Gutter Services Across the Chicago Area.
Gutters do one job: move water off your roof and away from your foundation. We install, clean, and repair gutters across Chicago and the surrounding suburbs, as part of our full exterior offering alongside roofing and siding.
01 / Why Gutters Matter
One Job: Move Water Away From the House.
Gutters do one job: move water off your roof and away from your foundation. When they’re clogged, damaged, or installed incorrectly, that job doesn’t get done.
Water backs up under the roofline, overflows against the foundation, pools around the base of the house, and causes the kind of slow, cumulative damage that shows up as basement moisture, rotted fascia, and landscaping erosion before most homeowners connect it back to the gutters.
RX Roofing & Construction handles gutter installation, cleaning, and repair throughout the Chicago area. Gutter work is part of our full exterior offering alongside roofing and siding.
Basement Moisture
When water pools against the foundation, it finds its way inside as damp walls and floors below grade.
Rotted Fascia
Water backing up under the roofline soaks into the fascia board and trim, and over time the wood rots.
Landscaping Erosion
Overflow that dumps straight down digs out beds, washes away mulch, and cuts channels around the base of the house.
02 / Gutter Installation
Seamless Gutters, Formed On-Site.
Properly sized and correctly pitched gutters direct runoff away from the home effectively. Seamless gutters, formed on-site from a continuous piece of material, eliminate the seam joints where sectional gutters fail and leak over time.
We install seamless gutters and downspouts on new construction and as replacements on existing homes throughout the area. Correct sizing, correct pitch, and a continuous run are what keep the water moving the way it should.
- Seamless gutters formed on-site
- Correct sizing and pitch for real runoff
- Downspouts that move water clear of the foundation
- New construction and replacement on existing homes
03 / Gutter Cleaning
Gutters That Can't Drain Don't Protect Anything.
Gutters that aren’t cleared of debris can’t drain properly. Leaves, shingle granules, and organic material accumulate in the trough, block the downspout openings, and cause water to overflow or back up under the roofline. In winter, clogged gutters contribute to ice formation along the roof edge.
We recommend cleaning gutters at least once a year, ideally in the fall after the leaves have come down, and again in spring if significant debris has accumulated.
When to Clean
At least once a year. Fall is the main one, after the leaves are down. A second cleaning in spring makes sense if a lot of debris has built up over winter.
What Clogs Them
Leaves, shingle granules, and other organic material settle in the trough and block the downspout openings, so water overflows or backs up under the roofline.
04 / Gutter Repair
Fix the Problem Before It Spreads.
Gutters that sag, pull away from the fascia, leak at joints, or have sections damaged by impact or storm activity need repair before they cause further problems.
01
Replace Damaged Sections
We repair and replace sections on existing gutter systems so the run drains the way it’s supposed to again.
02
Reattach to the Fascia
We reattach gutters that have separated from the fascia and pulled away from the roofline.
03
Fix Downspout Connections
We fix downspout connections that have come loose or are directing water where it shouldn’t go.
When a system is too far gone to patch, we’ll tell you straight when replacement makes more sense than another repair.
05 / Storm Damage to Gutters
Storms Hit Gutters Too.
Hail dents gutters and downspouts. Wind tears sections away from the roofline. Heavy debris from storms can overload and damage gutters that were in good condition before the event.
When storm damage is the cause, your homeowners insurance policy may cover the repair or replacement as part of a broader storm claim. We inspect gutters as part of our full post-storm assessment and document damage alongside any roof or siding damage from the same event.
- Hail dents and wind separation inspected
- Documented alongside roof and siding damage
- May be covered as part of a broader storm claim
06 / One Schedule
Gutter Work That Lines Up With the Rest.
Gutter work often runs alongside roofing and siding projects. When we’re replacing a roof or re-siding a home, gutters are frequently inspected, cleaned, or replaced as part of the same project.
Coordinating them together keeps the job site organized and avoids scheduling a second crew after the primary work is done. One contractor handles the full exterior, so the gutters are not an afterthought once the bigger work wraps up.
Residential Roofing
Full replacements, repairs, and post-storm inspections, with gutters checked and handled on the same schedule.
Siding
Vinyl, fiber cement, and brick siding, matched and replaced as part of a full exterior project alongside your gutters.
07 / Common Questions
Gutter Questions We Hear a Lot.
At least once a year. Fall is the main cleaning, after the leaves have come down. If a lot of debris builds up over winter, a second cleaning in spring is a good idea. Gutters that aren’t cleared can’t drain, and in winter clogged gutters contribute to ice forming along the roof edge.
Seamless gutters are formed on-site from one continuous piece of material, so there are no seam joints running along the gutter. Sectional gutters fail and leak over time right at those joints. With a seamless run, you remove the most common spot where gutters start to leak.
Usually, yes. We reattach gutters that have separated from the fascia and pulled away from the roofline, replace damaged sections, and fix downspout connections that have come loose. If the system is too far gone to patch, we’ll tell you straight when replacement makes more sense than another repair.
When the damage was caused by a storm, your homeowners policy may cover the repair or replacement as part of a broader storm claim. We inspect gutters during our full post-storm assessment and document the damage alongside any roof or siding damage from the same event, which is what the claim is built on.
Yes, and that’s often the smart way to do it. When we’re replacing a roof or re-siding a home, gutters are frequently inspected, cleaned, or replaced as part of the same project. Doing it together keeps the job site organized and saves you from scheduling a second crew later.
