How Getting Gutter Guards Works in Canton, OH

What are the three things this service is known for?

The owner inspects every job himself. Photos of what he finds are in your hands that same day. And you get one written price that is good for a year. Everything below is how those three promises play out on a Canton house.

Step 1: How do you start?

Call the number on this page at any hour, or use the online quote request. The phone is answered by Guttrz in North Canton. If you reach us online, we text or call back within the hour. Have your address ready and, if you know it, whether the house is one story or two.

Step 2: What happens at the inspection?

The owner comes to the house. He does not send a salesperson. He measures every gutter run, checks the size of the gutters, presses on the fascia for soft wood, looks at how each run is hung and whether it slopes toward its downspout, and tests that the downspouts drain. He also notes the trees over the roof and the valleys that carry the most water. The check takes about 20 minutes on most houses and is free.

Step 3: What is in the photo report?

Pictures of what he found, sent the same day. Expect photos of the gutter interior, any loose spikes or sagging runs, leaking corners, soft fascia and the downspout outlets. The point is that you see what the price is based on. You do not have to take anyone's word about the state of a gutter you cannot see from the ground.

Step 4: How does the written price work?

You receive one price in writing, built on the measured footage at a per-foot rate. Corners, the cleaning and the small fixes are inside it. Anything bigger, such as rehanging a run, is listed separately so you can say yes or no to it. The price is good for a year. There is no discount for signing on the spot and no penalty for waiting. The agreement carries the Ohio notice of your three-business-day right to cancel. When you are ready, half down puts you on the schedule and the balance is due when the job is complete.

Step 5: What happens on install day?

The gutters are cleaned out and the downspouts flushed. Loose or sagging runs get hidden hangers. The guards are fastened to the fascia and the gutter lip, every corner is mitered, and the finished job is water tested. Most houses take one day, and often half of one. You do not need to be home as long as every side of the house can be reached. The installation page covers each step in detail.

Step 6: What do you get afterward?

Photos of the finished work the same day, the manufacturer's warranty document, and a number that is answered around the clock if something does not look right. If you report a problem with the install, it is put right inside 30 days and you are not billed. The two warranties take over from there.

What should you do before the visit?

• Unlock any gate so all sides of the house can be reached.
• Move cars from under gutter runs if you can.
• Point out any spot where water spills over or runs behind the gutter.
• Mention past work: new roof, replaced fascia, older screens still in the gutters.

If your house is from the 1920s through the 1940s, the page on gutter guards for older homes explains what gets extra attention.
