Gutter installation and repair in Jersey Village, TX
Gutter installation and repair in Jersey Village usually has an age problem behind it. Much of the town is mid-century housing built from the 1950s through the 1970s, still carrying gutter sizing from that era, in an area that has taken serious flooding along White Oak Bayou.
Why Jersey Village gutters give out
Mid-century homes were fitted with smaller gutter profiles than today's storms justify.
When a gutter cannot move the water, it spills back against the roof edge. On housing this age the decking and flashing behind it are already decades old, so the overflow finds something to rot.
Flooding along the bayou has also made people rightly sensitive to where water ends up. Getting it off the roof and away from the slab is the part we control.
Signs yours are undersized
- Water sheeting over the front edge in an ordinary downpour
- Staining or peeling paint on the fascia behind the gutter
- Gutters pulling loose from the roof edge
- Erosion or splash-back along the foundation
- Standing water still in the run a day after rain
What we install
Seamless aluminium gutters, formed on site, so the only joins are at the corners and outlets.
We size the gutter and the downspouts to the roof area actually feeding them, rather than matching whatever was there before.
Where trees overhang the run we will talk through guards honestly: they help on some roofs and are a waste of money on others, and it depends on what is dropping into them.
The fascia behind the gutter
Gutters hang on the fascia board. On a 1960s house that board has often been wet for years before anyone looks.
We check it while the gutter is down, and can handle soffit and fascia repair or roof edge repair in the same visit.
If a storm caused it
Wind and hail damage to gutters and roof edge can belong on a claim. We document it and handle the claim by the book, deductible included.
