Gutters and downspouts.
 
Has anyone used M&M for gutters and downspouts?

Comments?

Yes, we were very pleased w/their work!:)

I have used them. They did an excellent job and matched in the existing gutters that came with my new build. Very good prices and reliable, I called them to have gutters on the garage in the front and called them back 2 months later to go across the back of the house. Would definitely call them for other services they offer if I needed work done again.

Yes, very pleased

Quite a few people in our neighborhood used them and all are very pleased.

THey are all pretty much the same $2.75 a foot, + $30 per downspout.

I went with http://www.rainhandler.com/ U can get them thru online Home Depot, pickup at store $225 package will do anysize house no ugly downspouts.

A good clean look.

Any handyman can pop them up a few screws.

Cancel the rainhandlers at that price I just booked Stipes.

They confirmed 5" at $1, the others did want #2.75

Not M&M but had a good experience with Stipes Seamless Gutters. Came back to make some minor adjustments with no problem. Would use again.

From one of your L & 0 diners :a040:

I'll report back on the 30th.

M and M came and quoted us substantially lower than the company doing our neighbors homes this week.

Gracie, lower than $1 a foot by Stips?

The other (unnamed) company had charged our two neighbors about a thousand dollars this week and our home, the Seabrook, is a little larger, and M and M quoted us less.

The price quoted will match the existing gutters and downspouts already on the front of the home that came with it

For a long time we really didn't think we needed them. I certainly don't buy the tale that some contractors give you that not doing them gives you a fertile field for termite nests. But since the rain was sheeting off the roof, it was "trenching" in some areas and washing my PINE STRAW away and the rains are a coming.

I know that moisture does attract termites, but in this sand we rest on, it wicks away pretty quickly and frankly I kinda looked on that pitch as a scare tactic.

But if it is gonna wash my precious pine straw, it is time to have gutters and downspouts.

Sweetie and I are having a disagreement about rock vs. pine straw.

Usually he is right, but not this time. ;)

They don't know me.

Thank heavens, or it might have been $3.75.;)

So you think that was a pretty good deal?

Yay!

Sounds like a good deal
