Gutters for Lea Hill’s wooded plateau homes
Lea Hill sits on the plateau east of the Auburn valley, a mostly residential area around 400 feet up that joined the city after residents voted for annexation. It grew 58 percent in the 1990s alone, and in ZIP 98092 only about one home in five predates 1980, so most Lea Hill gutters went up in the 1980s, 1990s or later and many are now wearing out at the corners and hangers. Green River College sits on a 260-acre learning forest of Douglas fir and hemlock, and slopes drop off toward the Green River and Big Soos Creek. Evergreens shed needles into gutters all year, and moss takes hold on shaded roof faces.
The Brothers That Just Do Gutters Tacoma is owned by Jamie and Zeke Edwards, a husband-and-wife team. We form seamless gutters on-site to the length of each run, clean and flush downspouts by hand, repair leaks, sags and rotted fascia, install BroGuard stainless micro-mesh guards that stop fir needles, pipe downspouts into underground drainage near slopes and keep Lea Hill homes on a scheduled maintenance program. Licensed (WA L&I #BRTHRBT745J1) and insured, 5.0 stars on Google.

Local Data
Lea Hill gutter facts at a glance
Lea Hill pairs homes from its 1980s and 1990s growth with tall evergreens and steady valley rain, so these local numbers explain why gutters here clog and wear the way they do.
- Homes built before 1980
- 19.2% (ZIP 98092)Another 33.8% were built from 1980 to 1999, when Lea Hill grew fastest, so many gutters here are decades old.
- Average annual rainfall
- 40.1 inThe Kent normals station averages about 153 days a year with measurable rain, three quarters of the total from October through March.
- Main gutter debris
- Douglas fir and hemlock needlesGreen River College’s 260-acre learning forest on Lea Hill is fir and hemlock, and Auburn’s canopy is 48% evergreen.
- Tree rules on slopes
- City approval in critical areasAuburn requires a written request and city approval before trees in critical areas such as steep slopes are pruned or removed.
- Our recommendation
- Clean twice a year, add fine-mesh guardsNeedles fall year-round and slope trees often have to stay, so BroGuard micro-mesh plus fall and spring checks keeps downspouts draining.

Why the Brothers
Why Lea Hill Homeowners Call the Brothers
BroGuard stainless micro-mesh stops Douglas fir and hemlock needles, the debris that slips straight through coarse screens and plastic covers.
Near the slopes above the valley, we pipe downspouts into underground drainage so roof water does not run down the hillside or pool at the foundation.
We replace tired gutters with seamless runs formed on-site, add downspouts where one outlet was carrying too much roof and replace rotted fascia first.

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.”

Twice a year for most Lea Hill homes, once in late fall and again in spring. Houses near the Green River College forest, a wooded greenbelt or the slopes above the valley often need a third cleaning, because fir and hemlock needles fall all year. BroGuard stainless micro-mesh keeps those needles out of the trough, which is the usual fix when cleanings keep piling up.
Sometimes, but check first. The City of Auburn requires a written request and city approval before trees in critical areas, including steep slopes, are pruned or removed, and plenty of Lea Hill lots back onto slopes and greenbelts. Where the trees have to stay, BroGuard stainless micro-mesh keeps their needles out of the gutter so the downspouts keep draining.
If they leak at the corners, sag or spill over in heavy rain, yes. Lea Hill grew fast in the 1990s, and gutters from that era are at the age when seams and hangers give out. We form new seamless runs on-site, move to 6 inch on larger roofs, add downspouts and replace any fascia the old gutters let rot.
Yes. From Lea Hill our crews cover the rest of Auburn, Kent, Lakeland Hills and Lake Tapps, along with Tacoma and the wider South Sound. Estimates are free and written, and most cleanings and repairs are finished in one visit. Call (253) 777-1572 to get on the schedule.
Usually the downspouts are still packed. Fir and hemlock needles slide past the trough and lodge in the elbows, so a gutter can look clean from the ground and still back up in the first heavy rain. We flush and test every downspout by hand, clear the elbows and add outlets where one drop is handling too much roof.
