From choosing the right materials to ensuring precise installation, every gutter project requires expertise and planning. At Storm Guard, we guide you through each step sharing our knowledge so you can make confident decisions backed by years of proven experience.
Gutter installation can be done yourself or by a professional. But before deciding to install gutters on your own, it’s important to take into consideration whether you are really prepared to complete the job correctly.
When you hire a professional, you are hiring not only a crew but a consultant. A professional can help you decide which style of gutters will be the most effective for your home and the area where you live. While your gutter installation cost will be higher when you hire a professional, that’s a service that can protect both your home and your property values. Learn more about gutter installation.
Gutter installation can be tricky and mistakes can be costly. Before deciding to install your own gutters, consider the following: are you familiar with the slope required for your roof as well as the best style of gutter system that will work best with your property? Do you have all the tools you’ll need, including time to complete the job and someone to assist you? And finally, are you prepared to potentially pay to fix any mistakes? If you hesitate to answer any of these questions in the affirmative, you may want to hire a professional to do it for you.
Did you know that the style of gutter you have on your home is extremely important? And it’s not just a matter of style preference. The weather your property withstands and the style of roof it has should both dictate what kind of gutters you install. There are multiple types of gutter styles and materials to choose from
Gutter installation generally takes up to 4 hours for an average-sized home, but it can vary depending on factors such as the size and complexity of the property, the gutter type, and weather conditions. Larger houses or those with intricate rooflines might take up to a day.
Seamless gutters lack joints and seams, with only a few small seams at the corners or downspout connections—fewer than in sectional gutters. Are they worth it? Yes. They reduce leaks, enhance performance and durability, and pair well with gutter add-ons, though they come at a higher cost.
Gutter guards are add-ons, so it generally depends on personal choice. Your gutters can function without them, but adding them enhances protection. Gutter guards help prevent clogs and overflows by keeping debris clear, keeping your gutter system clean, and reducing maintenance.
You can install gutters yourself if you're comfortable with DIY projects. However, hiring a professional residential gutter contractor ensures proper installation, saving time and effort and reducing the risk of costly mistakes or injury.

Yes. Our gutter company offers a workmanship warranty to ensure the quality of the installation and a lifetime manufacturer's warranty on the materials. Trust that both the installation and the products are guaranteed for long-term reliability.
Maintenance and repair significantly extend the lifespan of your gutters. Skipping these tasks can lead to a range of complex and costly problems. Not only can this damage your gutters, but it also risks water damage to your property's foundation, roof, and landscaping.
