Gutter installation
& repair.
Done right.
Gutters protect your foundation, siding, and landscaping from Colorado's intense spring storms and snowmelt. We install seamless aluminum gutters custom-cut on-site for a precise fit with no leaking joints.
Why Gutters Matter in Colorado
Colorado Springs averages over 17 inches of rain annually, most of it falling in heavy bursts from May through September. Without properly functioning gutters, that water sheets off the roof directly against your foundation — leading to basement leaks, soil erosion, and cracked foundation walls over time.
In winter, snowmelt compounds the problem. Ice dams form when heat escaping through the roof melts snow that refreezes at the eaves, backing water under shingles. Properly installed gutters with adequate slope move water away from vulnerable areas before it can refreeze and cause damage.
- ✓Foundation protection from concentrated roof runoff
- ✓Ice dam prevention with proper gutter slope and heating options
- ✓Siding and paint preservation — no splash-back staining
- ✓Landscape protection from erosion channels
- ✓Basement and crawl space moisture control
Our Gutter Services
New Gutter Installation
Seamless aluminum gutters formed on-site from a single continuous piece. Custom-fit to your roofline with proper slope for maximum drainage. Available in 5-inch and 6-inch K-style profiles.
Gutter Repair
Sagging sections, pulled-away fascia boards, leaking joints, and improper slope. We fix what is there when full replacement is not necessary — honest assessment, no upselling.
Gutter Replacement
When repairs no longer make sense — heavily corroded sections, multiple leak points, or gutters damaged by ice and hail. We remove the old system and install new seamless gutters.
Gutter Guard Installation
Micro-mesh and reverse-curve gutter guards that keep pine needles, leaves, and debris out while letting water flow freely. Especially important in Black Forest, Monument, and Woodmoor.

Common Gutter Problems in Colorado
Colorado's combination of heavy hail, pine needle debris, freeze-thaw cycles, and intense UV creates gutter problems you will not find in milder climates.
Sagging from Ice Weight
Ice buildup in winter can weigh hundreds of pounds per section. Gutters pull away from the fascia, bending hangers and creating low spots where water pools instead of draining.
Pine Needle Clogs
Ponderosa pine needles slip through standard gutter screens and pack into downspouts. Homes near Black Forest or Monument Hill deal with this constantly without guards.
Pulled-Away Fascia
When gutters sag under ice or debris, the fascia board they are mounted to can crack or pull away from the rafter tails. We repair fascia before installing new gutters.
Improper Slope
Gutters need a slight slope — about 1/4 inch per 10 feet — toward the downspout. Improperly sloped gutters hold standing water, attract mosquitoes, and overflow during rain.
Replace Your Gutters With Your Roof
If you are getting a new roof — whether from storm damage or age — that is the best time to replace your gutters too. During a roof replacement, we already remove the drip edge and gutter apron. Adding new gutters at that point costs less than a standalone gutter project because the labor overlaps.
More importantly, installing gutters at the same time as a new roof ensures proper integration. The drip edge sits correctly over the gutter lip, the gutter apron seals against water intrusion, and everything is aligned for the next 25-30 years.
Bundling Saves Money
- +Shared labor reduces total project cost
- +Drip edge and gutter apron integrated properly
- +One crew, one project, less disruption
- +Insurance claims often cover gutters with roof damage
Gutter Questions
Most Colorado Springs homes do well with standard 5-inch K-style gutters. Homes with large roof areas, steep pitches, or heavy tree cover may benefit from 6-inch gutters. We assess your roof geometry and recommend the right size during your free estimate.
If you live near pine trees — Black Forest, Monument, Woodmoor — gutter guards pay for themselves in reduced maintenance. Pine needles clog standard gutters fast, especially after fall needle drop. Guards keep debris out while letting water flow through. For homes without heavy tree cover, they are optional but still reduce cleaning frequency.
Without gutter guards, at least twice a year — once in late spring after pollen and cottonwood season, and again in late fall after leaf and needle drop. With guards, an annual check is usually enough. We recommend inspecting gutters after any major hailstorm as well.
Seamless gutters are custom-formed from a single piece of aluminum on-site, so there are no joints along the run except at corners and downspouts. Fewer joints means fewer leak points. Sectional gutters come in pre-cut pieces joined together. We install seamless gutters because they last longer and look cleaner.
Gutter installation typically runs $8 to $15 per linear foot for standard aluminum seamless gutters, depending on stories, corners, and downspout count. A typical Colorado Springs home with 150-200 linear feet of gutter usually falls between $1,200 and $3,000 installed. We provide free on-site estimates with no obligation.
Absolutely — and we recommend it. When we strip the old roof, the gutter apron and drip edge get replaced anyway. Bundling gutter replacement with your roof project ensures proper integration between the new roofing and the gutter system, and it saves on labor costs compared to doing them separately.
