Saugerties Gutter Solutionists

Gutters for a river village and the bluestone town around it

Saugerties sits on the west bank of the Hudson where Esopus Creek meets the river. The name traces to the Dutch “Zagertje,” little sawyer, after a 1650s sawmill on the Sawyer’s Kill. Henry Barclay put the creek to work in 1828 with an iron works and a paper mill, and the village incorporated as Ulster in 1831 before taking the Saugerties name in 1855. Downtown is the Main and Partition Streets Historic District, lined with two and three story brick blocks, and the 1727 Dubois-Kierstede Stone House still stands on Main Street. Out in the town, bluestone was once quarried west of the village and shipped from Glasco and Malden, and the 1869 Saugerties Lighthouse still stands where the creek reaches the Hudson.

The Brothers That Just Do Gutters Hudson Valley runs local crews out of Page Park Drive in Poughkeepsie, and Saugerties is part of our regular Ulster County route. That means hand cleaning, resealed seams, reset hangers, new runs formed in the driveway, fresh fascia where the old boards are soft, and BroGuard stainless micro-mesh. For tall village houses and old farmhouses with steep roofs that shed water fast, 6-inch gutters carry the load from a summer storm or a March thaw without spilling over the front. Estimates are always free and in writing.

Saugerties averages about 42 inches of rain and melted snow a year (NOAA 1991 to 2020 normals at Dutchess County Airport near Poughkeepsie), and it comes in all four seasons. Big maples drop leaves on roofs along the older village streets, and out in the town, wooded lots toward Blue Mountain and West Saugerties add oak leaves and pine needles. Near the river and Esopus Creek, a downspout that empties against an old stone or brick foundation keeps that wall wet all season. Our maintenance program clears the troughs after the leaves are down and again in spring, ahead of the freeze and the thaw.
