Gutter Installation, Cleaning & Repair in Athens, GA

Yes. Many houses in Cobbham, Boulevard and Five Points have deep eaves, porch roofs and trim that is a century old or more. We check the fascia first, replace rotted boards where needed and form seamless runs on site to fit the exact lengths. Copper is a popular choice on these homes. If your house sits in a designated historic district, check any local review requirements before work starts.

On the right house, often yes. Copper suits older and high-end Athens homes, does not rust and weathers to a dark brown and then green over the years. It costs more than aluminum, so it makes most sense where looks matter, such as a front elevation in Cobbham or Boulevard. We form copper on site and can quote it next to aluminum so you can compare.

Water is reaching the wood. A clogged gutter overflows toward the house, a gap at the back lets rain run down the board, or a loose run pulls away and drips. Older Athens homes with original wood trim feel this most during the wet winter months. We replace the soft fascia, then hang the new gutter tight to sound wood so water goes where it should.

Use a fine stainless micro-mesh guard. Loblolly needles slip through coarse screens and foam inserts, then collect in the outlet until the gutter overflows. BroGuard’s openings are small enough to keep needles, oak leaves and sweetgum balls on top, where most of them blow or wash off. A house deep under the pines may still want a quick brush of the guard surface once or twice a year.
