Managing the heavy rainfall of the Pacific Northwest requires a tailored approach to drainage. With annual rainfall in our region often exceeding 1,200 mm, we offer several professional options for gutter and drainage repair to protect your home’s foundation and structural integrity.
Our primary repair and upgrade options include:
- Seamless Gutter Repair and Installation: We provide aluminum seamless gutters that resist corrosion and are specifically designed to handle heavy downpours without leaking at the seams.
- Downspout Upgrades and Extensions: We ensure downspouts are properly placed and extended at least 1.8 metres (6 feet) away from your foundation to prevent basement flooding and soil erosion.
- Leaf Guard and Gutter Screen Systems: To minimize the maintenance burden and prevent clogs from leaves or agricultural debris, we install high-quality gutter guards.
- Specialized Component Repair: This includes sealing leaks in gutter joints, reinforcing sagging gutters with heavy-duty brackets, and upgrading valley flashing to ensure water is directed correctly toward the drainage system.
- Regional Customizations: Depending on your location, we may recommend oversized gutters for steep slopes in North Vancouver, moss treatments for cedar roofs in Coquitlam, or internal roof drain inspections for flat roofs in Richmond.
We recommend cleaning your gutters and downspouts at least twice a year—typically in the spring and fall—to prevent water backup. Claim your complimentary roof inspection today so we can assess your system and ensure it meets RCABC standards. Please note that estimates are subject to onsite inspection and may change after a full assessment.
