This house is owned by Jory Olson. We managed to work all this out on-line without having met the client or seeing the house in person.
I took about a 100 photos to share with the Jory through this process over e-mail each night, since he worked such long hours we rarely met. Even when I was still there after 8PM working.

The
Anderson Gutter Replacement
(12-05)
$2,259.75 |
|
This house is owned by Duane Anderson and his wife. These gutters were a satin Forest Green pre-painted aluminum to replace the old steel gutters they had, to match the trim color with Colonial Gray downspouts to match the house paint.
$2,642.50 original bid, but the client asked us not to install the screens or the oversized outlets, so that dropped it down to $2,011.75. After I removed the gutters and examined the fascia boards, the client had us add some custom aluminum fascia metal cover on the back side of the house, adding $248 to the contract, for a total of $2,259.75.

Champion
Gutter Replacement w/No-clog

$2,340.15 |

This house is at owned by a nice couple named Champion. These Leaf Green pre-painted aluminum gutters and downspouts to match their metal roof were to replace the old steel gutters they had with our No-clog advantages we offer plus to pry out all the drip edge roof flashing that was installed badly.
$2,411.75 original bid $188.31 less than the bid. We mounted the gutters lower so the snow loads that will slide off their metal roof will not damage the gutters like they did in the winter of 2004. |

The
Willmes
Gutter
Replacement w/No-clog options
(12/04) $2,125.03 |
|
This is the Willmes house. These
Buckskin Brown pre-painted aluminum gutters were to
replace the old green steel gutters they had. We also
covered the roof trim with the same kind of pre-painted sheet metal used to make the gutters. They
never liked the green trim, as shown in the before picture to
the left, so this was a good solution to change the look of the
house at the same time. Especially since we could not have
painted at that time of the year.
$267.04 less than the bid, even though we did more work than what was contracted to do on the original bid. The customers were quite pleased with the results of our work, exclaiming how we should try to sell a lot more fascia wrap work to other clients. We thought they would make a very good referral client, but they ended up foiling a sale of a larger job in their area, stating how we were .late by a week getting started. Go figure? |

Gutter Replacement
w/No-clog options Sub-contracted for JB Enterprises
(5/04) $3,774.48 |
|
This house shown in the background and here in these pictures was a job we did as a subcontractor for JB Enterprises, whom we have worked for since 1995. This project got all the No-clog advantages we offer for aluminum gutters. We installed 5/4"x 6" primed spruce fascia boards, with a custom pre-painted aluminum wrap over the wood, made from the same metal we made these gutters out of. The gutters have our exclusive mitered end-capping we do for some clients upon request it. Standard push-on end-caps were use where the gutter is butted up against the wall.
$3,988.26 original bid $213.78 less than the bid.

The Lesh
Gutter Replacement

This house was owned by David Lesh, but he sold it and
we also replaced the gutters on his new house: http://dmrgutters.com/cg/Lesh.htm On the left side of the house the rain is funneled down into the roof valley that ends in a point. We had to get creative to make a gutter to catch the rushing water coming off this corner of the house, and make it look good as well (shown below). It was tricky, but the customer was quite pleased. |

| This house had an interesting passage into the door between the garage and house (shown below). We assembled the 'U' shape in my workshop, delivered it, and fit it into place. It is in some regards a treat to be challenged and do something different from time to time. |

| This was an interesting project. Most of the house is covered with vinyl siding, but because her paint was severely flaking off on the wood still exposed, I sold her on covering the soffit with this same gray painted aluminum sheet metal I use to form gutters with. It would cost a lot to strip the paint down smooth to re-paint it. | |

Gaboury Gutter Replacement w/No-clog options |

This is the mitered corner work we do, using a continuous gutter run-out. You will not see any of those large nail heads show on any of our gutters, since we have not used nail spikes in about 10 years now. I used them once, and realized: there has to be a better way. I am sure you have seen those big nail spikes pull loose on gutters. We do not believe in such planned obsolescence. |

The house in the back ground and to the right is an office building at 23rd E. Burnside. I re-roofed it, as well as replaced the gutters. I installed a Pabco 40 year roofing with all aluminum flashing. The flat roof in front of the porch was prone to leaking, so I built the roof up around the porch columns, to have a 6/12 pitch. I did this job back in 1996. They since painted the building blue, with a yellow and red trim.

These gutters were the bronze color. Here is a good example of some special corner mitering and custom work we do; like the curved gutter over the entry way. It is on the N E corner of 30th N. E. Thompson. I managed to sell 3 gutter jobs in this neighborhood, all within one block of each other, because of my high quality and attention to detail.

On this Home-Owner wanted me to replace the 1/4 round gutter with the same type, in order to retain the classic look of the house. I managed to point out that the only reason they had used that 1/4 round type of gutter was because they had not developed the K-5 type of gutter machine yet. This house, like many of it's era, has wood moldings at the roofs edge that are the same shape and size of the K-5 gutter, as clearly shown in the picture at the top. That is why they developed the K-5 gutter. They were very pleased with the final out come.  This
photo clearly shows the shape of the gutters our machine produces,
along with the matching wood molding that was put on the house when
it was first built. Our gutter machine forms the gutters from a 12" wide flat stock coils that we
get in big 400lb rolls. This
is a Mitered End Cap option. It does not seal the end of the
gutter better than a standard end-cap piece, but does look a lot nicer. As far as we know,
DMR is the only contractor in the North West to offers this
option. This option
costs less than $30.00 more per endcap. It is
primarily a cosmetic feature. |

We do a lot of gutters in white, simply because that is what most home owners ask for. Part of that is because for many years most all installers have charged much more for any other colors, or they may not even offer any other colors than white and dark brown, that is painted on the other side of the coil of sheet metal they buy. This way all they have to do is rotate the spool. We are one of the only contractors that does not charge extra for these special colors. We feel it should simply be a matter of customer service. We would rather that you are pleased with the final results.

Here is a house at 3425 N. E. 32 Pl. in Portland Oregon where we were called out in 1995 to help with their problems of the gutters leaking inside the walls of their house. I was puzzled as to how this could be, until I saw it for my own eyes. They had built a custom gutter right onto of the outside wall. It was steel fitted into a channel and each 10 foot section was soldered together. By the time I got there, it already had 3 layers of this cheap steel laid in this channel and all three gutter layers had rusted through. I advised them to have me mount the new aluminum gutters on the outside of the stucco covered wall. Then I would cover over the old gutter with a super wide heavy gauge red painted aluminum dripedge flashing.
This worked so well and they were so pleased that a few years later they called me back to replace the roof. I then had a chance to do a complete rear off, cover the roof with plywood to cover the old gutter, and then re-roof it. The lump you see below to the left of the pictures was a build up I did over a flat section of roof that was covered with several layers of steel. I wanted to give that section more of a pitch, so I had to get creative to blend it in like this. These photos show the galvanized screens we use to install before we found a source for the stronger black screens we now use. |
 This
is an example of special gutter angles that other installers do not know how
to do. We were replacing just one
of those poor attempts made by one contractor who thought they could
do it. There was no good place for a downspout, so if your
look closely, you will see that I mitered an inside 45 degree corner
on the left side to drop the water in the near-by gutter. |
 Here
is a house I did in Lake Oswego. This one was a unique
challenge. The rafter tails extended under the gutter. It
is impossible to level the gutters, let alone install them with a grade
toward the outlet. At least not without using a site level and
carefully trimming each rafter to notch out to the right
specifications. All this while retaining the classic look of the house.
I even had to
rebuild a few of the rafter tails due to the dry rot they suffered,
being so exposed to the weather. I usually recommend to have all
the rafter tails chopped off flush. The way we install gutters, there is
no need for the extra support underneath them. |
