For most Jacksonville homes, a 6-inch K-style seamless gutter is the right size. Larger custom homes, steep architectural rooflines, metal roofs, clay tile roofs, and high-volume roof valleys typically need 7-inch K-style. Very large homes, commercial buildings, and box-gutter applications can require 8-inch. Gutter Pro does not install 5-inch gutters in Northeast Florida because they overflow in Florida's high-volume rain events. Your free on-site quote includes a roof-area calculation that sizes the system to actual rainfall load.

Gutter Pro installs 6-inch, 7-inch, and 8-inch seamless gutters. K-style is available in all three sizes. Box gutter is available in 7-inch and 8-inch. Half-round is available in 6-inch and 8-inch. We do not install 5-inch gutters because they are undersized for Northeast Florida rainfall and the heavy roof areas typical of larger homes here.

K-style is the most efficient profile for high-volume Florida rainfall and works on most homes. Half-round is the classic profile for historic, Mediterranean, and architectural homes - it self-cleans more efficiently and pairs beautifully with copper. Box gutter has the maximum carrying capacity and is built for large modern homes, commercial buildings, and rooflines that drop heavy water in concentrated runs. We help you pick based on roof area, architectural style, and discharge plan during the free on-site walk.

For Northeast Florida, commercial-grade aluminum with a baked-on enamel finish is the workhorse - rust-proof, salt-air tolerant, and 30+ color options. Galvalume (steel core with aluminum-zinc alloy coating) is the strongest option for large spans and modern industrial looks. Copper is the premium long-term choice - 50+ year service life with proper soldering and compatible hardware, ideal for historic and architectural homes. Gutter Pro fabricates all three on-site.

Yes. Seamless gutters are custom-fabricated on-site from a single piece of aluminum or copper to match your roofline exactly, eliminating the joints in the middle of each run where sectional gutters leak. Fewer seams means fewer failure points, longer service life, and a cleaner appearance. Every gutter Gutter Pro installs is seamless - rolled on our truck-mounted machine to the exact length of each run.

A 3-by-4-inch rectangular downspout pairs with 6-inch K-style on most Northeast Florida homes. A 4-by-5-inch oversized rectangular downspout is required for 7-inch and 8-inch gutters or any high-volume run. A 4-inch round downspout pairs with half-round gutters and copper systems. Undersized downspouts are the most common reason for "the gutters overflow" complaints - we size them to actual flow, not the builder default.

Most residential seamless gutter installations are completed in a single day. Larger estate-scale homes, complex rooflines with multiple stories, or projects that include underground drainage typically take two to four working days. The on-site quote includes a realistic timeline before any work starts.

Every install includes on-site measurement, seamless fabrication on our truck-mounted machine, hidden hangers fascia-mounted to the rafter tail, marine-grade sealed corners and end caps, downspouts sized to actual flow, removal and haul-off of the old gutters, and a magnetic sweep of the jobsite for screws and nails. Every project is performed by an NDS Certified Professional Drainage Contractor.

Gutter Pro installs Alu-Rex T-Rex hidden hangers spaced every 18 inches, screwed directly into the fascia board. Hidden hangers hold significantly more weight per foot than spike-and-ferrule, do not back out under thermal cycling, and look clean from the curb. Spike-and-ferrule is a 1950s technology that competitors still use because it is faster to install - we will not specify it.

No. You do not need to be home during the install once the design and color are approved. Most homeowners are at work. The crew will text you when they arrive, when major milestones are complete, and when the magnetic sweep is finished. Albert is on-site for design walks and any judgment calls during install.

Yes. Old gutters are removed, hauled away, and disposed of the same day as part of every install. Soffit, fascia, or drainage components are removed only if you have approved that work in advance. We never leave debris in the driveway overnight.

Light rain rarely stops a gutter install. Heavy or sustained rain pauses ladder work for crew safety, and we resume the same day if the storm passes or reschedule to the next available day at no charge. Florida storms are a fact of life in our market, and the schedule is built to absorb them.

LeafBlaster Pro stainless steel micromesh is the right choice for most Jacksonville homes because it handles both oak leaves and pine needles, fits any gutter-to-roof scenario, and carries a 40-year manufacturer warranty. Alu-Rex Double-Pro is a continuous-hanger-plus-cover system that adds structural reinforcement to the gutter itself - ideal for high-volume runs. E-Z Smooth Flow is a budget micromesh option for properties with light debris. Gutter Pro is an authorized installer for all three.

Yes - and Gutter Pro strongly recommends them when downspouts connect to underground drainage. Debris that enters an underground pipe is expensive and disruptive to clear. A clogged 4-inch underground drain often requires excavation or hydro-jetting. A LeafBlaster Pro or Alu-Rex guard at the gutter level prevents the debris from ever entering the system.

No - they reduce cleaning frequency by 80 to 95 percent but the guard surface itself still needs an annual inspection. Pollen, asphalt-shingle grit, and seed pods can build a thin film on micromesh over time. The benefit is that you no longer need to climb a ladder to scoop debris out of the trough every quarter - you just need a once-a-year surface check.

Usually yes. We assess the existing gutter's pitch, hanger spacing, fascia condition, and trough size before installing guards. If the existing gutters are undersized (5-inch), pitched poorly, or held up by failing spike-and-ferrule hangers, the right move is often to replace the gutters and install guards in one project. The on-site quote includes a clear recommendation.

The right solution depends on where the water is coming from. Roof runoff is solved with underground downspout drainage to a pop-up emitter or dry well. Yard groundwater and side-yard pooling is solved with a French drain. Driveway and patio sheet runoff is solved with a channel drain. Marsh-edge and low-lying properties may need a sump pump. As NDS Certified Professional Drainage Contractors, we design the system based on the actual water path on your property, not a one-size-fits-all fix.

Schedule 40 PVC is rigid white pipe with smooth interior walls - it stays open, resists root intrusion, and lasts decades. Black corrugated pipe is flexible and cheap, but it collapses under soil pressure, silts up because of its ridged interior, and grows roots inside it within a few seasons in Florida soil. Gutter Pro installs Schedule 40 PVC only. Re-doing a failed corrugated install costs more than installing Schedule 40 correctly the first time.

A French drain is a perforated pipe in a gravel-filled trench that collects subsurface water and carries it to a safe discharge point. You need one when groundwater is pooling in the yard, when water sits along the foundation after a storm, when a side yard between two homes stays soggy, or when irrigation runoff is killing landscaping. Gutter Pro custom-designs French drains - we do not use templated lengths.

Underground downspout drainage is a buried Schedule 40 PVC pipe that connects each downspout to a safe discharge point - usually a pop-up emitter at the property edge, a dry well, or an approved storm drainage area. It moves water away from the foundation without surface trip hazards, and keeps mulch beds and landscaping from being washed out every storm.

Most Jacksonville homes do not need a sump pump because the water table is manageable with gravity drainage to daylight. Marsh-edge homes, low-lying lots in Clay County and parts of St. Johns County, and homes with chronic crawlspace or foundation seepage are the exceptions. Gutter Pro installs sump pumps when the topography does not allow gravity drainage - we will not specify one if it is not needed.

Most Jacksonville homes need gutter cleaning twice a year - once in late spring after the oak pollen and seed drop, and once in late fall after live oak leaf shed. Homes under heavy oak or pine canopy may need quarterly service. Homes with LeafBlaster Pro or Alu-Rex gutter guards typically need only an annual surface inspection.

A cleaning includes hand removal of debris from every trough, a downspout flush to confirm water flow, a check of every hanger for movement or sag, inspection of corners and end caps for failed sealant, a roofline check for visible fascia or soffit damage, and a final bag-and-haul of all debris. We do not blow debris into the yard or leave it for you to handle.

Technically yes, but ladder falls are the leading cause of home-maintenance injuries, and most homeowners do not have the gutter-scoop tools or the downspout-flush equipment to do a complete job. A missed clog in an underground downspout drain is significantly more expensive to fix than the cleaning service. We do not recommend DIY cleaning on two-story homes or any home with steep grade around the foundation.

Neglected gutters overflow in heavy rain, which causes fascia and soffit rot, foundation seepage, mulch-bed washout, mold along the siding, mosquito breeding in standing water, and in worst cases, water intrusion into wall cavities or crawlspaces. The repair cost for any one of these is typically 10 to 50 times the cost of regular cleaning.

Repair is the right call for isolated issues - one leaking corner, one sagging section, one missing end cap, one broken downspout strap. Replacement is the right call when the gutters are 20+ years old, when the system is undersized for the roof (very common with 5-inch builder-spec gutters on larger homes), when there is widespread rust or paint failure, or when half the hangers have backed out of the fascia. Gutter Pro gives you a clear repair-versus-replace recommendation at the free quote.

Yes. Overflow has three common causes: undersized gutters (5-inch on a roof that needs 6 or 7), undersized or too few downspouts, or a clog in the gutter trough or underground drain. Gutter Pro measures the roof area, recommends the correct size, and locates the actual restriction. The fix is often replacing 5-inch with 6-inch K-style and adding a properly sized downspout - not patching a system that is fundamentally undersized.

Yes. After a named storm, we prioritize storm damage repair calls and document the damage with photos suitable for homeowner's insurance claims. Common storm damage includes detached sections, bent downspouts from falling limbs, separated corners, and torn fascia. We are licensed and insured and can coordinate with insurance adjusters.

Yes. Soffit and fascia repair is one of our regular services because rot behind a gutter is often the underlying problem - not the gutter itself. We replace rotted wood fascia, replace aluminum or vinyl soffit panels, and re-secure the gutter system to sound wood. This is the most common follow-on work after a long-deferred cleaning schedule.

Aluminum and copper handle salt air well. Hardware is what fails. Gutter Pro uses stainless or corrosion-rated fasteners on every coastal install - no exceptions. Standard builder hardware (zinc-plated screws, painted steel hangers) corrodes within a few years on A1A and oceanfront homes. The gutter outlasts the cheap fasteners holding it up, then the whole system fails. Coastal installs cost slightly more in hardware and are worth every penny.

Yes. June through November is the busiest part of our year. Pre-season hurricane prep (gutter inspection, securing loose sections, ensuring downspouts discharge away from the foundation) and post-storm damage repair are both core services. We can typically schedule pre-season inspections within a week.

Heavy live oak canopy drops leaves year-round and acorns seasonally - the right answer is 6-inch (minimum) gutters with LeafBlaster Pro micromesh guards. Pine needles are the real problem because they thread into mesh that is sized wrong - LeafBlaster Pro is rated for pine. Homes under pine canopy without guards typically need quarterly cleaning. We size and spec based on the actual canopy on your property during the free walk.

Yes. Clay County (especially Green Cove Springs, Middleburg, parts of Fleming Island) and any marsh-edge property in Duval, St. Johns, or Nassau County needs drainage designed for high water table conditions. That can include sump pumps, daylighted French drains rather than dry wells, and Schedule 40 PVC with extra slope to discharge above flood elevation. Gutter Pro is NDS-certified specifically for this kind of design work.

Most Jacksonville residential seamless gutter installations fall between $1,800 and $5,500, depending on home size, gutter size (6-inch vs 7-inch vs 8-inch), material (aluminum, galvalume, or copper), number of downspouts, and any drainage work included. Larger estate homes in Ponte Vedra, Old Ponte Vedra, Sawgrass, and similar communities typically run $2,800 to $7,000+. We do not publish a flat per-foot rate because every home is sized to roof area and drainage requirements - the free on-site quote gives you the real number.

Yes. Wisetack 0 percent intro APR financing is available for qualified customers. The application takes about 60 seconds, runs a soft credit check first, and does not affect your credit score unless you accept the offer. Available for both gutter installation and drainage system projects.

Gutter Pro offers a lifetime workmanship warranty on every install - if a seam, corner, hanger, or downspout we installed fails, we fix it at no cost to the original homeowner. Manufacturer warranties cover the materials themselves - up to 50 years on LeafBlaster Pro gutter guards, baked-on enamel finishes on aluminum, and solid copper components. We document the warranty in writing on every project.

Yes. We provide color samples, manufacturer product datasheets, material specifications, and an itemized project description suitable for HOA architectural review submissions. Most HOAs in Sawgrass Players Club, Marsh Landing, The Plantation, Nocatee, World Golf Village, and similar communities are familiar with our work and approve quickly. If the HOA has specific requirements (color, profile, downspout placement), we adjust the spec before submission.

Yes. Gutter Pro is fully licensed and insured for residential and commercial work in Florida. We provide certificates of insurance to community offices, property managers, and commercial customers on request. We never subcontract - every install is performed by Gutter Pro crews.
