Dunwoody Gutter Repair and Replacement
Gutter repair or replacement is required when your Dunwoody, Georgia residential or commercial rain gutters and downspouts leak, or fail to manage heavy rainfall without being overwhelmed. When gutters do not function, the structure is susceptible to far more expensive issues including soffit and fascia wood deterioration, concrete foundation settling, as well as soil erosion damage.
What size gutters are best in Dunwoody?
Dunwoody, Georgia’s combination of steady rainfall and tree canopy make upgrading to 6-inch gutters paired with reliable gutter guards a practical and protective investment for homeowners. The DeKalb County area of north metro Atlanta receives approximately 50 inches of rainfall each year, and sudden cloudbursts and intense afternoon storms are common. These fast, heavy downpours can quickly exceed the capacity of traditional 5-inch gutters, leading to water overflowing along rooflines and collecting around the home causing the foundation of Dunwoody properties to experience sinkage.
Is gutter guard necessary in Dunwoody?
Dunwoody’s beautiful tree lined streets make gutter guard on 6 inch seamless gutters crucial. Without gutter guard, mature hardwood and tall Georgia pine trees will clog your gutters with leaves and pine needles.

Gutter Sizing
We install 4, 6 and 7 inch custom fit gutters and downspouts. Your new gutters and downspouts will be made on location to fit perfectly without seams or unsightly bridging. Correctly sizing a gutter is vital to the success of the system. Some structures have gutters that are inadequate to the volume of rainfall they must manage. This may be the case if water runs over the top of your gutters during normal rainfall. If larger gutters will be more suitable to collect and divert the water away from the foundation of your home or business we can make that determination and install them.
Gutter Guard
The type of gutter guard that will work best for your home will depend on several factors. If squirrels and roof rats are invading your attic, we apply a double guard system. First, a solid metal barrier is installed to block the access for attic critters. Then, we install a second guard, either solid or screened, to prevent gutter clogging. The type of trees and the roof pitch will determine which is best for your home or office building.
Powder coated expanded wire gutter guard guarantee great-looking long-term protection against rust, rodents and debris.
Our mesh gutter guard is best for areas with an abundance of pine needles. Gutter caps are available for flat roofs.
One-Piece Gutter Systems
We do not install one-piece gutter and gutter guard systems as they are easily overwhelmed by heavy rainfall. The excess rainwater pours over the top of one-piece gutter systems onto to your fascia and soffit causing wood damage. Excess water may also find its way under your home’s foundation causing cracking as well as mold and mildew issues.
One Size Gutter Never Fits All
There is no single gutter, downspout or gutter guard solution for every structure. That's because each structure has its own unique needs and therefore demands an equally unique perspective to determine the best solution.
The best gutter guard solution for your home or business must factor the size, number of valleys and the pitch of the roof as well as the types of trees in the vicinity. This unique approach will ensure the best result for your rain gutters and gutter guard.
