Gutter Installation & Maintenance
Properly functioning gutters are essential for protecting your home from water damage. We offer complete gutter services including seamless gutter installation, gutter guards, cleaning, and repairs.
Gutter Installs
Seams to Leak
Year Lifespan
In the rainy climate of Seattle, a properly functioning gutter system is not just an accessory—it's a critical defense against water damage to your home's foundation, siding, and landscaping. Clogged or failing gutters can lead to costly problems, making professional gutter installation and maintenance an essential investment. The Seattle Roofing Company provides seamless gutter solutions tailored to your home.
Seamless Gutter Installation
We specialize in custom seamless aluminum gutters, fabricated on-site to the exact dimensions of your home. Unlike sectional gutters that have multiple joints and are prone to leaks, seamless gutters offer superior durability, a cleaner aesthetic, and significantly reduce the risk of leaks and clogs. We ensure proper pitch and secure fastening.
Gutter Guards and Leaf Protection
Tired of constantly cleaning out leaves, pine needles, and debris? We offer and install high-quality gutter guards, including micro-mesh systems, that effectively keep debris out while allowing water to flow freely. This significantly reduces maintenance needs and prevents costly clogs that can lead to water overflow and damage.
Downspout Installation and Drainage Solutions
Properly sized and placed downspouts are crucial for directing water away from your home's foundation. We ensure your downspouts are optimized for water flow and can integrate them with existing underground drainage systems or recommend solutions to prevent erosion and water pooling around your home.
Fascia Board Repair and Replacement
The fascia board, which runs along the roofline behind the gutters, is often susceptible to rot and water damage if gutters fail. During gutter replacement, we inspect the fascia and replace any compromised sections to ensure a solid and healthy structure for your new gutter system.
Protect your biggest investment from the ground up with a high-performance gutter system. Our expert team ensures your home is well-equipped to handle the Pacific Northwest's rainfall, providing lasting protection and minimal maintenance.

Frequently Asked Questions
How often should gutters be cleaned?
In Seattle, we recommend cleaning at least twice a year (spring and fall). If you have many trees, 3-4 times may be necessary.
Do gutter guards really work?
Yes! High-quality micro-mesh guards keep out pine needles and roof grit while letting water flow freely. They drastically reduce maintenance.
What are seamless gutters?
Seamless gutters are formed on-site from a continuous coil of aluminum. They have no joints to leak, unlike sectional gutters bought at hardware stores.
What size gutters do I need?
Most homes use 5-inch K-style gutters. However, for large steep roofs in rainy Seattle, we often recommend 6-inch gutters to handle the volume.
Do you repair loose gutters?
Yes, we can re-secure loose gutters using heavy-duty hidden hangers screwed into the fascia (replacing old spikes that pull out).
Can you replace just the downspouts?
Yes, we can replace damaged downspouts or add new ones to improve drainage.
What colors are available?
We offer dozens of colors to match your trim, siding, or roof. The paint is baked-on enamel that lasts for decades.
Do gutters protect my basement?
Yes! The #1 cause of wet basements is roof water dumping next to the foundation. Extensions and proper gutters solve this.
How long does installation take?
Most gutter installations are completed in a single day.
Do you repair fascia boards?
Yes, if we find rot behind the gutters, we will replace the fascia board before installing the new gutters.
What material are your gutters?
We primarily install aluminum (rust-proof and durable). We also offer copper and steel for specialty projects.
Do you offer a warranty?
Yes, our seamless gutters come with a 20-year material warranty and a workmanship guarantee.
Can you tie downspouts into drains?
Yes, we can connect your new downspouts to existing underground drain lines.
Why is water overflowing my gutters?
It could be a clog, improper pitch (slope), or the gutters are too small for the roof area. We can diagnose and fix it.
Are leaf guards worth the money?
If you hate climbing ladders or paying for cleaning 3 times a year, absolutely. They pay for themselves in a few years.
