FAQ
Gutter Questions, Answered
Costs, timelines, sizing, and service areas — everything Mobile and Baldwin County homeowners ask before booking gutter work.
How much does gutter installation cost in Mobile, AL?
Most single-story homes run $7-$13 per linear foot installed for standard 5" K-style aluminum, with 6" oversized, copper, and complex two-story rooflines costing more. We provide a free written estimate before any work begins.
How long does gutter installation take?
A typical home is installed in a single day. We fabricate gutters on-site, hang them, set downspouts, and clean up before we leave.
What size gutters do I need?
5" K-style handles most Mobile-area homes. 6" K-style is recommended for steep pitches, large roof areas, or homes shaded by pines and oaks where leaf load is heavy.
How often should gutters be cleaned in Mobile, AL?
At least twice a year — spring and fall. Pine-shaded homes often need quarterly cleanings to keep up with the constant pine straw drop.
Do you offer gutter guard warranties?
Yes. Our recommended micro-mesh systems carry manufacturer warranties up to 25 years, plus our lifetime workmanship guarantee on the install.
What are signs of gutter damage?
Visible leaks at corners or seams, sagging or pulling away from fascia, water spilling over the front edge in heavy rain, stains down the siding, and erosion or pooling at the foundation.
What types of gutters do you install?
Seamless aluminum K-style and half-round in 20+ baked-on colors, plus copper and galvalume on request. 5" and 6" sizing.
Are seamless gutters worth it?
Yes. Seamless costs slightly more than sectional but lasts dramatically longer because there are no mid-run joints to leak. On the Gulf Coast, seamless is the right choice almost every time.
