Signs you need a new gutter system or preventative gutter guards
Five Signs Your Gutters Need Attention — Sagging gutters: excessive weight from debris signals gutter cleaning or replacement. Overflow during rain: water spilling over edges indicates clogs or undersized gutters. Visible rust or corrosion: aluminum gutters should last 25+ years; rust spots mean repair or replacement time. Foundation cracks: water pooling near your home’s base causes foundation damage — a sign your gutters are failing. Granules in gutters: shingle granules accumulating in gutters indicate your roof is aging and gutters need increased maintenance (free gutter cleaning).

Seamless Aluminum Gutter Installation
Why They’re the Best Choice: Our custom-fitted seamless aluminum gutters are measured and fabricated on-site to fit your exact roofline. Unlike sectional gutters, seamless systems have no joints where debris accumulates and leaks develop. Available in 5″ (standard) or 6″ (high-capacity) profiles to match your home’s roof pitch and climate. We offer premium colors and finishes that enhance curb appeal while protecting your home. With proper maintenance and gutter guards, aluminum gutters typically last 25-30 years — and they’re fully backed by our Owens Corning warranty.
Gutter Guard Installation
Reduce Maintenance, Increase Protection: Gutter guards are mesh or solid protective covers installed over your gutters to block leaves, twigs, and debris while allowing water to flow freely. They reduce gutter cleaning frequency from 2-4 times per year to just once annually. Popular options include mesh guards, solid-top guards, and reverse-curve guards — each with pros and cons. Edwards & Sons can help you choose the right gutter guard type for your climate and home. Installation takes just one day, and guards are compatible with both existing gutters and new seamless aluminum systems. Gutter guards are especially valuable if you have trees overhead, live in a heavy rainfall area, or want to minimize climbing a ladder.

Our gutter cleaning process includes: Complete gutter system flush and debris removal. Downspout cleaning and unclogging. Minor repairs and spot inspection. We can identify problems early — sagging sections, rust spots, or areas where gutter guards would help.
Why hire a pro instead of DIY? Professional crews have proper safety equipment and insurance. We work fast — most homes cleaned in 2-3 hours. We catch problems before they become expensive repairs. Annual cleaning extends your gutter system’s lifespan.

Gutter Guards vs. Regular Gutters — Comparison & Recommendations
Should you invest in gutter guards? Here’s how guards compare to standard gutters:
REGULAR (UNGUARDED) GUTTERS:
- Pros: Lower initial cost, proven durability (aluminum lasts 25-30 years), flexible design
- Cons: Require frequent cleaning (2-4 times per year), debris accumulation clogs downspouts, higher maintenance costs long-term
- Best for: Homes with clear roofs and minimal trees, budget-conscious homeowners willing to maintain
GUTTER GUARDS:
- Pros: Reduce cleaning frequency to 1x annually, lower maintenance cost over time, prevent pest entry, cleaner appearance, extended gutter lifespan
- Cons: Higher upfront cost, some types require periodic professional cleaning, initial installation adds expense
- Best for: Homes with many trees, high pollen areas, homeowners with mobility issues, property managers, anyone wanting to avoid ladders
The math: Gutter guards cost more upfront but save $500-$1,000+ annually in professional cleaning costs. For most homes, guards pay for themselves within 3-5 years.
Edwards & Sons recommendation: If you have mature trees overhead or your home is in a high-pollen zone, guards are worth the investment. We can install guards on new gutters or retrofit existing gutters. Free inspection: we’ll assess your specific situation and provide a no-obligation quote.
How Much Does Gutter Installation Cost in St. Louis?
Gutter installation cost varies based on several factors. Here’s what affects your price:
SIZE OF YOUR HOME: Linear footage is the primary driver. A 1,500 sq ft home typically needs 150-200 feet of gutters. Larger homes cost more.
GUTTER TYPE: Seamless aluminum (our standard) costs more per foot than sectional but offers superior quality and longevity. Premium colors or specialty materials add cost.
GUTTER SIZE: 5-inch standard gutters are less expensive than 6-inch high-capacity gutters. High-capacity gutters are recommended for steep roofs or high-rainfall areas.
GUTTER GUARDS: Adding guards increases your total project cost, but reduces long-term maintenance expenses.
ROOF COMPLEXITY: Homes with multiple roof angles, valleys, or dormers require more labor and custom fabrication.
TYPICAL COST RANGE: Most St. Louis area homes pay $1,500-$4,000 for a complete seamless gutter system with downspouts. Homes with gutter guards can expect $2,500-$5,500 total.
FINANCING AVAILABLE: Edwards & Sons offers financing through Service Finance Company — approved in minutes, with terms up to 60 months. No money down available.
FREE ESTIMATE: The only way to know your exact cost is a free on-site inspection. We measure your home, discuss options (materials, colors, guards), and provide a detailed written estimate within 24 hours. No obligation, no pressure.
Frequently Asked Questions About Gutter Installation & Repair
Q: How long does gutter installation take?
A: Most single-story homes can have seamless gutters installed in 1-2 days. Two-story homes typically take 2-3 days. Our crews work efficiently and clean up after themselves.
Q: How often should I clean my gutters?
A: Homes with trees overhead should clean gutters 3-4 times per year (spring, summer, fall, and before winter). Homes with few trees can do once or twice annually. Gutter guards reduce this to once per year or less.
Q: Do you offer gutter repairs, or just replacement?
A: Both. Small repairs (patching holes, re-sealing seams, fixing sagging sections) can extend your gutters 5-10 more years. When repair costs approach 50% of replacement cost, full replacement makes more financial sense. We’ll recommend the best option based on your gutter’s age and condition.
Q: What’s included in gutter installation?
A: Seamless fabrication and on-site installation, downspouts, drainage extensions (to move water 4+ feet from your foundation), proper slope adjustment for flow, and a final walkthrough inspection. Gutters are installed with hidden hangers (no visible fasteners).
Q: What are your gutters made of?
A: We install premium aluminum seamless gutters in 5″ or 6″ profiles. Aluminum resists rust, is lightweight, fully recyclable, and typically lasts 25-30 years. We back all installations with an Owens Corning warranty.
Q: Do gutter guards really work?
A: Yes, but the type matters. Mesh guards work well for most climates. Solid-top and reverse-curve guards are better for heavy leaf areas. No guard system is 100% maintenance-free, but all significantly reduce debris accumulation and cleaning frequency.
Q: How do I know if my gutters are properly sloped?
A: Water should flow toward downspouts without pooling. If you see standing water after rain, or if water is flowing away from downspouts, your gutters need adjustment. Edwards & Sons can re-slope your existing gutters or install new ones with correct slope.
Q: Do you service gutters that were installed by another company?
A: Yes. We repair and maintain all gutter types and brands. Bring in your gutters for a free inspection.
