Yet another vote for Stipes! We used them twice and were always satisfied for all the above reasons!

I used Stipes and could not be happier. Prior to the gutters being installed, a competitor, whose bid was almost 3x Stipes, told me the work could not have been done for the Stipes' bid. I did not seek a quote from Hills at the time...

Personally I don't want gutters all around my house. The front door area is all I want gutters on. I want the water to soak in the ground and water my bushes and yard and go back to the aquifer and not run off into a pond somewhere.

I used Stipes and got the 6 inch gutter which allows for less downspouts. Very happy with the end result.

Hill’s Gutters. Just had them installed. Great crew and price. Very accommodating

I wish it were that simple. The soil erosion on one side of our home is leaving the shrubs roots exposed. I asked a landscaper to fill in the void with soil and was told I would be wasting money because the soil will erode away again. He suggested gutters so I'm going with that option.

I would like to thank all those who have answered in this thread. Your experience gives me confidence with which ever company we decide to hire.

M&M
 
We just moved in and used M&M to install gutters. On time, courteous, fast and didn’t leave any mess behind. They look great.

I NEED gutters across the driveway because a previous owner installed half-height pavers on top of the concrete. The spaces in-between get filled with water and it comes right in under the garage door because the pavers come in under the door. If it would just run on down the driveway, I'd agree with you.

Yup, makes a lot more sense to wash out the edge of your foundation which is only a foot deep.

Run away from Hills. They used cheap chinese fasteners on my house, they all rusted, and Hill refused to do anything about it. I bouight a box of stainless screws and replaced them all.

I got an estimate from The Gutter Guys on 3 April 2020 and about 10 minutes ago from Hill's Seamless Gutters. The exact same amount, I mean down to the $$$ (which ended in a 7). The Gutter Guys - we had a coupon out of one of the flyers, so that took 10% off. The Hill's gentleman said he already builds in The Villages discount, that's it's a lot higher for the same job in Ocala. So after discount by Gutter Guys, it was the same price as Hill's upfront price.

Fasteners Rusting?

Anyone else have this problem with Hills or anyone else that you've noticed? Thanks.
