Savannah’s Premier Gutter Installation & Replacement Service

Living in Savannah’s historic districts or newer neighborhoods like Ardsley Park and Parkside means dealing with unique gutter challenges. Our subtropical climate, with intense summer thunderstorms and hurricane season risks, combined with heavy tree coverage from Spanish moss-draped live oaks and magnolias, can put extra strain on your home’s gutter system. Signs you need new gutters include visible sagging or separation from your roofline, water overflow during typical afternoon storms, rust spots, or recurring mildew stains along your foundation. During spring pollen season and fall leaf drops, pay special attention to how your gutters handle the debris load – if you notice standing water or overflowing, it’s time for replacement. Regular inspections are particularly important for homes in areas like Wilmington Island or Isle of Hope, where salt air exposure can accelerate gutter deterioration.

Here in Savannah, aluminum gutters are a popular choice among homeowners, and for good reason. Aluminum is lightweight, rust-resistant, and particularly effective at handling our coastal climate’s salt air, tropical storms, and hurricane conditions. For homes in Savannah’s historic district, copper gutters are another premium option that complements traditional architecture while offering excellent durability. Most local homes use 5″ or 6″ K-Style gutters, which are sized appropriately to handle our heavy seasonal rainfall and manage the abundant pine needles and oak leaves from Savannah’s iconic tree canopy.

Most gutter installations in Savannah are completed within one day. However, installation times can vary based on several local factors, including your home’s architecture (historic properties may require special attention), the complexity of your roof pitch, and coastal weather conditions. During hurricane season or periods of heavy summer thunderstorms typical in coastal Georgia, installations may need to be rescheduled. For homes in historic districts like the Landmark Historic District or Victorian District, extra care and time may be needed to ensure proper installation while preserving architectural integrity.

Our custom gutter system features Sherwin Williams’ Plastilure technology, allowing us to perfectly match your existing gutters or choose complementary colors that enhance your Savannah home’s character. This is especially important for properties in the Landmark Historic District, Victorian homes in Thomas Square, and the classic Colonial architecture found throughout the Coastal Empire. Whether you have a stately Greek Revival mansion near Forsyth Park or a charming bungalow in Ardsley Park, we can maintain your home’s authentic architectural style.

Here in Savannah, 6-inch gutters are typically recommended for most homes. They’re well-suited to handle our region’s unique weather challenges, including summer thunderstorms, tropical storms, and our annual 50 inches of rainfall. These larger gutters are especially important during hurricane season and can better manage the heavy leaf fall from our iconic Live Oaks and Southern Magnolias. For homes with extensive roof areas or those in areas with particularly dense tree coverage, 7-inch gutters might be recommended for additional capacity.

In Savannah’s subtropical climate, gutters require regular maintenance due to year-round debris from live oaks, pines, magnolias, and crepe myrtles. The area’s high humidity, seasonal storms, and coastal weather patterns create perfect conditions for debris accumulation. Homeowners typically need to maintain their gutters several times per year, especially during hurricane season and spring when pollen is heavy. Without proper maintenance, gutters can face issues like water overflow, foundation damage, and deterioration from the region’s unique weather conditions.

Professional gutter systems can be installed on any roof type in Savannah, from steep Victorian homes to modern designs. LeafFilter’s customized gutter solutions are especially valuable for protecting historic district properties during our region’s intense rainfall, tropical storms, and hurricane seasons. Our local experts ensure proper water drainage while managing debris from Savannah’s signature live oaks and magnolias, all while preserving your home’s architectural character.

Gutters protect your home by channeling rainwater away from your foundation, walls, and landscaping. Savannah’s subtropical climate brings distinct challenges, especially during hurricane season from June through November. Our frequent summer thunderstorms and tropical systems bring heavy rainfall, while our abundant live oaks and pine trees contribute to year-round debris. Properly functioning gutters are essential for preventing foundation damage, basement seepage, and soil erosion around your property.

Our gutter installations in Savannah are backed by a lifetime transferable warranty, providing essential protection for homes in our unique coastal climate. This coverage is particularly valuable given Savannah’s frequent summer thunderstorms, hurricane season risks, and year-round challenges from pine straw and oak leaves that can affect gutter performance.

When your gutters need replacement in Savannah, our team handles the complete removal and disposal process. Given our coastal location, many local homeowners deal with specific challenges like salt air corrosion and frequent summer storms that can affect gutter systems. Our installation process takes into account these unique regional factors, particularly for historic district homes that require special attention. We ensure proper removal of existing gutters before installing new ones that are customized to withstand Savannah’s subtropical climate and seasonal weather patterns.
