Contact The Guttermen

Repair for isolated issues — one seam, loose hangers, a sagging section. Replace when damage is widespread, the material is corroded, or the gutters are undersized. We'll tell you which on-site.

Usually undersized gutters, wrong pitch, or too few downspouts. SC storms dump 2–4 inches per hour — standard 4-inch gutters often can't keep up.

Twice a year for most homes. Pine-covered properties need 3–4 times annually — pine needles shed year-round and slip past most guards.

Pooling water at the foundation, cracks in basement walls, sticking doors, and soil erosion along the foundation line. Fix the gutters first — repairs won't hold if the water source isn't corrected.

Yes — overflow soaks the fascia and soffit, and SC's humidity keeps it wet. Mold follows fast, often before you see any sign inside.

Failed fasteners. Older spike systems loosen over time, especially when the fascia has softened from moisture. We remove them, replace any rotted wood, and reinstall with hidden hangers that won't back out.

5-inch is standard. 4-inch can't handle SC's rainfall rates. 6-inch is worth it for steep roofs, large sections, or heavy tree coverage — we spec the right size at your quote.

Quality micro-mesh guards work — they cut cleanouts from 2–3 times a year to once every few years. Cheap plastic screens don't. Nothing is fully maintenance-free in SC, but a good system pays for itself on treed properties.

SC's heat kills corner sealant in 3–5 years instead of 7–10. Signs: staining or peeling paint below the corner. Quick fix when caught early — ignored, it rots the fascia fast.

15–25 years for seamless aluminum. Sectional gutters fail sooner. Regular cleanouts and prompt repairs are the best way to get full lifespan out of your system.

Yes — water should discharge at least 4–6 feet from the foundation. Simple extensions fix most cases. We check every downspout on every visit.
