Most gutter problems come from three things: wrong size, wrong pitch, or clogged debris. Fort Hill Roofing & Maintenance calculates gutter capacity based on your roof area, local rainfall intensity, and downspout placement. Properly sized and pitched gutters handle Fort Hill's worst rain without overflowing.
We install 5-inch and 6-inch seamless K-style gutters. Standard homes get 5-inch. Larger roof areas, steeper pitches, or high-volume drainage zones get 6-inch with oversized 3x4-inch downspouts. Sizing matters. Undersized gutters overflow, undersized downspouts back up.
Our Gutter Installation Process
Measure & Calculate
We inspect your current gutters and fascia, measure your roof's effective drainage area, and calculate the gutter size and downspout placement needed to handle Fort Hill's rainfall. You get an honest recommendation, repair or replace.
Custom Forming
Seamless means exactly that. Every section is one continuous piece formed on-site. Fewer joints means fewer potential leak points. Our portable equipment handles runs up to 100 feet in a single piece.
Professional Installation
Gutters installed with correct pitch, secure hangers, sealed end caps, and properly sized downspouts. If your existing fascia is soft or damaged, we replace it before hanging the new gutters. No point putting new gutters on rotten wood.
Cleanup & Test
After installation, we run water through the system to verify proper flow and check for leaks at every connection point. Old gutters removed and hauled off. Job site clean.
