The houses in Ladue
Mostly large single-family houses, many with complicated roofs of slate, tile or heavy shingle, plus copper accents on some. Long runs and multiple valleys are the norm, and details like half-round or copper often come up.
Who to ask about permits
Ladue is its own city, so ask at city hall about permits and any design rules before work starts.
Ground and where the water goes
Bigger lots give room to carry water well away from the house, which makes buried lines common. Check where those lines end and how they're cleaned.
What to look at first in Ladue
- Check valleys that send most of a big roof into one corner, and ask whether 6-inch or larger downspouts would help.
- Have older buried drain lines checked, because they often silt up unseen.
- Ask for someone comfortable working around slate, tile and copper.
- Trim limbs that overhang the eave before paying for guards.
What to ask the contractor
- Will you measure at the house and put it in writing?Ask for footage, gutter size, metal thickness, color, hanger type and spacing, downspout count and size, removal, and any trim repair as separate lines. Ask if the estimate is free.
- How will you fix to my brick or trim?Get the method in plain words, including what happens to soft brick and rotten fascia.
- Where will each downspout discharge?Walk it together. Ask what happens to any old pipe going into the ground.
- Who checks permit and historic rules?Ask who checks and who applies, before you sign.

Installation in Ladue: questions
Who installs gutters in Ladue?
Independent local contractors. We pass your request on, and a contractor who can take the job contacts you directly. We don't install anything ourselves, and contractors may pay us a referral fee.
How do I get a price for new gutters in Ladue?
Ask for a measurement at the house and a written, itemized quote. Published averages can't see your walls, corners or trim. This guide explains what each line on a quote should say.
What size gutter suits a house in Ladue?
It depends on roof area and pitch, not on the neighborhood. Many smaller roofs manage with 5-inch K-style, and large or steep sections often need 6-inch with bigger downspouts. Ask the contractor to explain the choice for your roof.
