Gutter Installation, Cleaning & Repair in Titlow, WA

Mostly where the water ends up. On a sloped lot, an overflowing gutter on the uphill side runs back toward the foundation, and on the downhill side it can wash out beds and soil. We pitch each run toward an outlet that can handle it, extend downspouts past the slope or tie them into a drain line, and check that the water leaves the property the way the city expects.

Yes. Tacoma’s stormwater manual allows downspout dispersion with limits, and it keeps splash blocks and dispersion trenches back from slopes of 15 percent or more. Near the Narrows bluffs that matters, because wet soil on steep ground is a landslide risk. We set downspouts to drain where the city’s rules allow and tell you when a drain line or a different route makes more sense.

Two cleanings a year handles most homes, one after the maples drop in fall and one in late winter or spring. Homes that back onto the park’s woods or sit under tall firs often need a third visit. Tacoma Narrows Airport averages about 42 inches of rain a year, with November the wettest month, so a clogged outlet shows up fast. Our maintenance program books those visits for you.

Usually, yes. Fir needles slip through coarse screens, and madrones drop bark and leaves through much of the year. BroGuard’s fine stainless mesh keeps that debris on top, where wind and rain move most of it off, while water passes through. If your roof only sees light debris, a cleaning schedule may be enough, and we will tell you so.

Yes. Besides Titlow and Day Island, we work across the West Slope, Tacoma’s West End, University Place and Fircrest. Call (253) 777-1572 or book online and our local crew will set up a free written estimate.
