How long does an eavestrough installation take?

Most standard Oshawa homes are completed in a single day. Larger or complex homes may take 1.5 to 2 days. All old materials are hauled away the same day.

Should I choose 5-inch or 6-inch gutters?

5" gutters handle most standard homes. We recommend 6" for larger roofs, steep pitches, or homes prone to overflow — they carry about 50% more water and clog less.

Do gutter guards actually work?

Quality gutter guards dramatically reduce cleaning by keeping leaves, twigs, and granules out — preventing the clogs that cause overflow and ice dams. We install proven screen-style guards, not cheap foam.

Can you repair my existing gutters instead of replacing them?

Often yes — if gutters are in good shape overall we can reseal joints, re-secure sagging sections, and re-pitch. If more than 30–40% is failing, replacement is usually more cost-effective.

Should I replace the fascia at the same time?

We always inspect fascia before installing new gutters. If there's rot, we replace the wood and clad it in aluminum first — covering rot with new gutters just hides the problem.

Signs Your Eavestrough Needs Repair or Replacement

Most Oshawa homeowners don't think about their gutters until something goes wrong. Catch these warning signs early to avoid costly foundation or basement damage:

Sagging or pulling away from the fascia — fasteners are failing.
Water spilling over the edge in heavy rain — usually clogs or undersized gutters.
Visible cracks or splits in the gutter trough.
Peeling paint or stains on the fascia board — chronic overflow.
Standing water in the gutter days after rain — wrong pitch or sag.
Basement dampness near downspouts — water isn't being carried far enough away.
Mildew or erosion in landscaping directly under the roofline.
Ice buildup (icicles) on the eaves in winter — often a ventilation or gutter issue.

Why Seamless Aluminum Eavestrough?

We recommend seamless aluminum gutters for almost every Oshawa home. Unlike sectional vinyl or steel, seamless aluminum:

Has no mid-run joints — the #1 source of leaks is eliminated.
Is formed on-site to your home's exact length, up to 40+ feet without a seam.
Won't rust like steel, and won't crack like vinyl in Canadian winters.
Comes in 20+ colours to match your fascia, soffit, and siding.
Handles heavy Ontario downpours and snowmelt when properly sized (we recommend 5" or 6").

Proper Installation Matters More Than the Gutter Itself

A poorly installed premium gutter will fail faster than a correctly installed budget one. Every Oshawa Roofing eavestrough install includes:

Correct slope (~1/4" per 10 feet) toward downspouts so water never stands.
Heavy-duty hidden hangers spaced every 24" — not spikes that pull out over time.
Downspouts sized to the roof area — too few or too small causes overflow.
Downspout extensions routed 6+ feet from the foundation.
Drip edge integrated with the roof's underlayment to prevent fascia rot.
Fascia inspected and any rot replaced before the new gutter goes up.

What Does Eavestrough Installation Cost in Oshawa?

Seamless aluminum eavestrough (5"): $8 – $14 per linear foot installed
Seamless aluminum eavestrough (6" — for larger roofs): $11 – $18 per linear foot installed
