Why it matters here

The clean that matters most in Shaw 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

Few neighborhoods sit closer to so much canopy, with the Garden on one side and Tower Grove Park on the other. Expect heavy leaf drop, spring seeds and twigs, so ask a contractor how they'd keep outlets clear.

Ground and where the water goes

Lots are compact and mostly level, and old stone or brick foundations are common. Porches and front steps collect water from short downspouts, and that water refreezes on the steps on a cold night.

What to look at first in Shaw

  • Look at porch roof gutters as well as the main eave, since they fill and overflow first.
  • Check for peeling paint on cornices below corners, which can signal a leak behind.
  • Ask a historic-district question before you choose a gutter color or profile.
  • Plan a late-autumn cleaning after the last of the park's leaves come down.

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.
