Upgraded Drainage and Raindrop Retrofit in Midway

Challenge

This beautiful Midway property was suffering from a range of gutter-related issues that were beginning to impact the home’s structural integrity. Most of the gutters were completely clogged with leaves and sludge, preventing proper water flow. One downspout had disconnected at the base, which was contributing to water pooling and corner damage. Additionally, improper drainage was starting to affect the soffit, with visible signs of water intrusion. A severely bent gutter hanger was compromising support, and overall, the system was in need of immediate attention to prevent further damage.

Solution

During our visit, we performed a comprehensive cleaning of the entire gutter system, removing built-up debris and sludge. We reconnected the disconnected downspout during the estimate process, immediately improving water flow. To enhance drainage and durability:

• We installed new wedges for added support

• Integrated new 3x4 wide-mouth outlets to improve flow capacity

• Retrofitted the system with Raindrop gutter protection

• Matched new downspout additions to the existing musket brown for a seamless look

• Replaced the bent hanger with a sturdier, longer-lasting support bracket

These upgrades not only improved the gutter system’s functionality but also blended beautifully with the home’s existing design. However, given the heavy debris and location-specific challenges, a Gutter Shutter system would have offered a clog-free, maintenance-free, and lifetime-guaranteed solution—eliminating the need for future gutter cleaning and protecting the soffit and structure from long-term water damage.
