Gutter Services
in Cortland, NY
New York 13045

When scheduling allows, yes—especially for active leaks, sagging sections, storm damage, and overflowing downspouts. We stabilize first (temporary sealing/re-hanging) and then complete permanent fixes in Cortland.

Most homes use 5" or 6" K-style seamless aluminum. We also install half-round (aluminum, copper, steel) and 7" K-style for heavy rainfall or large roofs. Commercial options include box gutters and oversized downspouts.

Aluminum (seamless, color-matched) is the value leader. Copper offers premium durability and curb appeal with a natural patina. Galvanized/painted steel adds strength in hail/wind areas. We’ll recommend the right metal for Cortland conditions and HOA guidelines.

Standard 2×3" works for small roof planes; 3×4" handles more water and debris and is our default for tree-heavy lots in 13045. Oversized or round downspouts are available for steep or complex roofs.

We set a consistent pitch (typically 1/16"–1/8" per foot) toward properly placed outlets and downspouts, then water-test. This stops standing water that can cause seam failure or ice issues in New York.

We use hidden hangers with long, coated or stainless screws into solid fascia—no spikes/ferrules on new installs. Hanger spacing is tightened for snow/wind loads typical in Cortland.

Yes. Rotten fascia or loose soffit will undermine a new system. We replace wood, add backing where needed, and can install aluminum or PVC fascia wraps to seal and protect in 13045.

If you clean more than twice a year, guards pay off. We install micro-mesh, solid cover/helmet, perforated, and hybrid systems; pine-needle-heavy yards usually get micro-mesh. We’ll match the guard to your debris type and roof.

No system is 100% maintenance-free. Guards reduce clogs and ladder trips, but we still recommend an annual rinse/inspection in Cortland to maintain warranties and performance.

Absolutely. We add extensions, elbows, splash blocks, or bury 4" PVC/HDPE to daylight or a pop-up emitter. We follow Cortland/New York stormwater rules (never to sanitary sewer).

Yes—with high-grade butyl or polymer sealant, then we smooth and water-test. We can also install box/strip miters for cleaner lines and fewer leak points.

Typically 2× per year (spring/fall)—more with heavy oak/pine. We offer one-time cleanings and maintenance plans in 13045 that include downspout flushing and a checklist report.

Common issues: undersized downspouts, flat sections without pitch, debris at outlets, or too few outlets for roof area. We redesign with larger outlets, additional drops, and improved slope for New York rainfall intensity.

Yes—where roof design calls for it. We integrate drip edge/gutter apron so water goes into the gutter, not behind it, and we comply with New York roof edge best practices.

Yes. We use the correct brackets/straps and sealants for standing seam, tile, or modified bitumen. For flat roofs we add scuppers, conductor heads (leader heads), and oversized downspouts.

Often yes. We add new fastening into solid substrate, replace damaged fascia, adjust pitch, and swap worn hangers. If the coil is stretched/dented, replacement may be smarter.

Yes—multiple factory colors plus custom wraps for fascia/downs. Copper and steel options are also available to meet HOA design review.

Sure—diverters, first-flush filters, and decorative rain chains. We maintain overflow paths that protect foundations and landscaping per Cortland ordinances.

On-site roll-forming to your measurements, proper pitch, outlets, oversized downspouts, sealed miters/caps, hangers every 24–30", drip edge/apron integration as needed, and complete haul-away/cleanup—with a written warranty in New York.

We do both. For scattered damage, sectional replacement can be cost-effective. For widespread dents/leaks or mismatched colors, a full seamless replacement gives the best result and warranty.

Yes—heat cable installation at eaves/valleys, air-sealing/insulation referrals, and proper gutter/downspout sizing. We also check attic ventilation to reduce ice-dam risk in New York winters.

We follow manufacturer guidelines and avoid prying shingles beyond limits. When needed, we coordinate with your roofer to preserve warranties and meet Cortland inspection requirements.

Linear footage, metal type, size/profile, number of miters/outlets, downspout runs, height/access, and guard selection. You’ll receive an itemized, written quote—no surprises.

Yes—COIs provided, lift access arranged, quiet-hour compliance, and multi-unit scheduling with photo documentation for boards and property managers.

Labor warranty plus manufacturer finish warranties on coil/guards. We include maintenance guidance so coverage stays valid in Cortland.

Usually—clean, dry, reseal, and re-rivet if needed. We also replace faulty strip/box miters and add outlets where ponding occurs.

Yes. We carefully detach, label, store, and reinstall or replace as needed—coordinating timelines with your contractor in 13045.

We protect landscaping, use stabilizers on ladders, magnet-sweep for screws/rivets, and bag all debris. Final walkthrough includes a water test and photo log for your records.
