Gutter Installation & Repair
Protect your home's foundation with properly functioning gutters and downspouts.
Why Your Gutters Matter
Your gutters might not seem important until they stop working. But when gutters fail, water pours off your roof and pools around your foundation. Over time, this causes serious problems like foundation cracks, basement flooding, landscape erosion, and even structural damage to your home.
Good gutters direct water away from your home and protect your investment. Bad gutters, or no gutters at all, can cost you thousands in water damage repairs. That's why we offer complete gutter installation and repair services to homeowners throughout Berkeley, CA.
Whether you need new gutters installed, existing gutters repaired, or just routine maintenance, we're here to help keep your home dry and protected.

Signs You Need Gutter Repair
How do you know if your gutters need attention? Watch for these warning signs:
Water Overflow During Rain
If water spills over the sides of your gutters during storms, they're either clogged or not sized correctly for your roof. Either way, this needs to be fixed.
Sagging or Pulling Away
Gutters should be firmly attached to your fascia board. If you see sections sagging or pulling away from the house, the fasteners have failed and need replacement.
Rust, Holes, or Cracks
Small leaks turn into big problems. If your gutters are rusting through or developing cracks, it's time for repairs or replacement before water damage occurs.
Water Pooling Near Foundation
If you see water collecting around your home's foundation after it rains, your gutters aren't doing their job. This is a serious issue that needs immediate attention.
Don't wait until you have foundation problems or water in your basement. If you notice any of these signs, call us for an inspection. We also provide comprehensive roof inspections that include gutter evaluations.
Gutter Materials and Options
We install several types of gutters to match your home's style and budget:
Aluminum gutters are the most popular choice. They're lightweight, affordable, and won't rust. They come in many colors to match your home's trim.
Copper gutters provide a distinctive look and will last for decades. They develop a natural patina over time that many homeowners love.
Steel gutters are extremely durable and can handle heavy water flow. They're a good choice for areas with frequent storms.
We also install gutter guards to keep leaves and debris out. While no guard is completely maintenance-free, they significantly reduce how often you need to clean your gutters.
