris can block downspouts, leading to improper drainage and water overflow.
Other common issues include:
Leaks and holes, which can often be repaired with gutter sealant or caulk.
Rust, sagging, or detachment from the roofline.
Damage from strong storms.
Improperly pitched gutters that don't drain correctly.
Regular cleaning in the spring and fall is the best way to prevent most of these problems. You may need to clean them more often during periods of heavy leaf fall.
It’s technically possible to remove some soffit material without removing your gutters, but it’s usually a good idea to remove gutters, fascia, and soffit and then reinstall them in the opposite order. Replacing soffits without removing gutters is likely to leave you with a less professional and clean appearance, and you’re more likely to do damage to your gutters and fascia boards in the process.
Calcium chloride does not do significant damage to gutters when used properly and in moderate amounts. If you use too much too frequently, it could eventually cause corrosion in your gutters. Rock salt will harm your gutters, though.
