Fall Leaf Drop · Hudson Valley

Before the first hard freeze

We get you a free written estimate, then clear the troughs, flush every downspout and tighten loose seams before the Hudson Valley freezes.

Leaf season is here in the Hudson Valley. Maple, oak and sycamore leaves come down fast from mid October into November. Anything left in the trough freezes in place and holds meltwater against the roof edge all winter. One visit before the first hard freeze keeps the whole system draining.

“Great company! Came quickly to look at my home and gave me an estimate the same day. It provided a detailed description and pictures of the work needed with a fair price. We booked it and it was done in 2 weeks. The 2 installers were very professional and friendly. Job completed in one hour! I was provided with before and after pictures the same day. Will definitely recommend”

“From start to finish, I was quite happy with The Brothers That Just Do Gutters. Mike , the General Manager, did an estimate, and he listened to all of my concerns. Nick, Brandon and Zach were the team that did the installation. I was quite pleased with their work. I would highly recommend this company.”

Angela Sterbenz★★★★★Google

“I had a very good experience with The Brothers That Just Do Gutters. There were different options, and being shown which one might be right for my particular situation was clear. On installation day the guys were on time, genial, fast and efficient, and seemed undaunted at great heights. I would most certainly use Brothers Gutters again.”

John Heath Stewart★★★★★Google

“The job was scheduled between 1-4. They arrived at 1. Introduced themselves and shook my hand. Explained what they were going to do. Promptly did their work and told me what they had done also told me I would be getting receipt on line. Wonderful company great customer service. Would highly recommend them. Thanks for your professionalism.”

Patty Kell★★★★★Google

“From Bret, who planned the job, to Nick and Ryan, who did the installation, we could not be more pleased. Bret explained our options very clearly. Nick and Ryan showed up on time, worked efficiently, were professional and personable. We highly recommend the Brother Gutters.”

Jack Fenton★★★★★Google

“The lads came when they said they’d come, did what they said they’d do (including thorough cleanup), and charged what they said they’d charge (an eminently reasonable amount). More firms should try this. A very satisfactory experience; give them a try.”

Jim Kent★★★★★Google

“Very happy with my new gutters. Every employee that I worked with was kind and professional. Mike was able to get to do the estimate within days of me calling. Less than a week, I was able to have gutters replaced. Brandon and Nick, who were so nice, were here first thing in the morning and 2 hours later I had very nice looking new gutters and there was no mess of any kind.”

Christine Macphail★★★★★Google

“Their advice about what to do with the gutters on the front of our long house was much appreciated. The gutters have lasted through those intense rainfalls, eliminating the floods into our garages. I wish that I had had them do the back gutters before. Now we won’t be worrying about the gushing water down the back of our roof!”

Andi Bartczak★★★★★Google

“They did an amazing job replacing our gutters and adding the leaf guards. They were professional, neat and very careful around all my plants. I highly recommend Brothers! A great company all around.”

What Hudson Valley weather does to a roofline.

Pick a season and fly the roofline with us. About 42 inches of rain and melted snow a year lands on Poughkeepsie, spread across all four seasons, from fall leaf drop to winter snow and summer thunderstorms. This is what your gutters are up against, and what changes when the debris cannot get in.

⚠Leaves left in the trough in November freeze in place and stay there until spring.
✓The mesh keeps leaves on top, so fall rain runs straight through.
⚠A packed gutter cannot drain meltwater, so it backs up at the roof edge.
✓A clear trough gives meltwater somewhere to go.
⚠Seeds and catkins are small enough to slip past a screen and dense enough to seal an outlet.
✓Seeds and catkins wash off the mesh instead of collecting in the trough.
⚠Summer is the wettest season here, often in short, heavy thunderstorms that a half-full trough cannot handle.
✓A thunderstorm is the worst time to find out your gutters are plugged. This is the fix.

Water damage in the Hudson Valley

The gutter is the most costly part of your home that almost no one checks

Gutters are not decoration. They are the drainage system that decides whether the roughly 42 inches of rain and melted snow a normal year brings to the Hudson Valley leaves your roof and goes to the street, or runs down your siding and sits against your foundation. When a gutter stops moving water, the damage does not announce itself. It starts behind the fascia, under the first course of siding, and in the soil at the corner of the house.

Following the water down the wall

Tap a point on this Hudson Valley wall cutaway.

1 2 3 4

01

Fascia and soffit

the fascia board carrying the gutter through Hudson Valley snow

When a trough packs with maple and oak leaves, water pools behind it against the fascia. That fascia is wood, usually painted only on its face, and it is all that keeps the gutter fastened to your house.

The tell. Bubbling paint just below the gutter, or one end of the gutter starting to drop away from the roofline.

Fascia and soffit

02

Siding and paint

the siding below the overflow

Water spilling over a gutter does not drop clear. It runs down the face of the wall, slips behind the siding where the boards overlap, and lingers until the wood swells and the paint lets go.

The tell. One streak of siding under a single gutter run that looks cleaner or darker than the rest.

Siding and paint

03

Foundation and crawlspace

the soil beside a Hudson Valley foundation

The whole point of a downspout is to move water away from your foundation. If the gutter feeding it is clogged, the water drops at the foot of the wall, and soaked Hudson Valley soil shifts, especially through freeze and thaw.

The tell. Washed-out soil under the eaves, a downspout with nothing coming out during a storm, or a damp basement corner.

Foundation and crawlspace

04

Behind finished walls

the inside face of that Hudson Valley wall

When you finally see water on an inside wall, it has typically been getting in for two or three seasons already. That is when a gutter repair turns into drywall and framing work.

The tell. A stale smell in one room, or a water stain that returns no matter how often you repaint it.

Usually covered

A pipe that splits during a January cold snap. A nor’easter that rips a gutter off. Sudden, accidental and with a clear date.

Usually not covered

A gutter dumping water against one corner of your foundation for three winters straight. Insurers call that gradual damage or neglected maintenance, and they do not pay for gradual.

What actually prevents it

How often should gutters be cleaned in the Hudson Valley?

For most Hudson Valley homes, twice a year: once after the fall leaf drop and before the first hard freeze, and once in late spring after the seeds and catkins come down. Homes under heavy maple or oak canopy can need more. The fall visit matters most, because leaves left in the trough freeze in place and stay there until spring.

Do guards really stop Hudson Valley water damage?

Guards do not stop water. They stop the debris that stops water. BroGuard uses stainless micro-mesh, sized for maple and oak leaves, seeds and pine needles, which keeps the trough clear so the system can do the job it was sized for. That is what protects the fascia, the siding and the foundation.

Repair my aging Hudson Valley gutters or replace them outright?

When runs sag, split at the seams or are too small for the roof above them, a repair only gets you through one more season. We form seamless gutters right off our truck in your driveway, cut to the full length of each roof edge, so no mid-run joints are left to fail. You will get a straight answer on which one fits your home.

How can I tell my gutters are failing after a Hudson Valley winter?

Check for streaks running down the fascia, water lines on the siding below a seam, soil washed out under the eaves, and a downspout that stays dry while it rains. Any one of these tells you water is escaping the system where it should not.

What We Do Best

We Know Rain Gutters

A gutter system has to account for the roofline, pitch, overhang, fascia and valleys of your home. Our Solutionists look at all of it on site, from older river-town colonials to newer split levels, and recommend the seamless installation or replacement that fits. Every system is built for your house with current equipment and quality materials.
