West York Gutters Repaired after Winter Storm Damage

I may not have been this customer's first call, but after my estimate he saw no need to call anyone else.

Pictured below are different shots of the damage done to the gutters this winter to a home in West York.  The main cause of the damage was fallen tree limbs.  Most of you will remember the ice storms in January and early February.







All the other quotes that he received were for entire gutter replacement.  Why would you do that when they are not seamless gutters anyway?  We will come back in a few weeks (had to get materials specific to the job and waiting for the next thaw) and replace a section, add a new end cap, and seal seams.  While we are there for the repairs, we will clean the gutters more thoroughly.  I only grabbed the handful  by the downspout as it was below freezing the day I went to take pictures and figure the estimate.  As you can see in a few of the pictures, there are pine needles making it under the gutter covers- but that's a whole other blog.  

Again, my motto for this season with all the winter damage- why replace when you can repair?  If I can't repair, I will let you know.  However, if the only call you make is to a gutter installer, I would find it highly unlikely that they would say "you know you could really just get a section repaired."
After calling Mr. Green Gutter Cleaning, this West York homeowner found he could get the problem solved for hundreds rather than thousands.
