You’re not looking at gutters because you love home improvement projects. You’re here because water is pooling near your foundation, your basement’s getting damp, or you’re tired of watching ice rip sections of gutter off your roofline every winter.
Good gutter installation fixes that. When rain gutters are installed correctly with the right pitch and properly sealed seams, water moves away from your home instead of into it. That means your foundation stays dry, your basement stays usable, and you’re not dealing with erosion around your landscaping every spring.
In Wenham, where we get 200 days of precipitation a year and winters that swing between freeze and thaw, your gutters need to handle more than occasional rain. They need to move heavy spring runoff, manage leaf buildup in fall, and survive ice loading when snow piles up on your roof. Seamless gutters give you fewer failure points, which means fewer leaks and less maintenance over time.
We’ve been serving Essex County homeowners for years as a locally owned company that understands New England weather. We’re an Owens Corning Preferred Contractor, which means we meet strict standards for quality and customer service—not just on roofing, but across every exterior project we touch.
We’re based in Methuen and work throughout Wenham, Beverly, Danvers, and the surrounding area. Most of our work comes from referrals, which tells you something about how we operate. When you call, you’re talking to people who’ve seen what happens when gutters fail in a nor’easter or when ice dams take out a whole section of fascia.
We don’t just install gutters. We handle siding, roofing, and full exterior remodeling, so we understand how every part of your home’s exterior works together. That means better installation and fewer problems down the road.
First, we come out to look at your home. We’re checking your roofline, fascia condition, current drainage patterns, and where water’s actually going when it rains. If there’s rot or damage, we’ll tell you before we hang new gutters over a problem.
Next, we measure and fabricate your seamless gutters on-site. These are custom-formed from a single piece of aluminum, so there are no seams along the runs where leaks usually start. We calculate the right pitch so water moves toward downspouts without pooling, and we position downspouts to move water away from your foundation—not just dump it at the base of your house.
Installation includes new hangers, end caps, and downspouts. If you’re in an area prone to ice dams, we’ll talk through options like heat cables or gutter guards. Once everything’s up, we test water flow and make sure your drainage is actually working. You’ll know exactly what we did and why, and you’ll have gutters that do their job through every season.

When we install gutters in Wenham, you’re getting seamless aluminum gutters that resist rust and hold up to freeze-thaw cycles. We use quality hangers and fasteners that won’t pull away when gutters fill with ice, and we make sure your fascia is solid before we attach anything.
Downspouts are positioned based on your property’s grading and drainage needs. We’re not just connecting them to the gutter—we’re making sure water moves far enough away from your foundation to actually protect it. If your yard slopes toward your house or you’ve got drainage issues, we’ll talk through solutions before we start.
We also install gutter guards if you want them. Wenham’s got plenty of mature trees, and if you’re tired of climbing a ladder twice a year to clear leaves, guards can cut down on maintenance. They won’t eliminate it completely, but they help, especially in fall when leaf buildup can block water flow and lead to ice dam problems in winter.
You’ll also get straight answers about what your gutters can and can’t do. They won’t fix an ice dam that’s caused by poor attic insulation, but they will move water away from your home when they’re clear and functioning. We’ll tell you what’s realistic.
Gutter installation in the Boston metro area typically runs between $6 and $14 per linear foot, depending on material, gutter width, and your home’s layout. Most homeowners spend somewhere between $1,500 and $3,000 for a full installation, but that can go higher if you’ve got a larger home, multiple stories, or fascia damage that needs repair first.
Seamless aluminum gutters are the most common choice because they’re durable, rust-resistant, and cost-effective. If you want gutter guards added, that’s an additional cost, usually a few dollars more per linear foot depending on the system. Copper gutters or custom work will push the price higher, but for most homes in Wenham, aluminum is the right balance of performance and value.
We give you a clear estimate after we see your home. No surprises, no upselling—just a straightforward price based on what your home actually needs.
Most gutter installations take one day, sometimes two if your home is larger or we’re dealing with fascia repairs. We fabricate seamless gutters on-site, which speeds things up and ensures a custom fit for your roofline.
Weather can affect timing. If it’s pouring rain or we’re in the middle of a snowstorm, we’ll reschedule rather than rush through an installation that won’t hold up. You want gutters that are installed right, not fast.
Once we’re done, cleanup is part of the job. We haul away old gutters if you’re replacing them, and we don’t leave a mess in your yard. You’ll have functioning gutters and a clean property when we’re finished.
Seamless gutters are worth it. Sectional gutters have joints every ten feet or so, and those joints are where leaks start. Over time, the seals break down, sections pull apart, and you’re dealing with water dripping behind the gutter or overflowing at the seams.
Seamless gutters are formed from one continuous piece of material for each run, so the only seams are at the corners and downspouts. Fewer seams mean fewer potential failure points. In Massachusetts, where freeze-thaw cycles put stress on every part of your exterior, that matters.
Seamless gutters also look cleaner. There are no visible joints along the roofline, so they blend better with your home’s exterior. If you’re investing in new gutters, seamless is the smarter choice for performance and longevity.
Gutters don’t cause ice dams, but they don’t prevent them either. Ice dams form when heat escapes through your roof, melts snow, and that water refreezes at the roof edge. The real fix is better attic insulation and ventilation.
That said, gutters do play a role once ice dams start forming. When gutters fill with ice, they can bend, pull away from the fascia, or get ripped off entirely. If you’re in an area where ice dams are common, we can install heat cables in your gutters to help melt ice and keep water flowing. We’ll also make sure your gutters are clear before winter so there’s no debris trapping water.
The best approach is to address the insulation issue and make sure your gutters are installed properly with the right pitch and drainage. That combination gives you the best chance of avoiding damage when winter hits.
If your fascia is soft, rotted, or pulling away from the roofline, it needs repair before new gutters go up. Fascia is what holds your gutters in place, and if it’s compromised, new gutters won’t stay attached for long.
We check fascia condition during the estimate. If there’s damage, we’ll show you what’s going on and explain what needs to be fixed. Sometimes it’s a small section that can be replaced quickly. Other times, you’re looking at more extensive rot from years of leaking gutters or poor drainage.
Fixing fascia adds to the cost, but it’s not optional. Hanging gutters on rotted wood is like putting new tires on a car with a broken axle—it doesn’t solve the problem. We’ll give you a clear picture of what’s needed and why, so you can make an informed decision.
Gutter guards can reduce maintenance, but they’re not magic. If you’ve got a lot of trees around your home—oak, maple, pine—you’re going to be dealing with leaf buildup every fall. Guards help keep the bulk of debris out, but you’ll still need to check your gutters periodically and clear them if needed.
The benefit is that you’re not climbing a ladder every few months to scoop out handfuls of wet leaves. In Wenham, where fall cleanup is a real thing and clogged gutters can lead to ice dam problems in winter, guards can be worth it. They also help if you’re not physically able to get up on a ladder or you just don’t want to deal with the maintenance.
We’ll walk you through the options based on your property. Some homes benefit more than others. If your roof is surrounded by mature trees and you’re tired of constant gutter cleaning, guards make sense. If you’ve got minimal tree cover, you might not need them.
