DMR's Premium Copper & Aluminum Gutter Work

There is a small section of a 20oz copper gutters we contracted to replace on the opposite corner of this house for Mr. Masood. It is in a high security gated area, so you would not be able to get close enough to get a look at the back gutter work we did unless you are strolling the golf coarse behind it. These copper gutters were to replace the steel concave fascia gutters that had clogged even though they have no tall trees near the house. He had us replace just that back corner of the house that was giving them the most grief for now, and maybe do the whole house later.

He did not want us to install leaf screens over the gutters, since there are no trees near the house, even though he would not benefit from our no-clog warranty. On my own initiative I decided make some super sized outlets in them, since his gutters are so hard to access. The old gutter outlets were only 1.5" x 2.5", and these new gutter outlets are 3.25" x 10", which is 867% larger.

I later found out that his maintenance teams had never cleaned the gutters and all the old gutters along the back side were completely clogged. The area I worked on just happened to be the lowest area, so that is where the overflow occurred.

This portion of 80' of gutter and 47' of downspouts with a white painted aluminum fascia cover cost $2,645.31. There was a good deal of cost for hard installation. As you will see below; our 32' ladder was extended further than it should have been and it still was not long enough for a good position.

The whole house has over 1,000' of gutters plus the length of all the downspouts. It would have cost another $24k to finish the gutters, but our work relation eroded through impossible communication issues working through their staff workers, so they will need to find another contractor to finish this house. It would have been quite a feather in our cap, but working on the dormer gutters would have proven to be very challenging to say the least, so it was probably for the best.
