Gutter repair services step-by-step

The most common gutter problems needing repairs to get your gutters functioning as they should be are: sagging or pulling away of a gutter, out-of-pitch gutters, leaky gutter seams, and leaky or loose downspouts. While many gutter problems can be resolved with a thorough cleaning, there are times when a repair is needed. We offer a wide range of gutter repairs, with the expertise to identify and fix any issue.

Sealing gutter joints
Sealing gutter joints

One of the frequent types of repairs involves the erosion of gutter sealant at the joints. This issue is usually identified by water dripping or flowing at those specific locations. Our solution for this repair is to meticulously prepare the affected surface by using a combination of chemical cleaning and thorough sanding, followed by the application of a top-quality, specially formulated gutter sealant to ensure a durable, robust seal.

Reinforcement of loose gutters
Reinforcement of loose gutters

As time passes, gutters that are burdened with weight can gradually detach from your home, leading to water runoff from your roof to overflow behind the back edge of your gutter. To address this issue, we reinforce the gutter with sturdy gutter hangers to make it more stable against your house. Additionally, we ensure that the entire length of the back edge is securely sealed to prevent any water from seeping behind the gutter.

Downspout Repairs
Downspout Repairs

Downspouts are an essential part of any gutter system, as they direct rainwater away from your home’s roof and foundation. However, over time, downspouts can become damaged. There are several types of downspout repairs and repair solutions available, including patching and sealing, and partial as well as full replacement. If the damage is severe, replacement may be necessary, which involves removing the old downspout and installing a new one. Regular maintenance and inspection can help prevent the need for downspout repairs and prolong the life of the gutter system.

Pitch gutters

Inadequate pitch resulting from age or improper installation may cause gutters to overflow in the opposite direction of the downspout, leading to ineffective water flow and inadequate drainage away from your residence. Our service entails dismounting your gutter and repositioning it with a proper downward slope to optimize water flow and ensure efficient drainage.

FAQ

your questions

01
How do I know if my gutter needs repairs?
Down arrow strokeDown arrow color

Some signs that your gutter may need repairs include water pooling around the foundation of your home, sagging or drooping gutters, visible cracks or holes in the gutters, and gutters that are pulling away from the roofline. If you notice any of these issues, it's best to call a professional to assess and repair your gutter system.

02
Can I repair my gutters myself?
Down arrow strokeDown arrow color

While minor repairs such as reattaching loose hangers or patching small holes can be done by homeowners, it's generally not recommended for homeowners to attempt more extensive repairs themselves. Repairing or replacing sections of gutter or fixing damage to the roofline requires specialized knowledge and tools that most homeowners do not possess. Attempting these repairs on your own can also be dangerous, as working on a ladder or on the roof without proper safety precautions can result in falls and injuries. It's best to hire a professional gutter repair service to ensure the job is done safely and correctly.

03
How long does gutter repair take?
Down arrow strokeDown arrow color

The time taken for gutter repair depends on the extent of the damage and the complexity of the repair work required. Minor repairs can usually be completed in a few hours, while more significant repairs may take a day or two.

WHY CHOOSE NED STEVENS?

Our technicians provide dependable gutter installation and gutter replacement services for homeowners in areas such as Fairfield, Waterbury, Dundalk, Richmond, Newark, and Woodstock. The staff at Ned Stevens uses the thickest gauge aluminum gutters in the industry, 0.032 gauge versus the thinner 0.027 gauge that other companies use. Thicker gauge gutters provide better performance and stability throughout the seasons. Southern states (NC, SC, and GA) still receive 0.027 gauge aluminum due to gutter supply constraints in those areas.

Additionally, the professionals at Ned Stevens custom make the gutters on site to fit your home, and only use hidden hangers to install gutters. Hidden hangers are the most effective and secure way to install gutters. Ned Stevens only uses stainless steel screws, which don’t rust.

Our technicians also offer gutters in a variety of colors including white, bronze, gray, black, clay, cream, and brown. All materials are guaranteed for 20 years and workmanship is guaranteed for one full year.

FAQ

Find answers to
your questions

01
Do you recommend screening or gutter guards?
Down arrow strokeDown arrow color

We do not recommend screening or gutter guards. Ned Stevens has searched for and experimented with all types of products that claim to prevent gutter clogs for nearly 60 years. In short, we’ve found that there’s no such thing as a “no clog” gutter.

We do sell and install gutter screens, but we stopped selling a top-of-the-line solid cover gutter guard. These systems allow debris in the gutters, they allow the water to pour off the top of gutters in heavy rain (which could lead to water in your basement), and they allow clogs. The screens we sell will keep out big debris, but let a significant amount of small debris into the gutters. This debris will cause clogs over time, and can even grow plants in the gutters. As such, even with screens, gutters need to be cleaned regularly.

The solution for gutter clogs is simple: clean the gutters on a regular schedule. You can do this by signing up for one of our ongoing service plans, and you won’t worry about your gutters again.

02
How long do gutters last?
Down arrow strokeDown arrow color

The gutters that Ned Stevens installs are guaranteed for 20 years, and include one year of workmanship warranty. This is due to our use of the thickest gauge aluminum gutters (0.032), stainless steel screws, and made-to-measure gutters & downspouts.

03
What is the difference between hiring a professional gutter installation service and doing it myself?
Down arrow strokeDown arrow color

Since gutter cleaning is often considered a DIY task, some believe installation to be the same. Gutter replacement or installation is a very complex process that requires advanced skill, access to equipment, and adherence to safety practices. Those that are new to DIY projects should strongly consider hiring a professional.

Gutter installation professionals like Ned Stevens will know which materials will suit your home’s needs, how to measure and custom-fit the gutters to your roof, and how to safely secure the gutters so that they last for decades. Each step of this process can take DIYers extended time and visits to the hardware store. Ned Stevens can get it done in a few hours!

04
How do you know when to install new gutters?
Down arrow strokeDown arrow color

If you find that you’re consistently needing repair for your gutters, it may be the right time to install new gutters. Gutters with 6 or more areas of cracks, holes, and/or rust spots may be better off replaced. If you’re noticing broken fasteners, nails/screws on the ground, and/or overall separation, installation may be the solution.

Well-built gutters typically last for 20 years; if you know that your gutters are older than this, it may be time for gutter replacement. Consult with a gutter specialist before making a decision.

05
What is an “off pitch gutter” and what causes it to lose its pitch?
Down arrow strokeDown arrow color

Gutters work on the principle of gravity. The gutter, when properly installed, sits on a small angle on the home. That angle causes the water to flow toward the downspout, eventually being carried away from your home’s foundation.

When a gutter goes “off pitch”, it has lost its angle, and therefore the water simply sits still in the gutter. That water has to go somewhere, and will eventually back up into the home or overflow and pour into the foundation. When backing up, the water also rots the wood behind the gutter (known as the “fascia board”), causing the gutter to eventually fall off the home. If the fascia rots, you will have to replace the gutter and the fascia.

Off pitch gutters can be caused by shifting foundations and the elements (including falling branches), but are often caused by clogs in the gutter. Once debris clogs the gutters, the water has nowhere to go, so it sits in the gutter. That gutter that was once around 20 pounds, now weighs over 300 pounds due to the weight of debris and water sitting in it. Eventually, it goes off pitch and has to be replaced.

The best way to prevent gutters from going off pitch is to clean them on a regular basis. Join our Service Plan, and protect your gutters and home today.

Gutter repair services step-by-step

The most common gutter problems needing repairs to get your gutters functioning as they should be are: sagging or pulling away of a gutter, out-of-pitch gutters, leaky gutter seams, and leaky or loose downspouts. While many gutter problems can be resolved with a thorough cleaning, there are times when a repair is needed. We offer a wide range of gutter repairs, with the expertise to identify and fix any issue.

Sealing gutter joints
Sealing gutter joints

One of the frequent types of repairs involves the erosion of gutter sealant at the joints. This issue is usually identified by water dripping or flowing at those specific locations. Our solution for this repair is to meticulously prepare the affected surface by using a combination of chemical cleaning and thorough sanding, followed by the application of a top-quality, specially formulated gutter sealant to ensure a durable, robust seal.

Reinforcement of loose gutters
Reinforcement of loose gutters

As time passes, gutters that are burdened with weight can gradually detach from your home, leading to water runoff from your roof to overflow behind the back edge of your gutter. To address this issue, we reinforce the gutter with sturdy gutter hangers to make it more stable against your house. Additionally, we ensure that the entire length of the back edge is securely sealed to prevent any water from seeping behind the gutter.

Downspout Repairs
Downspout Repairs

Downspouts are an essential part of any gutter system, as they direct rainwater away from your home’s roof and foundation. However, over time, downspouts can become damaged. There are several types of downspout repairs and repair solutions available, including patching and sealing, and partial as well as full replacement. If the damage is severe, replacement may be necessary, which involves removing the old downspout and installing a new one. Regular maintenance and inspection can help prevent the need for downspout repairs and prolong the life of the gutter system.

Pitch gutters

Inadequate pitch resulting from age or improper installation may cause gutters to overflow in the opposite direction of the downspout, leading to ineffective water flow and inadequate drainage away from your residence. Our service entails dismounting your gutter and repositioning it with a proper downward slope to optimize water flow and ensure efficient drainage.

“I have been using Ray and team over the last year for cleaning our gutters. Initially, I did not schedule a cleaning recommended by Ray, and paid the price for it with overflowing gutters the last time it rained. Very prompt responses, reasonable pricing, timely and efficient work, with great follow-up (they call me after the cleaning and let me know what they did)...”

FAQ

Find answers to
your questions

01
Can my gutters be cleaned without water?
Down arrow strokeDown arrow color

Yes! Under certain circumstances, including lack of available water and customer request, we will perform a “dry cleaning.” We will only perform a dry cleaning where we can ensure that the gutters and leaders are free from clogs. If we perform a “dry cleaning”, the service carries the same guarantee as a cleaning with water.

02
Do you recommend screening or gutter guards?
Down arrow strokeDown arrow color

We do not recommend screening or gutter guards. Ned Stevens has searched for and experimented with all types of products that claim to prevent gutter clogs for nearly 60 years. In short, we’ve found that there’s no such thing as a “no clog” gutter.

We do sell and install gutter screens, but we stopped selling a top-of-the-line solid cover gutter guard. These systems allow debris in the gutters, they allow the water to pour off the top of gutters in heavy rain (which could lead to water in your basement), and they allow clogs. The screens we sell will keep out big debris, but let a significant amount of small debris into the gutters. This debris will cause clogs over time, and can even grow plants in the gutters. As such, even with screens, gutters need to be cleaned regularly.

The solution for gutter clogs is simple: clean the gutters on a regular schedule. You can do this by signing up for one of our ongoing service plans, and you won’t worry about your gutters again.

03
How can I tell if my gutters need to be cleaned?
Down arrow strokeDown arrow color

You may notice that areas of your gutters overflow when it rains, or your downspouts aren’t draining any water. It may be as obvious as a visible buildup of debris in your gutters, which indicates that nothing is able to drain.

An easy rule of thumb is that if your gutters haven’t been cleaned in the last 4-6 months, chances are it’s time for another cleaning.

04
What is the difference between hiring a professional gutter cleaner and doing it myself?
Down arrow strokeDown arrow color

While it may seem like a more affordable option to clean your gutters on your own, the potential risks simply do not outweigh the savings. You risk serious injuries and might not own the proper equipment or experience. You could also damage your gutters, gutter pitch, or the roof and end up paying even more in costly repairs. Professional gutter cleaners have the experience and equipment to get the job done safely and efficiently, so you can rest assured that your gutters will be clean and functioning correctly. In the end, hiring a professional gutter cleaner is the best option for your home.

05
Do I need to be home when my gutters are cleaned?
Down arrow strokeDown arrow color

No — we will make your life easy! After you schedule your job, we will appear automatically without further notice for each service scheduled, do a great job, and leave a receipt for you in your door. It’s that easy!

06
Does Ned’s Gutter Cleaning Service Come with a Guarantee?
Down arrow strokeDown arrow color

Yes, we guarantee every gutter cleaning we perform. Because of the amount of debris that falls every single day, and the small amount of debris required to clog gutters, gutters can clog at any time. However, we guarantee that your entire system will be cleaned and flow freely through the next rainstorm following your service.

07
How often should I clean my gutters?
Down arrow strokeDown arrow color

We recommend that you clean your gutters about 6 times per year. Your local weather and proximity to trees & debris will dictate your specific needs, but we typically suggest this recommended schedule:

- In March, to re-nail all gutters and clear out the branches, dirt and other winter debris – so that they are ready for the “April Showers”

- In June, to clean out all the oak tassels, ragweed, seed pods, “helicopters”, and other debris that land all over our properties

- In August, to remove wind-blown debris caused by Summer thunderstorms

- And then three times in the Fall: October, November, and December, to remove all the clogs caused by leaves that come down throughout the Fall season, before the winter freeze.

Our Service Plans provide the simplest solution for worry-free gutter maintenance, all year long, and come with free benefits!

08
Why should I clean my gutters?
Down arrow strokeDown arrow color

Properly pitched gutters and leaders gather that water and channel it away from the home. Doing so prevents water penetration into the home and its foundation. For this reason, Consumer Reports magazine claims that “runaway rainwater” is the “#1 Home Repair That You Should Not Ignore.”

Because of how important a properly flowing gutter system is to your home, you must keep them clean, all year round. If you don’t, rainwater can seep into your home’s roof, siding, and even its foundation. Water damage to these parts of your home can result in costly repairs. Simply cleaning your gutters prevents these expensive projects and keeps water flowing away from your home.
