Gutter replacement in Jurupa Valley

Before you let anybody on the roof
The things worth pinning down on a gutters job. A contractor who has not raised them has not looked properly.
- Number and position of downspouts
- Condition of the fascia behind the old gutter
- Where the water is discharged, and how far from the foundation
- Seamless or sectional, and what gauge of aluminium
- Gutter size against the roof area draining into it
Check the fascia before the gutter goes back up. Hanging new metal off soft wood buys you a year.
Guards reduce cleaning; they do not eliminate it. Treat any product sold as maintenance-free with suspicion.
Seamless aluminium formed on site is the default. Sectional gutter from a box store is cheaper and leaks at every joint within a few years.
Locally
Then, less dramatically: dry offshore wind that arrives all at once in autumn. Dry offshore wind lifts material that damp coastal air had been holding down. Most wind losses here happen on a handful of nights a year.
About gutters here
How much deposit is normal?
A third at most, and never the full amount. Pay the balance when the job is finished and you have walked it. Some states cap the deposit by law.
Are the contractors licensed and insured?
We require a licence number and current insurance from every contractor in the network. Verify it yourself anyway. Your state licensing board has a free lookup, and it takes two minutes.
Are gutters included in a re-roof?
Normally a separate line. It is the one add-on that genuinely costs less when done at the same time.
Can I stay in the house while it is done?
Yes, though it is loud, and things will fall off shelves in the garage. Move cars out of the driveway and take anything fragile off the walls of the top floor.
