gutters

improved gutter system

Your residential gutter system plays a vital role in the health and comfort of your home, primarily by directing rainwater away, preventing erosion, mold, and the weakening of your foundation.  

On the other hand, commercial buildings have a larger roof area, and the extra runoff requires a larger and stronger gutter system.

The team at Pro Roofers LLC specializes in many types of custom gutter installations – from embossed gutters and accessories to gutter protection, downspouts, and drain systems. If you want the job done right the first time, our team can handle it.

Residential Gutters

Your gutter system guides rainwater away from your house to prevent it from settling around the foundation and seeping into your interior walls and basement. A properly functioning gutter system is an important investment for your home, but it’s easy to overlook. Clogged gutters can lead to costly water damage to your soffits, fascia, and exterior paint. It can also cause damage to landscaping and even corrosion and erosion of your home’s foundation. 

Unlike traditional gutters, seamless or “continuous” gutter systems are custom built on-site in precise lengths for your home. The lack of seams means no chance of leaks.

Another advantage of seamless gutter systems is their strength. Rain, snow, and ice place much strain on your gutter system, causing seams to flex and eventually leak.

We Give Quality Service

At Pro Roofers LLC, we use only the most up-to-date installation methods and materials. This includes using top-of-the-line gutter hangers with a pull strength of 255 pounds. These gutter hangers are mounted using zinc-coated screws to avoid corrosion. All our endcaps and miters are sealed with self-leveling gutter sealant, which has excellent bonding properties and flattens as it dries to help prevent damming on inside and outside corner miters.
We attach downspouts to the gutter system using an aluminum drop-in cup. These cups allow water to flow while also helping to support the downspout and gutter if the spout ever comes loose from the house. This prevents the swinging of the spout from ripping the gutter run itself.

Finally, all the screws used in miters, downspouts, and elbows and the straps that attach the gutter system to the house are color-matched to the system and installed in proper locations to prevent flow leaks from the spouts and to enhance the aesthetic effect.

The gutters we install will provide years of faithful service and prevent costly repairs to your home’s foundation. Guards will protect your home from debris such as leaves, twigs and even shingle grit, and help prevent damage to siding and other exterior features on your home.

Commercial Gutter Installation

Your commercial property deserves the same protection from water damage as any residential structure. We offer an installation that lasts – this means your facility will have a sturdy gutter that will serve effectively for many years to come.

Commercial gutter systems are not designed the same as residential gutters. While they share some similarities, the styles, sizes, and durability requirements differ significantly. Commercial buildings, for example, have different building code requirements, depending on city or county regulations.

Commercial gutters come in several styles. K-style gutters are most often used for residences, while U-shaped is a popular choice for copper guttering. The K-style has a profile that resembles a “K” and resembles crown molding when installed. This style can be used for commercial applications and provides an attractive appearance.

The most frequently used style of gutters for commercial applications is the box gutter system. The shape allows for greater water volume than a similarly sized K-style gutter. This provides additional protection for larger buildings with higher water runoff. While box guttering is slightly more prone to collecting debris, most commercial buildings do not have large trees overhead to present those kinds of problems. For commercial buildings that do have leaf or debris issues, guards can be added to reduce buildup and maintenance problems.

Commercial gutters can be manufactured in a variety of sizes but most often come in 6-inch widths to accommodate the extra runoff found on a commercial roof.

Quality Materials

Commercial gutter systems feature high durability due to the use of 24-gauge galvanized steel or heavy aluminum. Steel offers exceptional durability but is also heavy and must be installed properly to avoid pulling away from the building under heavy use. Aluminum is available in different gauges and thicknesses and provides a lighter weight corrosion resistance.

Copper guttering is another option for commercial use. Despite being used mostly in residential applications due to its appearance, it can add a pleasant aesthetic to commercial buildings. Over time the copper develops a patina that adds a unique look to the property. Vinyl is a low-cost alternative for residential applications but is not recommended for commercial buildings.

Building codes vary by location, but due to the size of commercial buildings, gutter systems are usually covered under local building regulations. These requirements normally involve the size and material of the gutter used. Some areas also place restrictions on where the runoff is directed to reduce flooding to nearby buildings or sewer systems.

Gutter Systems

Your gutter system plays a vital role in the health and integrity of your home. Gutter systems direct the rainwater from storms and melting snow away from your home the ground surrounding it. Keeping this moisture away from your foundation and basement beneath your home prevents erosion and mold, as well as the weakening of your foundation.

Rain gutters help prevent damage to your landscaping, steps, decks, and pavers by eliminating the sheets of water that fall from your roofline. Damage can even be prevented to your stucco, masonry, siding, doors, thresholds, and garage doors with a professionally installed gutter system.

Your home is likely the most significant investment you’ll make, and you naturally want to protect it. The team of experts at Pro Roofers LLC can install a custom-fit seamless gutter system that can divert water safely away from your home if your gutters aren’t performing correctly.

Experts In Gutter Systems

Our gutter systems are made from a single length of heavy-gauge aluminum and fabricated on-site to ensure it is free of dents and always a perfect fit. The seamless design minimizes the risk of leaks and enhances the overall strength of your gutters, providing a superior appearance and better protection versus traditional sectional gutter systems.

If necessary, we can install leaf-proof guards along with your new seamless gutters to prevent leaves, sticks, and other debris from clogging them and causing severe water damage to your gutter system, roofline, and property.

Seamless gutters are extremely strong and resilient. Their curved edges are designed to resist almost all forms of damage, prevent clogs, and ensure that rainwater flows directly into the gutter and the downspout. The lack of seams practically eliminates the chance of leaks occurring in the system. Their durability means you won’t have to repair them as often as you would regular gutters.

During the winter months, gutter leaks can cause sharp icicles to form, which can be a hazard to you and your family. Leaks from gutters can also cause staining and possible damage to the exterior and structure of your house. These issues are no longer an issue with a seamless system.

Gutter Accessories

Your home is the most significant investment you’re likely ever to make, so it makes sense that gutter accessories should not only protect it but also enhance the character and value at the same time. At Pro Roofers LLC, we offer a wide variety of gutter accessories.

Embossed Gutters

Embossed gutters incorporate a visually appealing pattern into the gutter itself, giving it added strength and a unique appearance. These gutters add value and character to your home by creating a beautiful exterior crown molding effect

Leader Head Gutter

Also known as conductor heads, leader heads enhance the beauty and architectural style of any building. They are traditionally installed under the soffit, but they’re far more than just decorative additions. By letting air into the system, they help water drain faster and with less noise. They also allow several downspouts to be combined into one larger one. Leader heads also act as an exit point for debris and an overflow point for water.

Rain Chain Gutter

A beautiful and functional alternative to traditional closed downspouts, rain chains are a unique way to add character to your gutter system. They break the fall of the water, guiding it into a basin or even a rain barrel for storage. Rain chains sound great and make an elegant outdoor accessory.

Rain Barrel

Decorative rain barrels can be an attractive addition to your home – and saving rain is an environmentally friendly option! Rain barrels help ease stormwater overflow problems, decrease demand on municipal water, and help prevent rain from becoming polluted stormwater. Since rain does not contain chemicals added by the city system or leached from old pipes, it’s naturally soft, oxygenated, and pH-neutral.

Bubbler Pots

These are underground downspouts that prevent rain from your gutters from reaching your foundation. Water free-falls into a debris filter and flows underground, away from your home. As the bubbler pot fills, the lid rises to let water evenly flow over onto your lawn. Drainage slots in the bubbler pot let standing water filter down into the ground. The solid drain cover will then drop down and seal out grass clippings and dirt.

Downspouts

Rain gutters are only one part of the system that protects your property from rain and snow. The downspouts are also a vital part of the system. These are usually vertical and extend to the ground level, carrying rainwater from your gutter system to the ground and directing it away from your foundation to protect it from water damage. Improper installation of gutters or downspouts can cost you thousands of dollars in repairs.

If your downspouts aren’t efficiently directing water away from your home, it won’t matter that your gutter system is collecting all the rainwater from your roof. Our downspout installation experts will carefully calculate the surface area of your roof and the amount of water that could be captured by the guttering system to size your downspouts properly.

For the security and stability of your gutter system, we recommend using larger downspouts so your gutters won’t overflow. This limits the number of seams you’ll have in your gutters, which means fewer leaks and a gutter system that’s easier to maintain.

Generally speaking, there should be one downspout for every 30 or 40 feet of gutter, and they should be located at the downward part of the gutter slope that’s not near any important features, such as driveways, electrical junction boxes, water meters or other features that could be damaged by rainwater.

Drain Systems

Our team of professionals at Pro Roofers LLC offers several drainage system solutions to complement our standard gutter systems, including downspout extensions, splash blocks, and underground trenching services.

The effects of water are far too easy to overlook. Unless directed otherwise, water will flow wherever it wants to, causing damage to your home even after it has been safely controlled by your gutters and downspouts. Homes can often be found with downspouts discharging directly next to the foundation due to improper installation. This water “pooling” effect next to the foundation can be a real problem, especially if the grade around the home is poor. This can lead to water damage over time.

Underground water creates hydrostatic pressure when it encounters a barrier such as a basement or foundation wall. During heavy rain, the water table rises toward the basement, which creates even more hydrostatic pressure, exerting up to 500 pounds per square inch against the home’s foundation!

Gutter Water

The Effects Of A Bad Gutter

Over some time, this pressure can cause basement walls to bow or crack, resulting in water in the basement, mold, and a variety of other problems. An entire industry dedicated to basement waterproofing has been created as a result, which can cost $10,000 or more to have installed.

In most cases, this expense can be avoided by investing in proper outside water management options, including a functional and adequate capacity gutter, downspout system, and an underground drainage system. The most effective strategy is to direct the water as far away from the foundation as possible by adding downspout extensions or “kickers” to help transport the water away.

There are a couple of solutions to help solve the problem. Some homeowners opt for a plastic or concrete splash block at the termination of the downspout. This can give the job a more finished look and is an effective way to disperse the water and direct it away from the home.

Installing an underground drainage system is the best long-term approach for directing rainwater away from your foundation. When a property has a substantial slope away from the home, the end of the underground tile may simply be terminated and capped. However, in situations without a proper slope, a “pop-up” drain may be needed to allow the water to exit in the middle of the lawn.

Several considerations must be taken into account, including power lines or sprinkler systems and paver walkways, which will determine how the trench will be dug. Every situation is unique, but the general goal is to direct the water as far away as possible safely.

We strongly recommend establishing these drain lines early in the home building process, as they will be worth the investment in the long run, and it’s much more complicated to install them later. Contact us today to get a professional opinion on your home’s drainage system.
