Why Gutters Matter More Here
Staten Island winters run freeze-thaw cycles all season. Clogged gutters hold water, that water freezes, and ice dams form at the roof edge, forcing meltwater backward up under the shingles and into the house. The majority of winter leak calls we see trace back to a gutter that didn't get cleaned in November.
New seamless gutters on a typical SI home run $1,200–$2,800 installed. Cleanings run $150–$350. Compare that to the cost of replacing rotted fascia, soaked insulation, and a stained ceiling, and gutters are the best money you'll spend on the house all year.
Frequently Asked Questions
How often should gutters be cleaned on Staten Island?
Twice a year, late spring and, most importantly, late fall after the leaves finish dropping. Homes under mature trees may need a third pass.
Are gutter guards worth it?
Quality micro-mesh guards, yes, they eliminate routine cleanouts and pay for themselves in a few seasons. Cheap snap-in screens, no, they clog on top and are harder to service than open gutters.
My gutters overflow even when clean. Why?
Usually undersized gutters or too few downspouts for the roof area. Upgrading from 5-inch to 6-inch gutters and adding a downspout typically solves it.
