Question 1

Do I Need Gutters?

Accepted Answer

If your structure lacks adequate drainage away from the foundation or if you observe drip-lines or splashback onto unprotected areas, you need a guttering system. Gutters prevent damage caused by rainwater runoff, such as rotting fascia, trim work, decking, doors, windows, and siding.

Question 2

How Much Is an Estimate, and Am I Obligated for Services or Payment?

Accepted Answer

Estimates are free, and you are under no obligation to have The Guttermen install your gutter system. The company offers high-quality professional service with industry-leading guarantees and warranties at reasonable prices.

Question 3

Do I Need to Be Present While the Estimate or Work Is Being Done?

Accepted Answer

No, you don’t need to be present during estimates or installations. The Guttermen is fully licensed and bonded, ensuring the safety of your property. Special arrangements can be made for access if you have unusual circumstances.

Question 4

What Is a Mold Break, and Why Is It Removed?

Accepted Answer

A mold break is a device under the roof that holds shingles away from the eave. To properly install gutters, this piece is removed to prevent the system from buckling and ensure the water flows correctly.

Question 5

What is 'Flashing', and Do I Need It?

Accepted Answer

After removing the mold break, flashing is installed to cover the gap between the fascia and roof decking, preventing the entry of air, debris, or animals. The estimator may recommend flashing based on your specific requirements.

Question 6

Do My Gutters Need Covers, and What Types Are Available?
