You’re not looking for gutters that work for a season. You need a system that keeps water away from your foundation during spring thaw, handles October leaf buildup, and doesn’t collapse under snow load in February.
That’s what proper gutter installation does. It stops basement leaks before they start. It prevents the wood rot that creeps into your roof edges when water sits where it shouldn’t. It keeps your siding dry and your landscaping intact.
When rain gutters are installed right, you don’t think about them. No overflows during storms. No ice dams backing up under your shingles. No standing water eating away at your foundation. Just a home that sheds water the way it’s supposed to, year after year.
Paradise Remodeling Inc is a Massachusetts-licensed home improvement contractor serving Somerville and the North Shore. We’re an Owens Corning Preferred Contractor, which means we’ve met strict standards for quality work and customer service—not just once, but consistently.
We rank in the top 8% of over 139,000 licensed contractors in Massachusetts according to BuildZoom. That’s not us bragging. It’s verification that we show up, do the work right, and stand behind it.
Somerville homes deal with weather extremes. We install seamless gutters and gutter guard systems designed for exactly that—heavy snow, constant rain, and the freeze-thaw cycles that destroy poorly installed systems. You get straight answers, fair pricing, and work that lasts.
First, we come out and look at your home. We measure your roofline, check the fascia condition, and figure out where downspouts need to go based on your property’s drainage. You get a free estimate that breaks down exactly what you’re paying for.
Once you’re ready to move forward, we schedule the installation. We fabricate seamless gutters on-site to fit your exact measurements—no joints means fewer leak points. We secure them properly to your fascia, set the correct slope for water flow, and position downspouts to move water away from your foundation.
The install typically takes a day for most homes. We clean up completely when we’re done. You’re left with a gutter system that does its job without you having to think about it. If you want gutter guards installed to cut down on maintenance, we handle that too.

We install seamless aluminum gutters custom-fabricated for your home. These aren’t the sectional gutters from a big box store that leak at every seam. Seamless means fewer weak points and better water flow.
You also get properly sized downspouts placed where they’ll actually move water away from your foundation. In Somerville, that matters. Your soil gets saturated fast during spring melt and heavy rain. If water pools near your foundation, you’re looking at cracks, settling, and eventually basement leaks.
We can add gutter guards if you’re tired of cleaning leaves out twice a year. Somerville’s got plenty of mature trees, and that means debris. Guards won’t eliminate maintenance completely, but they’ll cut it way down. We’ll walk you through whether they make sense for your property—not every home needs them.
Everything we install is backed by our workmanship guarantee. We’re licensed, insured, and we’ve been serving this area long enough to know what holds up and what doesn’t.
Most gutter installation projects in Somerville run between $4 and $30 per linear foot depending on material, home height, and complexity. A typical single-family home with 150-200 linear feet of gutter usually costs between $1,500 and $4,000 for a complete seamless aluminum system.
That range accounts for the number of corners, downspouts, and any fascia repairs needed before installation. Two-story homes cost more because of the equipment and safety requirements. If you want gutter guards added, that’s an additional cost—usually $7 to $12 per linear foot depending on the system.
We give you a free estimate that breaks down exactly what you’re paying for. No surprises, no upsells. You’ll know the total cost before we start any work.
Sectional gutters come in pre-cut pieces that snap or screw together. Every joint is a potential leak point, especially after a few freeze-thaw cycles. They’re cheaper upfront, but you’ll spend more time and money on repairs.
Seamless gutters are fabricated on-site to your home’s exact measurements. We roll out a continuous piece of aluminum for each run, so you only have seams at the corners. Fewer seams means better water flow and way fewer leaks over time.
For Somerville’s weather—heavy snow loads, ice, constant moisture—seamless is the smarter choice. You’re not patching leaks every few years, and the system holds up better when ice forms. It costs a bit more upfront, but it’s the last gutter installation you’ll need for 20+ years.
Most residential gutter installations take one day. We show up in the morning, fabricate the seamless gutters on-site, install them, position the downspouts, and clean up before we leave.
Larger homes or complicated rooflines might take a day and a half. If we’re also repairing fascia or installing gutter guards, add another half day. Weather can delay things—we’re not installing gutters in a rainstorm or when it’s below freezing.
You don’t need to be home the whole time, but we’ll need access to your property and an electrical outlet for our equipment. We’ll give you a clear timeline when we schedule the job so you know exactly what to expect.
It depends on your property. If you’ve got mature trees—especially oaks or maples—dropping leaves into your gutters, guards can save you from climbing a ladder twice a year. Somerville’s got plenty of tree-lined streets, so clogged gutters are a real issue here.
Gutter guards won’t eliminate maintenance completely. You’ll still need to check them once a year and clear off any debris that piles up on top. But they do reduce how often you’re up there scooping out wet leaves and dealing with clogs.
If your home doesn’t have many trees nearby, you might not need them. We’ll tell you honestly whether guards make sense for your situation. Some homeowners would rather just clean their gutters twice a year than pay for a guard system. Both approaches work—it’s about what fits your maintenance preference and budget.
Overflowing gutters usually mean one of three things: they’re clogged, they’re undersized for your roof area, or they’re not sloped correctly. All three are fixable, but you need to address it before water damages your foundation or siding.
When gutters overflow, water pours down right next to your foundation instead of being directed away through downspouts. In Somerville’s clay-heavy soil, that water doesn’t drain quickly. It saturates the ground, seeps into basement walls, and causes cracks. You might also see wood rot on your fascia or soffit where water’s been running over the edge.
If your gutters are overflowing, we’ll figure out why. Sometimes it’s a simple cleaning and adjustment. Other times you need a full replacement with properly sized gutters and enough downspouts to handle your roof’s square footage. We’ll walk you through what’s needed and why.
If your gutters are sagging, pulling away from the fascia, or leaking at multiple points, replacement usually makes more sense than patching. Small leaks at a corner or one loose section can be repaired. Widespread problems mean the system’s reached the end of its life.
Look for rust holes, cracks, or sections where water’s clearly spilling over the back edge. Check if the fascia behind the gutter is rotted or soft—that’s a sign water’s been getting where it shouldn’t. If you’re seeing multiple issues or your gutters are 20+ years old, replacement gives you a fresh start with a system that actually works.
We’ll inspect your current setup and tell you honestly whether repair or replacement makes sense. Sometimes a repair buys you a few more years. Other times you’re throwing money at a system that’s going to keep failing. We’d rather you spend your money once on a solution that lasts.
