Gutter Installation Photo Album: South Portland, ME Home Gets a Refresh with Gutter Shutter
For this South Portland, ME, homeowner, their old gutter just wasn’t cutting it anymore. Clogging and growing mildew, the homeowner wanted to take care of the issue and protect their home from expensive repairs caused by bad gutters. Worried about soil erosion and damage to their homes roof or foundation, they called Gutter Shutter by TC Hafford Basement Systems for a free estimate. System Design Specialist Jeff Shuhmacher met with the homeowner and worked with them to choose a Gutter Shutter system that would fit their needs and protect their home. Excited about the benefits of Gutter Shutters clog-free design, the homeowner scheduled an appointment for installation.
First the old gutters were removed from the home, and instead of the homeowner having to worry about disposing of the old gutter, TC Hafford takes on the job of getting rid of them, so the finished job site is left clean. Gutter Shutter features a durable, six-inch aluminum construction that is formed and cut on site, resulting in a seamless gutter that is cut perfectly to the sections of the home that it is attached to. Gutter Shutter comes in many different colors, allowing the homeowner to pick the best match for their home. Once the new gutter is installed, the shutter can be attached to the top. The unique shutter design allows water to easily flow into the gutter without allowing in any debris such as leaves, pine needles, or even small critters. No debris means no clogs, and with Gutter Shutters larger size, more water is able to flow through the gutter, even during the winter months, preventing water from trickling over or icicles forming that could become dangerous. With Gutter Shutter done being installed, the homeowner is happier knowing that their home is more protected than before and they no longer have to worry about their old gutters causing them costly repairs to their home and landscape.
