Wynn - weathered bronze colored gutter replacement w/no-clog outlets, Leaf-catchers, drip edge flashing, and fascia metal: $4,819.67 (1/09)
6311 Palomino Way, West Linn, Oregon

Eleanor Wynn had found my web site and contacted me back on 9/07 wanting a bid for copper gutters for an added feng shui, but found the cost to be a bit over her budget, so 9 months later she place her 1/3 deposit to secure her spot on my schedule for an aluminum gutter replacement with Weathered Bronze color for an artificial aged copper look.

I needed to installed an extra wide drip-edge flashing I made from 6" wide aluminum strips. To cover the ugly rafter tails I made some 10' long custom fascia metal section with the same painted aluminum as the gutters to look like 2x6 boards.

Since she has such a rough split cedar shake roof she opted to go without the leaf screens at this time, but she did want the double outlets on each of the 4 corners, so the debris does not have to go around the corners, and for a good 6 times the outlets volume from what she had originally. She may still have me install a different type of screen later on made by the the same company; that slips in under the wood shakes in stead of the hinged type.

Patricia Pulliam - weathered bronze colored gutters replacement w/no-clog options, drip edge flashing, roof treatment, and copper ridge cap: $5,718.38 (1/09)
4043 S. W. 48th Pl., Forest Grove, Oregon

I had already replaced gutters for her Son; Andrew Pulliam back on 4/07, so this was a fairly simple sale. She had contacted me on 8/9/08 to get a bid for aluminum gutters and a set of the copper ridge caps I make for moss control on her roof. I had a promise start date of 1/22/09, and I managed to get it completed by January 7th, ahead of schedule.

final adjusted cost was $265.62 less than the original bid

Adams - fascia reconstruction, jacked up the porch on the left side, Drip edge flashing, heritage cream colored gutters w/no-clog options and mitered endcaps: $6,103.42 (11/08)
1724 Ash St., Forest Grove, Oregon

This house is owned by Park Adams and his wife.  I had replaced the gutters on their Daughter's house 10 months earlier, so this was an easy sell. This job had a few complications to deal with before I could mount the new gutters. house was originally built without the benefit of gutters. They had trimmed off the roof edge with this wood crown molding that these style gutters were patterned after to replace this molding. last set of steel gutters were mounted by flimsy straps that were nailed right on top of the roofing, so the gutters were just loosely dangling. You could not see this horizontal wood molding anyway.

I had to mount some 2x2 boards just under the molding you see here, so I could mount a sturdy fascia board over this. In stead of painting it I covered this new wood with custom bent fascia metal that was made with the same pre-painted aluminum the gutters were made of in a Heritage Cream color to match their trim paint. It took me over 2 weeks to complete diving over 100 miles each day. I also managed to fit in his next door neighbors White front gutters while there.

final adjusted cost was $253.40 less than the original bid, so it was still less even with the extra work.
