Gutter Installation & Replacement in Tallahassee, FL

If your gutters are sagging, leaking, or pulling away from your home, it’s a clear sign you need new gutters. In Tallahassee, frequent afternoon thunderstorms and heavy rainfall can cause extensive damage to aging gutters, making timely replacement essential to help protect your home from water damage.

Aluminum works best for gutter installations in Tallahassee. It’s lightweight, rust-resistant, and durable enough to help handle our frequent thunderstorms and humid subtropical climate. Since Tallahassee gets around 65 inches of rain annually, rust resistance is key for long-term protection. Copper is another solid choice if you’re looking for a premium look that lasts.

Professional gutter installations in Tallahassee typically take 1-2 days to complete. The timeline depends on factors like your home’s size, roof pitch complexity, and the scope of work required. Larger homes or more intricate rooflines may require additional time to ensure proper installation.

LeafFilter uses Sherwin Williams’ Plastilure system to match your existing gutters or select a new color that complements your home’s exterior. This ensures your gutter system blends naturally with your Tallahassee home’s style.

The size of gutters depends on your home’s roof area and local weather. In Tallahassee, 5-inch gutters are standard for most homes. However, 6-inch gutters are often suggested to better handle Florida’s heavy rainfall and afternoon thunderstorms. Larger gutters help prevent overflow and water damage during summer’s peak rainfall season.

Yes, new gutters require regular maintenance like cleaning and inspections to function properly. Tallahassee’s humid subtropical climate, with over 60 inches of annual rainfall, puts extra demand on gutter systems. Local vegetation, including live oaks and Spanish moss, can contribute to debris buildup. Pairing gutters with LeafFilter’s gutter guard system helps reduce maintenance needs by helping prevent common debris from entering gutters.

Yes, gutters can be installed on virtually any roof type, including steep pitches and complex designs.

Professionals familiar with the area’s heavy summer thunderstorms understand how to position gutter systems to handle intense rainfall effectively. Complex roofs with multiple valleys, dormers, or varying elevations need careful planning to ensure proper water flow and drainage throughout your property.
