What Chesterfield houses do to gutters

Most of what we hang in Chesterfield goes on 1990s and 2000s two-story subdivisions with steep roof pitches, and the neighborhoods we're in most weeks are Wildhorse, Baxter Ridge, Kehrs Mill, Schoettler Grove. The housing stock skews 1988–2006, which tells you a lot before we ever get on a ladder — homes of one era fail in the same way.

The specific one here: 5-inch gutter on a 10/12 pitch roof that shoots water clean over the lip in any real downpour. We see it enough in Chesterfield that it's usually the first thing we check.

A lot of Chesterfield roofs were built with the smallest gutter the builder could get away with. On those pitches the water is moving fast enough to skip the trough entirely.

Trees, debris and what that means for guards

Chesterfield has planted oaks and pin oaks that have finally grown over the rooflines. That's the single biggest factor in how often a gutter here needs clearing, and it's why the guard conversation goes differently street to street.

Our angle on Chesterfield work tends to be oversized 6-inch runs on steep roofs — that's where the money and the headaches usually are on these houses. If your gutters are clean and still overflowing, it isn't debris, and we'd rather measure the roof planes than sell you a cleaning that won't fix it.

Estimates are free. If it turns out you need a repair rather than a replacement, that's what we'll quote.
