Why bundle gutters with your new roof
Out here in the Whitman County Palouse, a roof and its gutters are one system, not two separate jobs. When DG Contracting tears off and replaces a roof, the crew is already working along the edge, the fascia board is exposed, and the staging is set. That is the ideal moment to hang gutters straight and true. Add them six months later and you are paying for a second mobilization, a second day of setup, and a second crew visit.
That is the thinking behind our offer: a 15-25 year workmanship warranty with a full roof replacement. On most Rosalia homes, You walk away with a fresh roof and a fresh gutter system that were designed to work together from day one.
Seamless gutter installation
There is no fine-print game here. When you sign on for a roof replacement, we measure your eave line and include the first 150 linear feet of new aluminum gutter as part of the package. That includes:
- Seamless aluminum gutter rolled to length on site, so there are no mid-run seams to leak
- New hangers and proper pitch so water actually moves toward the downspouts instead of pooling
- Color matched to your trim and your new roof
We lay out the full picture in writing during your roof replacement estimate, so there are no surprises.
Soffit and fascia: the part most people forget
Gutters can only hang as straight as the board behind them. In a grain-country town like Rosalia, decades of weather take a toll on fascia, and soft or rotted wood will pull spikes loose no matter how good the new gutter is. Before we hang a single foot, we inspect the fascia along your eaves.
Where boards are sound, we hang directly. Where they are not, we replace the fascia and repair the soffit so your new gutters have something solid to grip. We also make sure the soffit vents stay clear, because that intake airflow is what keeps your attic from cooking the underside of your new roof come summer.
Built for the open wind off Hwy 195
Rosalia sits in open country along Hwy 195, and anyone who has lived here knows what the wind does on a bad day. Gutters tacked up with a handful of spikes do not last in that kind of exposure. We hang on tighter hanger spacing and fasten into solid fascia so the system stays put when the gusts come across the fields.
The same logic applies at the roof edge. Drip edge, starter strip, and gutter all work as a unit to keep wind-driven rain from getting up under your shingles. Doing the roof and gutters in one pass means every one of those layers goes on in the right order.
Winter water, handled right
The Inland Northwest hands Rosalia heavy snow loads and long stretches of freeze-thaw. When gutters are pitched wrong or the fascia is rotten, snowmelt finds the gap, refreezes, and works its way into the eaves. Pairing a new roof with a properly hung gutter system closes that door.
- Correct pitch moves meltwater off the roof before it can refreeze at the edge
- Downspouts placed to drain away from the foundation, not into a frozen puddle at the corner of the house
- Solid fascia and soffit that give water no soft spot to exploit
