Why Choose Us

A Local Wilmington Crew for Your Gutter Install

Our Wilmington crew has protected more than 6,400 homes and installed more than 220 miles of gutter in Leland, Hampstead, Southport, and nearby towns. On each visit, we check the fascia, measure the runs, and plan the downspouts.

The gutter guard is a low-profile, surgical-grade stainless steel micromesh screen installed at an angle. It is designed to fit most gutters, including K-style, fascia, U-style and custom box-style, so you may not need new gutters. Locally trained installation professionals put it in, and it carries a limited lifetime transferable warranty.

BUILT FOR EVERY SEASON

What Coastal Storms Mean for Wilmington Gutters

Wilmington gets more than 50 inches of rain a year, and the wettest months come in summer. Afternoon storms and tropical systems can drop a lot of water at once. Summer heat can dry out sealant, and strong winds blow leaves and twigs into open gutters.

Our install plans for this. We size the downspouts for your roof and set the pitch so water drains. Extensions help move water away from the foundation, and hangers go into solid fascia.

Potential Local Problems

Common issues in Wilmington

Clogged gutter along a roofline overflowing with twigs and debris beneath mature trees

Oak Leaf and Twig Buildup

Live oak leaves and twigs fall through much of the year and clog open gutters. A clogged gutter can overflow and send water onto the fascia and siding.

Downspout at the corner of a house surrounded by wet leaves and pooling debris

Overflow in Summer Storms

Heavy summer storms can send more water than a clogged or undersized gutter can hold. Water then spills over the edge and pools near the foundation.

Gutter blocked with dried leaves and debris before winter weather arrives

Slow Drainage in Cooler Months

Leaves that drop in late fall can sit in gutters through the cool, wet winter. Water backs up behind them and can leak at the seams.

Standing debris, moss, and trapped moisture inside a gutter channel

Pests and Trapped Moisture

Wet debris in a gutter holds moisture in Wilmington’s humid air. That can draw mosquitoes and other pests and wear down the wood behind the gutter.

Why Gutter Guards

Why a Guard Belongs on Wilmington Gutters

New gutters still clog. Oak leaves, spring oak tassels, and twigs land in them through the year. Once a gutter clogs, rain overflows instead of reaching the downspout.

LeafFilter is engineered to prevent common debris from entering gutters. It is installed at an angle which can help shed debris while accepting water. Together, new gutters and LeafFilter make a gutter system built to cut down on clogs.

Debris falls here in waves. Oaks drop tassels in spring, live oaks shed leaves through the year, and sweetgums and maples drop theirs in late fall. Storms can add twigs at any time. One or two cleanings a year often do not keep up.

LeafFilter is engineered to significantly reduce gutter maintenance. That means fewer trips up the ladder and more time for other things.

When to Replace

When a Gutter Repair Is No Longer Enough

Repairs can help with a loose hanger or a small leak. A run that keeps leaking, sagging, or pulling away from the fascia is often better replaced. Here are the signs to watch for.

Sagging gutters

Overflowing gutters can wash away soil and mulch, damage plants and driveways, and weaken your curb appeal.

Soffit and fascia rot

Backed-up water can seep into fascia boards and soffits, causing wood rot and weakening the roofline over time.

Foundation flooding

When gutters overflow, water pools around your home’s base, and can lead to basement leaks, cracks, and costly structural damage.

Bill came out today and did a complete survey of our old gutters. He was very upfront, took pictures and measured. I did not know how bad they were until he showed me the pictures.I ordered a complete gutter system . Bill was very professional and I enjoyed his honesty. Looking forward to getting the new gutters.

Dean stopped by today to give me an estimate on some gutter work. He took time with me to clearly understand my need. He provided a detailed estimate and immediately scheduled my work for the following day. It was a pleasure working with him on this stage of the job.

Professional Installation

Gutter installation done right

A careful install starts with measuring every run. We set the pitch so water drains, fasten hangers into solid fascia, and place downspouts to carry water away. We clean up the work area before we leave.

Common Questions

Wilmington Homeowners Ask About New Gutters

How do I know if my gutters need replacing instead of repair?

A repair may be enough for one loose hanger or a small leak. Replacement often makes more sense when a run keeps leaking, sags, rusts, or pulls away from the fascia. Our crew checks the full run and tells you what we find.

Will LeafFilter cut down on gutter cleaning in Wilmington?

That is what it is built to do. In Wilmington, oaks drop tassels in spring, live oaks shed leaves all year, and most other leaves come down in late fall. LeafFilter helps prevent debris from entering the gutter that can cause clogs, for low gutter maintenance.

Can LeafFilter be installed with new gutters?

Yes. When we install new gutters, we use seamless gutters and we can add our LeafFilter guard on top, so you get a complete gutter system. Our gutter guards can also be installed on existing gutters in good shape, so replacement is not always necessary.
