How To Choose a Gutter Installer
Research potential gutter installers very carefully before hiring to avoid overpaying or dealing with shoddy work. Here’s what to look for when evaluating gutter installation companies:
Assess Their Experience
When looking for gutter installation, it's advisable to opt for a local company that's served your area for many years, ideally decades. A company’s extensive knowledge of the area's climate, weather, and popular home styles helps it assess your needs and get you the right gutters for your home. These well-established companies employ time-tested methods to enable safe, effective gutter installation.
Verify Proper Licensing and Insurance
Before committing to a contract, verify that the company has the proper credentials. Request to see licensing, bonding, and insurance documentation upfront. Proper certification indicates that the company follows regulations and helps protect you from issues if an injury or property damage occurs during the project.
Check Reviews and Referrals
Browse online reviews on sites like the Better Business Bureau, Google, and Yelp. Check that the company has a proven record of excellent work and good customer service. Look for happy long-term customers to get insights into a provider’s reliability. Watch out for red flags, like poor communication or unfinished jobs. All our recommended providers boast a good average rating across a high number of reviews.
Choose Reputable Brands
Choose an installer with official certification through the gutter manufacturer. You'll want a company that has completed the training program to complete their gutter installations per the manufacturer's specifications in order to get the best results.
Examine Warranties
Only hire a provider that offers strong manufacturer guarantees on materials as well as their own installation warranties. Look for guarantees that last 5–10 years for standard aluminum gutters and 1 to 3 years for labor.
Gutter Installation Materials
Look for resilient materials – such as heavy-gauge aluminum – that won't easily rust, decay, or warp over time. Materials that can handle Marlton’s local weather are best. Also check that paints and finishes have an equally extended lifespan.
Questions to Ask
As you compare potential gutter installation companies, be sure to ask specific questions including these:
- Will you give me a detailed quote for both full gutter replacement and fixes for problem areas? Get quotes in writing from companies, so you know exactly what the price of gutter installation will be before the work begins.
- What steps do you take to ensure my new gutters have the optimal slope and pitch to reduce standing water? Proper pitch and slope greatly reduces the chance of overflow. Your provider should know how to correctly align a gutter system with your home’s roof.
- What are the specific warranty details for materials and workmanship? Quality materials typically have 5–10 year warranties. Labor is typically back by a 1-3 year warranty.
- How do you make sure there’s smooth integration with my existing roof? Check whether steps like underlayment replacement are included.
- What materials are best for my gutters based on the local weather conditions and my specific home style? Factors such as Marlton's average rainfall, snowfall, and the risk of inclement weather in your area will influence the type and size of gutter that's best for you. Learn the advantages and disadvantages of each gutter material.
- How long does the installation process take? Most companies can complete installations in around one day.
- Are you also able to install gutter guards? Adding gutter guards helps prevent clogs that result from leaves and debris getting into your gutters.
Doing your research to evaluate and compare multiple companies helps you select the right gutter installer. Investing in new gutters now helps prevent much pricier water and structural damage down the road.
