HOW DO I PREPARE FOR MY GUTTER INSTALLATION PROJECT?
Assessment and Planning
Evaluate your home's current gutter system and determine the scope of the project. Consider factors such as gutter size, materials, and any necessary repairs.
Clearing and Cleaning
Clear debris from the existing gutters and ensure the roof and surrounding areas are clean. This promotes proper drainage and prevents clogs during and after installation.
Consultation
Consult with a professional gutter installer to discuss options and obtain a detailed estimate. Schedule the installation at a convenient time, considering weather conditions that could affect the process.
What Causes Gutter Damage?
Gutters are designed to work hard and carry large amounts of water away from your home's foundation. Time as well as wear and tear can take a toll on your gutters. Improper installation and poor maintenance practices can cause gutter damage. Some examples of causes of gutter damage include:
- Gutters are too small. Gutters must be large enough to carry large amounts of water away from your home. Gutters that are too small can be easily overwhelmed by the runoff from your roof. Over time, the weight of water will cause your gutters to buckle, warp, or pull away from your house.
- Gutters are poorly installed. Gutters must be properly installed. Poor installation can cause gutters to tear away from your house or bend under the weight of water. Proper installation is vital to ensure a long service life for your gutters.
- Lack of maintenance. Maintenance is key to ensuring your gutters remain in good condition. Gutters need periodic cleaning to avoid becoming clogged, and sometimes need sealing, too. Engaging in proper maintenance can help keep your gutters in good condition.
- Ice dams. An ice dam is a blockage that occurs in winter. Ice fills the gutters, weighing them down and causing damage. An ice dam can also lead to leaks in your home as ice backs up underneath your shingles.


Factors to Consider When Choosing New Gutters
Choosing new gutters is a big responsibility. Your new gutters will impact your home's appearance and functionality for years to come. Working with a trusted professional for gutter installation or gutter replacement is important.
The professionals at FTC Oury Group offer gutter services to keep your home exterior new. We also provide our customers with top tips when choosing gutters to help them through the process. Factors to consider include:
- Material. Gutters can be made from many materials, including aluminum, vinyl, galvanized steel, and copper. Aluminum is the most common because it's strong, lightweight, and long-lasting.
- Style. Gutters come in two styles: half-round and K-style. Half-round gutters are more costly because they're more difficult to install, but can also flush debris more easily.
- Seamless or sectional. Sectional gutters have seams that are sealed shut, while seamless gutters are made from a long piece fitted to your home. Seamless gutters have fewer leaks but can be more costly.

Tips for Gutter Maintenance
Gutters need regular maintenance so they can last as long as possible.
- Clean gutters once or twice annually. If your gutters are full and overflowing, get them cleaned.
- Inspect your gutters periodically and caulk seams to stop leaks as needed.
- Have your gutters repaired by professionals if you notice them sagging or pulling away from your house.
- Get your gutters installed by professionals you trust. Gutters last longer when they're properly fitted to your house and properly installed.
