Gutter Installation in Santa Barbara, California

The winter rain on the coast comes steady and the oak and eucalyptus trees fill the gutters with leaves. Gutter installation in Santa Barbara moves the water away from the house and protects the foundation.

Signs Your Santa Barbara Home Needs New Gutters

• The gutters are leaking at the seams — the old sectional gutters have failed
• The gutters are sagging or pulling away — the hangers are rusted or the gutters are full
• The water is pooling around the foundation — the downspouts are not carrying the water far enough
• The fascia boards are rotting — the water is spilling over the back of the gutter
• The gutters are rusting through — the old galvanized steel has reached the end

Why Santa Barbara Homes Need Gutters

The coastal winter brings most of the annual rain between November and March. The storms come steady and the water soaks the ground around the foundation. Without gutters, the water pools against the foundation and the soil erodes.

The oak and eucalyptus trees add the second factor. The leaves and the debris fill the gutters and the downspouts clog.

How We Install Gutters in Santa Barbara

1. Measure the roofline — the linear footage, the downspout locations, and the slope
2. Form the seamless gutters — the aluminum coil is formed on site to the exact length
3. Install the hangers — the hidden hangers attach the gutter to the fascia
4. Install the downspouts — the downspouts carry the water to the ground
5. Test the system — the water runs through the full length and drains at the downspouts

Preventing Roof Problems in Santa Barbara

• Clean the gutters each fall — the oak and eucalyptus leaves fill the gutters
• Check the downspouts for clogs — the leaves block the water flow
• Check the hangers each spring — the winter weight can pull the gutters loose
• Check the splash guards — the water needs to drain away from the foundation

Expert tip: in Santa Barbara, the seamless aluminum gutter is the standard. The sectional gutters leak at the seams, and the winter rain finds every gap. The seamless gutter has no joints in the run.
