Honest, Transparent Built-In/Hidden Gutter Repairs

Built-In/Hidden gutters are exactly what the sound like. These gutters are hidden on the inside of your home’s structure rather than visible on the exterior like traditional gutters. With built-in gutters, proper maintenance is as crucial as your regular dental visit. Much like your teeth, delaying built-in gutter repairs can have costly consequences when the issue becomes worse. Unattended small cavities can lead to a costly root canal or even a set of new dentures. Some of the most common problems with built-in/hidden gutter systems are:
  • Improperly Installed Cap Flashing
  • Undersized/Leaking Drains
  • Deteriorating/Leaking Seams
  • Improper Preparation and Workmanship

Built-In/Hidden Gutter Components

We offer a wide range of different gutter styles to suit every homeowner and protect your home from the rain.

Cap Flashing

Cap flashing protects to top fascia board from water damage and is an important aesthetic feature of your home. High quality 26-gauge custom fabricated metal cap flashing is installed around the entire perimeter of the gutter, overtop of the fascia. Cap flashing is secured with hidden fasteners and horizontal seams are caulked to ensure a proper seal.
Common Issues:
  • Top nailed flashing (allows water to penetrate under the flashing that causes premature rotting)
  • Visibily rusted areas and missing caulking
  • Missing flashing (leaves open areas for water ingress)

Drain(s)

Drains divert water coming down from the roof into the downspout below. The downspout carries all the water down in to the drain pipe below ground and away from your foundation. 3-inch copper drains allow more water to exit and are less likely to get clogged, putting less stress on your gutter system. These are installed to manufacturer specifications without open seams.
Common Issues:
  • Poor drainage (leaf strainers restrict water flow and cause blockages)
  • Undersized drains (small drains do not provide sufficient drainage which results in gutters clogging and backing up with debris)
  • Improper preparation and workmanship (nailed down drains that are exposed, sealed with caulking and not protected with membrane)

Seams

Seams are where two pieces of membrane in your gutter system meet. These are sealed using high-quality bonding materials to manufacturer specifications. All seams should have seam tape or a target patch overtop which run up and under the roof and cap flashing.
Common Issues:
  • Deteriorating seams (leaking or cracked seams)
  • Improper installation and workmanship (seams that are only nailed down and caulked)
  • Age of material and lack of maintenance

Cleanout Boxes

Cleanout boxes are attached to your downspouts at accessible locations to prevent debris from flowing into your underground drainage system. This allows you to ensure your drains are working properly without needing to climb onto your roof.
Common Issues:
  • No installed (cleanout boxes are not installed to connected downspouts)
  • Drainage issues (not having clean out boxes in place allows debris to enter the drainage system and may clog drains)
  • Poor quality, noisy, and non-user friendly cleanout boxes
