"I had gutter helmet installed 20 years ago and it has been a lifesaver - no gutter cleaning! My house backs up to woods, so lots of tall trees, leaves and pollen. With gutters at 2 and 3 stories, cleaning was necessary, but expensive before Gutter Helmet installation. Today, I had a section of helmet repaired due to damage from a fallen limb. The repair crew was great. They made the necessary repairs and cleaned and checked the gutters on the rest of the house. Gutter Helmet works great and in the event of problems the company is very responsive."
"This company is fantastic. From their customer service reps ( Brittany is so friendly!) to their technicians (Mikey and Will). They were very easy to communicate with, both thru text, email and phone. Very prompt. They even called to offer a sooner date for service due to cancellations. We ended up having to reschedule due to high wind, but they still came out just to double check it wasn't possible, called me from the van to let me know they would need to reschedule. Brittany called to book the new appointment within an hour and they were able to still do the service the same week. Mikey and Will were the technicians who did the service. They were very polite, very good at explaining the entire process, and wore their masks the entire time. They showed before and after pictures of everything they did, plus emails me copies of everything. They were great at explaining extra services ( such as we had an old satellite dish removed) and offering their annual protection program without it being a pushy sales thing. We did purchase their annual roof/gutter protection plan because the company was fantastic and we definitely want to continue to use them. High recommend!"
"This was a great company and I would recommend them to anyone without a doubt. They were timely and didn't delay the start date for the work. The workers stayed on the deck until it was completely replaced. They also replace my gate in the deal. After the job was done they completely cleaned up all of the debris making my yard looked as if there was no work done. I was totally, completely satisfied with their work. "

Gutter Repair and Replacement FAQs, answered by experts
Most homes will sustain water damage without gutters. When a home doesn't have gutters, water that runs off the roof will splash down to the ground to create foundation damage, rotting trim, rotting fascia, and soil erosion. A broken or compromised gutter system can be just as damaging as having no gutters. That's why it's essential to talk to roofing pros about how to fix gutters pulling away from house as soon as you notice an issue.
Frequently, when water flows over gutters, it indicates a potential clog, necessitating cleaning. For instance, if a twig becomes lodged in the downspout, it can lead to a traffic jam, causing more leaves and sticks to accumulate. Another potential issue is an incorrect pitch, as gutters should channel water toward the downspout. If you observe water overflowing the end cap or leaking through it, it suggests that your gutters are improperly tilted.
Repairs typically take 1-3 hours, depending on the extent of the damage.
Regular cleaning, checking for leaks, and ensuring that downspouts direct water away from the foundation help prolong gutter life.
Costs depend on gutter length, damage severity, and labor rates.
