Try to get Stipes back when your gutters are leaking a week after installation!

If you have spouting installed pay the extra for( 5 inch ? )wide gutter torrential rain will flood the standard size spouting.

I also spoke with these folks, very informative, and no pressure sales. They Only do 6”gutters and I just wanted the front of my garage and back of my lanai in our gardenia model home. Haven’t decided yet as the home has never had gutters in the 12+ years of the house.

I had no problem getting them out here to recaulk a seam and extend a downspout after we installed a planter.

Brian Terry Vinyl. Also ask them about screening in your entry area. It will keep the lovebugs and other critters out.

Thanks for the suggestion. I will look into that too.

When the rain is heavy we notice it runs down and through the lanai screen.
We are thinking of installing some gutters around the side and back of the house.

Has anyone else recently done the same? If so what contractor did you use? Were you happy with their work? Anything we should be aware of, or contractors we should avoid? Etc. Finally, how much would this typically cost?

Appreciate everyone’s input and guidance.

Thanks,
John Russo

Stipes is awesome. Quick an efficient doing a great job, reasonable

The Roof Guys
 
We used THE ROOF GUYS that are affiliated with THE SOLAR GUYS here in TV. 866-259-2364≥. We called them on a Wednesday, came out that afternoon and gave an estimate and gutters were installed on Friday. I too would recommend 6 inch gutters. If I recall correctly, they have a selection of colors. We still went with white but may be an option to consider.

Make sure whomever you have install - they DO NOT use spikes and ferrules as that is old technology and will pull out. Also - seamless gutters.

Never understood why builders don’t put gutters on homes!

Be sure to get the water away from the foundation at each downspout.
Corrugated underground pipe is best. A splash pad is not sufficient. Water must be routed many feet away from the foundation.
Also be sure the ground slopes away from the house.
Nothing wrecks home foundations faster than lots of water washing away the ground in just one concentrated spot from a downspout every time it rains.

The Gutter Guys in Ocala. Their salesman is a Villager. Fair pricing, quick installation and guaranteed for life not to leak.

They do a partial gutter job in the front porch area.
