What Ladue houses do to gutters

Most of what we hang in Ladue goes on large estate homes, many with slate or tile roofs, and the neighborhoods we're in most weeks are Deer Creek, Warson, Litzsinger corridor. The housing stock skews 1920–1960, 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: aluminum gutter hung under a slate roof, which lasts about a third as long as the roof above it. We see it enough in Ladue that it's usually the first thing we check.

A slate roof outlives four sets of aluminum gutter. On those homes copper is the cheaper decision over time.

Trees, debris and what that means for guards

Ladue has heavy mature hardwood. 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 Ladue work tends to be copper half-round on slate 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.
