What the customer needed
The customer wanted drainage coverage around the home to help protect the foundation and keep concentrated roof water from falling into the established garden areas beside the brick walls.
What shaped the plan
The large single-story property includes light-brick walls, planted garden beds, a detached garage, and a paved connection between the two buildings. The roof has a 4-on-12 pitch, and mature trees surround portions of the site.
The system and the reasoning
Mac recommended light cream 6-inch seamless gutters with 3-by-4 downspouts for the house and detached garage, plus Smart Flow guards for the tree-covered setting.
What dcGutterPRO completed
dcGutterPRO installed light cream 6-inch seamless aluminum gutters around the home and detached garage, added matching 3-by-4 downspouts at the roofline corners, and fitted Smart Flow guards across the gutter runs.
How the finished system came together
The finished light cream system follows the brick, porch, and detached-garage rooflines in a color that coordinates with the fascia. Matching downspouts provide defined discharge routes beside the driveway, garden beds, and garage, while Smart Flow guards complete the covered gutter runs.
