Why it matters here

The clean that matters most in Lafayette Square is the last one before freezing weather, because a clogged outlet in December turns into a block of ice. Spring matters too, with the wettest months ahead. Independent contractors do the work; we only pass on your request.

Trees and what lands in the gutter

Lafayette Park's mature trees and the street trees around it drop leaves and seeds onto high roofs where nobody sees the gutter fill. Blocks closest to the park tend to catch more of it.

Ground and where the water goes

Townhouses sit on narrow lots with brick walks and small gardens. Downspouts near front steps and walks freeze into slick patches in winter, so check the winter route too. Rear courtyards can pond if outlets are poorly placed.

What to look at first in Lafayette Square

  • Before you pick a gutter, ask the Cultural Resources Office what the district's standards say about the profile and color.
  • Have the cornice checked for a built-in gutter and for paint failure below any corner.
  • Ask how a contractor will reach a tall wall without damaging garden walls or ironwork.
  • Check downspouts at the front steps for ice in winter.

What to ask the contractor

  1. What's included?Troughs, downspouts, flush, debris removal. Get it in writing, even in a text.
  2. How do you price it?Ask for a fixed figure after they've seen the house, and what would change it.
  3. Will you show me what you find?Ask for photos of the troughs and of any damage. Check the claim before paying for added repairs.
  4. Are you insured for ladder work?It's your house under that ladder. Ask for the certificate.
