Gutter Installation & Replacement in Medford, OR

If your gutters are sagging, leaking, or pulling away from your home, it’s likely time for replacement. Medford’s seasonal rainfall—particularly during fall and winter months—combined with debris from the area’s abundant trees and vegetation, can accelerate wear and tear. Watch for visible rust, cracks, peeling paint on gutters, or water damage near your foundation as clear indicators.

Aluminum is the best material for new gutter installations in Medford. It’s lightweight, rust-resistant, and durable enough to handle the Rogue Valley’s wet winters and dry summers. For homeowners seeking a premium option, copper offers a distinctive look that develops a natural patina over time while providing excellent longevity.

Most professional gutter installations for Medford homes are completed in one day. Larger properties or homes with complex rooflines may require additional time. The timeline can also depend on factors like the number of stories, linear footage, and whether you’re replacing an existing system or installing new gutters. Medford’s mild weather conditions typically allow for year-round installation, though scheduling before Southern Oregon’s winter rains arrive is ideal.

LeafFilter uses Sherwin Williams Plastilure to match your existing gutter color or coordinate with your home’s exterior. This allows the gutters to blend with your Medford home’s appearance.

The size of gutters depends on your home’s roof area and local rainfall. In Medford, 5-inch gutters work for most homes, but 6-inch gutters are recommended for larger roofs (typically over 1,500-2,000 square feet) or areas with heavier runoff. Medford receives about 19-20 inches of rain annually, with most occurring between November and March.

Yes, new gutters require regular maintenance. In Medford, where wet winters and surrounding trees create debris buildup, most homeowners should clean gutters at least twice yearly—typically in late fall and early spring. Maintenance includes removing leaves and twigs, checking downspouts for blockages, and inspecting for proper water flow. For homeowners seeking low maintenance options, gutter guard systems can help reduce cleaning frequency.

Yes, gutters can be installed on homes with steep or complex roofs. In Medford and throughout Southern Oregon, professional installers regularly work with challenging roof designs—from multi-story homes to properties with multiple valleys, dormers, and varying pitch angles. Steep roofs require extra attention since water flows faster off the roof, especially during Medford’s rainy winter months. Installers address this by using reinforced mounting brackets designed for steep angles, adjusting gutter placement to catch faster-moving water, and sizing gutters appropriately to handle higher water volume. Complex roof designs need custom measurements and careful planning to ensure proper drainage and help protect your home, regardless of roof complexity.

Gutters help protect your home by directing rainwater away from your foundation, walls, and landscaping. In Medford, where most of the area’s 19 inches of annual rainfall occurs between November and March, properly functioning gutters are essential for helping prevent foundation damage, soil erosion, and water intrusion around your home.
