Q: If I’m replacing the roof, should I also replace the gutters?

• <div><p>If you&rsquo;re replacing your roof, you don&rsquo;t need to worry about replacing your gutters as long as they&rsquo;re functional and in good condition. Some roofers may recommend temporarily removing gutters to prevent them from damage during a roof replacement, but the right professional can reduce this risk. Replacing your gutters would only be necessary if your gutters are in bad shape and already need replacing. </p></div>

• <div><p>At least once a year&mdash;or more in areas with heavy foliage or frequent storms.</p></div>

Q: Can a gutter have too much slope?

• <div><p>Yes. Excessive pitch in gutters can cause water to flow too rapidly, leading to a decrease in the gutter's water-holding capacity; consequently, during heavy rainstorms, water may awkwardly splash outside the gutters. Ideally, you should aim for a quarter-inch of gutter slope for every 10 feet of gutter run. However, it's important to note that this guideline may vary depending on your home's structure and the type of gutters being installed.</p></div>

Q: How can I hang Christmas lights without damaging my gutters?

• <div><p>Several options for hanging Christmas lights won't damage gutters. Using shingle clips avoids any hardware contact with them, and using plastic gutter clips minimizes the likelihood of scratching gutters. Remember not to rest a ladder, especially a metal one, against the gutters, and use a ladder stand-off device or stabilizer if you need to use an extension ladder. </p></div>

Excellent work. But it took awhile to get an appointment. I think John is in such demand (probably because he does very good work) that it is a little frustrating. The carpet was removed and taken away, and the refinishing project went very well. Clean, neat and professional work.
