"Fast response to request for quote. Thorough explanation of repair needed & cost of the job. Prompt & efficient repair of gutters & replacement of gutter guards."
"Our worker, Paul, arrived mid afternoon. He worked through a short downpour and continued into the early evening in the dark! He replaced the gutters, covers and downspouts on the entire house! It looks amazing!"
"The project replaced LeafFilter gutter covers w/ GutterHelmut. GutterHelmet is far superior to LF. LF clogs so while the gutters are protected, the rainwater spills off of the cover onto the ground below. My high roof has had GH for 20 years, no problem. My low roof had LF for 16 years but no more. The removal/installation went smoothly w/ a friendly, competent crew."
"Great! Jason and Alex arrived on time, cleaned front gutter and checked rear gutter, caulked where needed, and replaced shingles lost to high winds. They provided photo records of inspection and repairs. I would hire again."
"Omni Roofing was excellent! They came out to view the gutter work needed. They gave me multiple options for repairing the gutter and fascia, which I appreciate. They did not try to upsell or give me work that wasn't necessary, but offered their opinions for the most sensible plan, based on the situation. The work they did was very well done, even added a piece to my gutter to keep the water off of the fascia. They cleaned up the work area beautifully. I highly recommend Omni Roofing and will happily recommend them to my friends."
"It went extremely well from the acquiring of the permit (which was a chore) to the completion of the deck. Marc and his team were professional from beginning to end. I would highly recommend them. They were meticulous. They also replaced some gutters for us. Marc went above and beyond professionalism when we first met in giving us details about our deck purchase. He answered all our questions and showed us samples and examples of his work."

Gutter Repair and Replacement FAQs, answered by experts
Any small amount of standing water can be damaging to your gutters. It’s recommended that a ¼ inch puddle or more should be addressed. Failure to keep water from pooling in your gutters can result in clogs, algae growth, and pests that damage your gutters over time.
On average, gutters need to be replaced every 20 years. Unprotected gutters in more extreme weather conditions are more prone to breaking and may need to be replaced sooner. Meanwhile, proper maintenance can extend your gutter’s life span even further. That said, proper installation, gutter hangers to provide additional support, and gutter guards or helmets all play an important role in how long your gutters last.
If your gutters get overwhelmed every time it rains, adding an extra downspout is a solution. First, you'll need to decide where to add the downspout. If your current setup only has a single downspout, one option is to place a new one at the opposite end of the gutter. If you already have a downspout at each end, adding a third one in the middle can help to lighten the load.
You can hire a professional to add a downspout yourself by cutting into the existing gutter and attaching the necessary parts, such as an outlet and brackets.
The trick to getting gleaming gutters can vary based on the material of your gutters. Aluminum gutters can often be restored to pristine condition by using a cloth to scrub them with a solution consisting of 1 cup of vinegar and 1 cup of water. Vinyl gutters can be whitened using dish soap and water. For deeply stained vinyl gutters, adding bleach with water and dish soap may help to remove black streaks. Many retailers sell premixed gutter sprays. Applying cleaning solutions to dry gutters before rinsing can help cleaners attach to dirt and grime for easier removal.
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.
