Gutter Installation in Ventnor City, NJ

Seamless Gutter Installation in Ventnor

The old beach-block houses in Ventnor have long eaves, dormers and porch roofs, so we form seamless aluminum on site to the full length of each run and keep the profile low where it meets original trim. In Ventnor Heights we hang on hidden hangers screwed into the fascia, because a spiked gutter does not survive a nor'easter across the bay, and we run downspouts with extensions toward the street on the low lagoon lots.

Gutter Repair in Ventnor

After a storm the Ventnor calls are predictable: a downspout torn off at the elbow on the beach side, a run lifted off its hangers along the bay in the Heights, a corner dripping because salt ate the sealant. We re-hang, reseal with a sealant that holds in salt air, replace single damaged sections on gutters that are otherwise sound, and reset the pitch. Most Ventnor repairs can be done while you are off the island. More on gutter repair.

Gutter Guards & Leaf Protection in Ventnor

The sycamores and oaks over the St. Leonard's Tract and the street trees in Ventnor Heights drop leaves in November and seeds in spring, and on the beach blocks sand and shingle grit blow into every open gutter. A fine-mesh guard turns all of it away and lets the rain through, so the trough never holds the wet, salty mat that corrodes it from the inside. We fit guards to existing gutters that are still solid. More on gutter guards.

Gutter Cleaning in Ventnor

Even on the beach blocks a Ventnor gutter needs a spring and fall cleaning, and under the trees in the Heights and the Tract it needs more. We clean by hand, flush each downspout from the top, confirm the water drains away from the house on these flat lots, and check hangers, seams and fascia while we are up. For seasonal owners we schedule the cleaning before you arrive or after you close up, and send photos either way. More on gutter cleaning.

Fascia & Soffit Repair in Ventnor

Salt air and an overflowing gutter will take wood fascia in a few seasons, and the big old houses in Ventnor have a lot of wood trim at the roof edge. Peeling paint, dark streaks under the gutter and a run pulling away at one end mean the board is soft. We replace the rotted fascia and soffit, match the trim profile on the older homes, wrap the new wood in aluminum, and rehang the gutters on a solid edge. See our fascia and soffit repair page for the full picture.
