What Florissant houses do to gutters
Most of what we hang in Florissant goes on 1950s and 60s brick ranches on flat lots, and the neighborhoods we're in most weeks are Old Town Florissant, Paddock Forest, Cross Keys. The housing stock skews 1954–1972, 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: short downspout elbows dumping right at the slab, and a wet basement wall on that same corner. We see it enough in Florissant that it's usually the first thing we check.
Florissant lots are flat, which means the downspout has to carry the water somewhere. Six feet of extension solves more basement complaints here than any interior fix.

Trees, debris and what that means for guards
Florissant has street maples and a fair amount of pine. 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 Florissant work tends to be undersized original gutters and grade problems — 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.
