Gutters for Kingston’s stone houses and river streets

Kingston began as a Dutch settlement in 1652, and in 1658 Peter Stuyvesant ordered a stockade built around it. That uptown grid is now the Stockade District, where the corner of John and Crown Streets has pre-Revolutionary stone houses on all four corners. In 1777 Kingston became the first capital of New York State, and British troops burned it that October. Down the hill, the Rondout grew into a busy port after the Delaware and Hudson Canal opened in 1828, and the villages of Kingston and Rondout merged into one city in 1872. Midtown filled in between them, and the Victorians along Chestnut Street still look out over Rondout Creek.

The Brothers That Just Do Gutters Hudson Valley runs local crews out of Page Park Drive in Poughkeepsie, with Kingston and the rest of Ulster County inside our regular service area. We clean and flush gutters, repair leaking seams and loose hangers, form new runs on site, replace soft fascia and install BroGuard stainless micro-mesh. For stone houses and Victorians with big, steep roof planes, 6-inch gutters often handle a summer downpour or a fast snowmelt better than the originals did. Every estimate is free and written.

Kingston gets roughly 42 inches of rain and melted snow in a normal year (NOAA 1991 to 2020 normals at Dutchess County Airport near Poughkeepsie), and it arrives in every season. Maple, oak and sycamore leaves fill troughs in the fall, snow and freeze sit on the gutters through winter, and maple seeds and oak catkins pack the outlets in spring. On the steep streets between Uptown and the Rondout, an overflowing gutter sends water straight downhill and against foundations. Our maintenance program keeps that from happening, and the weeks before the first hard freeze are the time to start.
