Lakeland South Gutter Solutionists
Gutters for Lakeland South’s lake neighborhoods
Lakeland South is an unincorporated community in southwest King County, set between Federal Way, Auburn and the county line, with four small lakes inside its borders: Trout Lake, Fivemile Lake, Lake Killarney and Lake Geneva. Military Road South, cut between 1858 and 1860, still runs along the east shore of Fivemile Lake past the county park. Homes here are younger than in much of the South Sound, with State Route 18 along the north edge and Interstate 5 touching the northwest corner. The median house in the census place was built in 1986, and more than a third went up between 1980 and 1999.
Rain is the big story. The NOAA gauge at Lakeland North, about four miles north, averages 54.93 inches a year, roughly 14 inches more than the Tacoma No. 1 station, and more than 20 inches of that lands from December through February. Add second-growth Douglas fir, western red cedar and bigleaf maple on most lots, and gutters fill fast. A house still wearing its original 1980s gutters is often working with less capacity than this much water calls for, so we size new systems for the load, often with 6-inch seamless gutters and larger downspouts.
Our franchise belongs to Jamie and Zeke Edwards, husband and wife, both raised in the South Sound and running The Brothers That Just Do Gutters Tacoma together. In Lakeland South we clean and flush gutters, repair sags and leaking corners, form new seamless runs on-site, install BroGuard under the firs and route downspouts away from lake-lot foundations. Neighbors in Lakeland North and Federal Way get the same local crew and the same free written estimate.

Why the Brothers
Why Lakeland South Homeowners Call the Brothers
A gauge just north of here averages almost 55 inches a year, so we size gutters and downspouts for the storms this area actually gets.
Homes near Lake Geneva, Lake Killarney and Fivemile Lake need roof water carried across the yard, not left to pond against the foundation.
BroGuard micro-mesh stops Douglas fir needles and bigleaf maple leaves at the surface, so the trough stays open all winter.
Jamie and Zeke Edwards own and run this franchise. Call (253) 777-1572 to set up a free written estimate for your Lakeland South home.
Year-round
Your Lakeland South gutter calendar
How the gutter year runs on Lakeland South homes, from the needle drop through the heaviest winter rain.
- Fall · Sep to NovClean before the soak
Needles and maple leaves come down while rain picks up in October, so we clear troughs and flush downspouts before the wet stretch.
- Winter · Dec to FebHeavy-rain repairs
More than 20 inches normally falls in these three months. We handle overflowing corners, pulled spikes and clogged outlets between storms.
- Spring · Mar to MayMoss and mesh
Moss and cone debris washed loose over the winter come out, and BroGuard goes on roofs that clogged more than once.
- Summer · Jun to AugReplacement season
The drier weeks are the window to swap old sectional gutters for seamless runs and replace tired fascia before fall.

What Homeowners Across the Region Say
“I had a great experience with The Brothers That Just Do Gutters on my Tacoma home. The crew were professional, communicative, and did outstanding work. The new gutters and gutter guards look great, everything was installed with attention to detail, and they left the job site spotless. Highly recommend them to anyone looking for quality work and great service.”
Posted on Google“I had the Brothers Gutters put new gutters on my 26×108 ft building. They not only gave me the best price but their customer service was outstanding. They were on time with the appointment and finished in 2 hours. I would highly recommend them when doing your gutter repair or primary install.”
Posted on Google“At the start, Zeke was willing to work with my schedule, and they were prompt and on time. They worked with me, giving me options on the locations and directions of the downspouts, explaining the pros and cons of each option. Their pricing was very competitive… I highly recommend their services, even if it is not the lowest price. You won’t regret it.”

Volume, mostly. The NOAA station in Lakeland North averages 54.93 inches of rain a year, well above the roughly 41 inches measured at Tacoma, and that water arrives with fir needles and maple leaves. Undersized runs and clogged downspouts cannot keep up. We check size, pitch and outlets, then recommend cleaning, repair or new seamless runs in writing.
Often, yes, if the roof is large or steep or the house sits under tall trees. A 6-inch run holds more water and pairs with bigger downspouts that clog less. On a smaller roof a well-pitched 5-inch system can be enough. We measure the roof area during the free estimate and show you both options.
Away from the house and into a spot that can take it. Around Lake Geneva and Fivemile Lake many yards fall toward the water, so we use downspout extensions or underground drain lines that keep runoff from pooling at the foundation or cutting across the lawn. We lay out the route with you before any digging starts.
Plan on twice a year in Lakeland South, once after the leaves fall and again in spring. Homes right under Douglas fir often need a third pass, because needles slide into the downspouts and pack tight. Our maintenance program schedules the visits for you, and BroGuard mesh cuts the number you need.
Yes. Our crew works all through Lakeland South and the communities around it, including Lakeland North, Federal Way, Auburn, Algona, Pacific, Milton and Edgewood. Every job starts with a free written estimate. Call (253) 777-1572 or book online and tell us which lake you live closest to.
