The short version

Where the Water Goes After It Leaves the Roof

A roof that sheds water perfectly is still a problem if the water lands next to the foundation. North Texas clay soil moves with moisture, and the fastest way to get a slab issue on a Royse City home is to let a decade of roof runoff pool against one corner of it. Gutters are the cheapest part of the building envelope and they are routinely the worst-specified. Royse City Roofing rolls seamless gutter on site, sizes it to the roof area and pitch it is actually draining, and routes the downspouts to put water where you want it rather than wherever the shortest run happened to land. It gets quoted the same way as everything else here: itemised, in writing, before anyone starts.

Scope of work

What Gutter Work Covers

Linear footage, size, downspouts, guards and removal each sit on their own line, so you can take any of them off.

  • 01

    Seamless gutter rolled on site

    Runs are formed to length at your house, so there are no joints across the length of a run and therefore no seams to open up and drip in five years.

  • 02

    Sizing based on actual roof area and pitch

    Five-inch gutter handles most homes. Large, steep roofs that dump a lot of water quickly need six-inch, and putting five-inch on them is why some houses have gutters that overshoot in every real downpour.

  • 03

    Downspout count and placement calculated, not guessed

    Too few downspouts on a long run means the gutter backs up regardless of how well it is hung. The count comes from the area it drains.

  • 04

    Hidden hangers screwed into the fascia

    Concealed hangers fastened with screws rather than spike-and-ferrule, so the gutter does not sag away from the fascia over time.

  • 05

    Correct pitch to the outlet

    Every run is set with fall toward its outlet so water leaves rather than standing in the trough and breeding mosquitoes.

  • 06

    Downspouts routed away from the slab

    Extensions, elbows and underground routing where needed, so discharge lands well clear of the foundation and not in the flowerbed against the house.

  • 07

    Gutter guards where they earn their place

    Under trees, a decent guard saves a lot of ladder work. On an open roof it is often money better spent elsewhere, and we will say so.

  • 08

    Fascia and drip edge correction

    Where old spike-hung gutter has chewed up the fascia, or the drip edge is missing so water runs behind the gutter, the detail is put right before new gutter goes on.

  • 09

    Kick-out flashing at roof-to-wall terminations

    The small piece of flashing that diverts water into the gutter instead of down the inside of a wall. It is missing on an enormous number of houses and causes very expensive siding and framing damage.

  • 10

    Removal and disposal of the old system

    Old gutter comes down, goes in the trailer and leaves with us, and the ground gets a magnet pass for dropped fasteners.

How it works

Measure, Roll, Hang

1

Measure and specify

We measure the runs, work out the drainage area each one carries, and specify size, downspout count and placement from that. You are shown where the downspouts want to go and told if that conflicts with a gate, a path or a bed, so it can be sorted before the metal is rolled.

2

The written quote

Linear footage, gutter size, downspouts, elbows, guards, fascia correction and removal each sit on their own line. If you want guards on the two runs under the trees and nothing elsewhere, that is a line you can simply take off.

3

Installation day

Runs are formed on site, hung on concealed hangers with proper fall, outlets cut, downspouts fitted and routed, kick-outs installed where they are needed, old material taken away and the ground swept. Most homes are a single day.

Why us for this

Why Have Us Do the Gutters

The sizing is calculated from your roof.

Gutter that overshoots in heavy rain is usually gutter that was never sized for the area it drains. We do the arithmetic rather than defaulting to five-inch on everything.

Kick-out flashing gets installed.

The cheapest piece of metal on the job and the one most commonly left out. It is the difference between water in the gutter and water inside a wall.

Downspouts go where the water should end up.

Routing is decided with you, aimed away from the slab, and priced on the quote rather than improvised at the end of the day.

If your gutters overshoot, sag or dump beside the slab, they were specified wrong rather than worn out. Book the free assessment and we will measure it and price it properly.
