Most gutter problems come from three things: wrong size, wrong pitch, or clogged debris. Fitzhugh Roofing & Maintenance calculates gutter capacity based on your roof area, local rainfall intensity, and downspout placement. Properly sized and pitched gutters handle Fitzhugh's worst rain without overflowing.
Hidden hangers screwed into rafter tails or fascia boards every 24 inches maximum. No spike-and-ferrule hardware that loosens over time. Proper pitch at one-quarter inch per 10 feet toward each downspout outlet. These details are what separate gutters that work from gutters that overflow.
Our Gutter Installation Process
Gutter Assessment
We inspect your current gutters and fascia, measure your roof's effective drainage area, and calculate the gutter size and downspout placement needed to handle Fitzhugh's rainfall. You get an honest recommendation, repair or replace.
On-Site Fabrication
Seamless means exactly that. Every section is one continuous piece formed on-site. Fewer joints means fewer potential leak points. Our portable equipment handles runs up to 100 feet in a single piece.
Precision Hanging
Hidden hangers every 24 inches, screwed into rafter tails through the fascia. Proper pitch to each downspout. Downspouts secured with brackets and directed away from your foundation with splash blocks or underground extensions.
Water Test & Walkthrough
We test the new gutter system with a water flow check before we leave. Every connection, every downspout, every end cap, confirmed watertight. Old material removed and the area cleaned up.
