Gutter installation on the Peninsula
New gutters built for Peninsula storms, trees and rooflines
From Eichlers in Sunnyvale to two-story homes in San Mateo and row houses in San Francisco, no two Peninsula roofs shed water the same way. Here is how we build a system that fits yours.
Sunnyvale averages roughly 13 to 15 inches of rain a year, and the number climbs as you head north toward San Mateo and San Francisco. Almost all of it falls between November and April, and a lot of it arrives in a few big storms. A gutter doesn’t care about the yearly total. It has to carry what falls in a single hour of a hard storm, and every inch of rain on a 2,000 square foot roof sends roughly 1,240 gallons toward it.
That is why we never hang a stock system. Before anything gets formed, a Solutionist from Eric Dodge’s local Sunnyvale team measures every run, looks at the pitch and where upper roofs empty onto lower ones, checks the fascia the gutter will hang on, and plans where each downspout will send its water. Then each run is rolled from coil on our truck, right in front of your house, cut to the exact length of your roofline.
Peninsula homes bring their own quirks. Low-slope and flat roofs drain through scuppers and short runs. Redwoods, pines and street trees fill gutters with needles and leaves. Homes near the coast in Pacifica and Daly City deal with salt air and fog that never quite dries out. A new install is the right moment to plan for all of it.
Signs your home needs new gutters, not another patch
- Water pours over the front edge in a heavy storm even right after a cleaning. That points to capacity or pitch, not debris.
- Joints on a sectional system that keep leaking after every round of sealant.
- Gutters tipping forward or separating from the roofline, with fasteners working loose.
- Fascia behind the gutter that is soft, cracked or dark with moisture, or paint and stucco stained below it.
- Puddles, erosion or a damp crawl space next to the foundation where a downspout empties.
- Steel gutters rusting through, especially on homes near the coast, or aluminum bent and patched until it no longer holds its shape.
How we size a system for Peninsula homes
We measure every home before recommending anything, but these are the setups we end up with most often from Sunnyvale to San Francisco. The final plan goes into a free written estimate.
| What we see on your house | What we usually recommend | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Single-story or modest two-story roof, moderate pitch | 5-inch K-style seamless aluminum with 2×3 downspouts | Handles a typical Peninsula storm on most homes when pitch and downspout spacing are right. |
| Steep roof, large roof areas, valleys, or a second story draining onto a first-story roof | 6-inch K-style with larger 3×4 downspouts | The bigger profile holds roughly 40 percent more water, and a 3×4 downspout drains about twice as fast as a 2×3. |
| Redwoods, pines, oaks or street trees over the roofline | Add BroGuard fine metal mesh | Needles and small leaves slip past most guards. Fine mesh keeps them out while the rain still gets in. |
| Homes near the coast in Pacifica, Daly City or western San Francisco | Aluminum or copper rather than plain steel | Salt air and constant fog are hard on steel. Aluminum and copper hold up far better there. |
| Downspouts emptying by the foundation, a patio or a neighbor’s property line | Extensions, rerouted downspouts or underground drainage | On tight Peninsula lots, where the water goes matters as much as the gutter itself. |
How install day goes
- Tear-off and haul-away.Your old gutters and downspouts come off the house and leave with us.
- Fascia inspection.We check the wood the gutter will hang on and flag anything soft so it can be replaced first. Hangers only hold in solid wood.
- Rolled out at the curb.The machine on our truck forms every run in one continuous length, cut to fit that stretch of roof.
- Sloped and fastened.Each run gets enough fall to empty fully, held tight with hidden hangers set into sound fascia.
- Water sent somewhere useful.Downspouts and extensions carry water away from the foundation, walkways and crawl space vents.
- Water test and final look.We run a hose through the system, show you how it performs and leave the site clean.

Linear footage, roof access, the condition of the existing system, and the size and material you choose all move the number. A 6 inch system costs somewhat more per foot than 5 inch, and copper sits at the top of the range. Adding BroGuard or replacing rotted fascia also changes the price. A Solutionist measures on site and leaves a written, itemized estimate, and monthly payment options are available for qualified homeowners.
Yes, and it is one of our most common jobs. Plenty of Peninsula rooflines still carry the gutters they were built with, often hung on spike and ferrule hangers that work loose over time, and those systems were never sized for the way winter storms arrive now. We measure, form new seamless runs on site and haul the old system away.
Our truck carries the gutter machine, so each run is formed in your driveway and cut to the exact length of your roofline. The crew takes down the old system, hangs the new runs, sets downspouts where the water needs to go, then flush-tests everything and walks you through it. We leave the property cleaner than we found it.
Roof type and slope come first, because they control how fast and where water runs. Steeper roofs shed water faster and need more capacity, while flatter roofs need well-placed downspouts to prevent pooling. Our climate matters too: long dry summers, then atmospheric rivers that ask the whole system to work at once. Size, profile and color are chosen for your house.
Seamless aluminum is the standard, in a wide range of baked-on colors, and we also form copper, galvanized steel and Galvalume in K-style and half-round profiles. Every option is metal, which keeps plastic off your roofline in a region that now plans for embers as well as rain. Your Solutionist matches the material to the house and the budget.
On most Peninsula homes, yes. Installing BroGuard with a new seamless system means one crew is accountable for both, and the combination carries a Limited Lifetime Warranty on the entire system. Under oak, redwood or pine, it also cuts down how often the gutters need cleaning each year.
