Why Gutters Matter
What Happens Without Proper Gutters?
Water is your building’s silent enemy. Poor drainage leads to expensive repairs.
Foundation Damage
Water pooling around your foundation causes cracks, settling, and structural damage—repairs can cost $10,000+
Facade Deterioration
Constant water exposure stains brick, erodes mortar, and damages siding. Historic brownstones are especially vulnerable.
Landscape Erosion
Uncontrolled runoff washes away soil, damages plantings, and creates muddy areas around your property.
Basement Flooding
Improper drainage is the #1 cause of wet basements in NYC. Protect your lower level and belongings.
Ice Dams
Clogged or damaged gutters contribute to ice dam formation, causing roof leaks and interior damage.
Pest Problems
Standing water in gutters attracts mosquitoes and provides entry points for wood-destroying insects.

Gutter Maintenance Tips for NYC Building Owners
1. Clean twice yearly—spring and fall after leaves drop. NYC trees shed heavily.
2. Check after storms—debris can block downspouts and cause overflow.
3. Inspect hangers—NYC weather causes expansion/contraction that loosens mounts.
4. Watch for standing water—indicates improper slope or blockage.
5. Consider gutter guards—reduce maintenance on heavily tree-lined streets.
6. Address rust spots—early treatment prevents gutter replacement.
