We also install seamless gutters, repair and replace damaged systems, fit micro-mesh gutter guards, and fix downspouts that dump water against your foundation.

Lowcountry gutters take a beating from summer thunderstorms, pine straw, live oak leaves and salt air, and most problems start small. These are the ones we fix, with a link to each service if you want the details.
June, July and August bring roughly 17 inches of rain to Beaufort MCAS, by NOAA's 1991 to 2020 climate normals. By then, spring pollen, pine needles and live oak leaves have often packed into the gutters. Once a trough or downspout clogs, water spills over the front edge, splashes the siding and lands along your foundation. A thorough cleaning clears the troughs and flushes the downspouts so summer storms drain the way they should.
More on gutter cleaningWater is heavy. The USGS puts it at about 62.4 pounds per cubic foot, and a gutter packed with wet leaves holds water long after the rain stops. That extra weight works hangers loose, bends sections out of pitch and pulls the gutter away from the fascia. A sagging run holds even more water, so the problem feeds itself. We reset the slope, re-secure or replace hangers, and fix the boards behind them when needed.
More on gutter repairNOAA's normals count roughly 13 days each year when Beaufort MCAS logs an inch of rain or more. Those downpours find every weak joint. Sectional gutters depend on sealant at each seam and corner, and that sealant ages. Drips at the corners, dirty streaks on the siding and a puddle under one spot are the clues. We reseal failing joints, and seamless gutters remove most of the seams in the first place.
More on seamless guttersThe National Hurricane Center's Atlantic season runs from June 1 to November 30, with the peak around September 10. Tropical storms and ordinary summer squalls both bring down limbs, and one falling branch can crush a gutter or tear it off the house. After a storm, look for kinks, loose downspouts and sections hanging at an angle. We repair what can be saved and replace runs too bent to hold a proper slope.
More on gutter replacementThe Insurance Information Institute reports that about 1 in 60 insured homes has a water damage or freezing claim each year. Gutters that overflow, leak behind the back edge or pull away from the house send water straight into fascia boards and soffits. The wood softens, paint peels, and soft boards stop holding gutter screws. We fix the gutter problem along with the damaged wood, so new boards do not rot the same way.
More on gutter repairShort or missing downspout extensions dump roof water at the foundation, washing out mulch beds and leaving puddles that linger. Gutters that hold water do the same thing overhead. The CDC notes that mosquitoes need only a small amount of water to lay eggs, and an egg can become an adult in 7 to 10 days. Extending downspouts and fixing low spots in the gutter keeps water moving away from your house.
More on downspoutsWhy A&A
We have spent more than 20 years cleaning, repairing and installing gutters in the Lowcountry. That time teaches things a manual can't: how fast live oak leaves pack a gutter in spring, where pine needles pile up in a roof valley, and which homes near the marsh corrode first. It also means we spot the loose hanger, the backward pitch or the soft fascia board during a routine cleaning, before it becomes a bigger repair.
A&A is a local, owner-run company, and the owner is on site for every job. The person who gave you the estimate is the person making sure the work matches it. You are not handed off to a crew you have never met, and if you have a question on the day, you can ask the person who answers for the result.

Cleaning is the gutter job homeowners most often try themselves, and ladders are a real hazard. A Nationwide Children's Hospital study of Consumer Product Safety Commission injury data counted an average of 136,000 ladder injuries treated in U.S. emergency rooms each year from 1990 to 2005, and 97% of cases with a known location happened at homes, farms and other non-work settings. We clear gutters by hand, flush every downspout, and look over hangers, seams and fascia while we are up there, so small problems surface before the next storm.
More on gutter cleaningNOAA's 1991 to 2020 normals put Beaufort MCAS at about 45 inches of rain a year. Gutter guards have to let all of that through while keeping out pine needles, oak leaves and the grit that washes off shingles. We install micro-mesh guards, which cover the gutter with a fine screen that sheds debris and passes water. Guards cut down on how often your gutters need cleaning, though mesh still needs an occasional rinse after heavy pollen season and the spring oak drop.
More on gutter guardsNew gutters are sized to your roof and run in long seamless lengths, which means fewer joints to leak. Alongside standard seamless gutters, we install copper and Galvalume. InterNACHI rates copper gutters for 50+ years, and the GalvInfo Center reports that Galvalume's coating outlasts galvanized steel by two to four times. We help you choose the metal, profile, size and downspout layout that suit your house and your distance from salt water, and the owner is on site for the install.
More on gutter installationThe Insurance Information Institute puts the average homeowners claim for water damage or freezing at about $15,400 for 2019 to 2023. A loose hanger, a leaking corner or a downspout knocked off by a mower costs far less to fix than the rot it can cause. Any make or model is fair game: we reseal seams and end caps, rehang sagging runs, reset pitch, replace damaged sections and reattach downspouts. If a repair will not hold, we will tell you, and explain what replacement involves.
More on gutter repairInterNACHI estimates that aluminum gutters, downspouts, soffit and fascia last 20 to 40+ years, and galvanized steel gutters about 20. Replacement makes sense when sections are rusted through, seams leak faster than they can be sealed, or the system was undersized from the start. We take the old gutters down, repair the fascia they expose, and put up a new system sized for Lowcountry downpours. It is also the moment to rethink downspout placement and add guards if your lot is heavily wooded.
More on gutter replacementUSGS figures put a one-inch rain at 27,154 gallons per acre, which works out to about 623 gallons coming off every 1,000 square feet of roof. All of it leaves through your downspouts. We add downspouts where long runs need more outlets, upsize undersized ones, clear clogged elbows and extend discharge away from foundations, walkways and planting beds. A downspout that empties beside the foundation undoes the work of the whole system. Copper and Galvalume downspouts are available to match those gutters.

FAQ
Most Bluffton homes need gutter cleaning at least twice a year: once in late spring, after live oaks drop their old leaves and pollen season ends, and once in late fall. Homes under heavy pine or oak canopy often need a third cleaning. A cleaning before hurricane season starts on June 1 helps your gutters handle heavy storm rain.

Yes. A&A Island Services, LLC is licensed and insured, and we are a BBB Accredited Business with an A+ rating. Gutter work means ladders, rooflines and heights, so always confirm that any company working on your home carries insurance. We are happy to talk through our coverage when you call.
Yes. We install micro-mesh gutter guards, which keep out pine needles, oak leaves and most roof grit while letting rain through. Guards cut down on how often gutters need cleaning, but in a heavily wooded yard they still need an occasional rinse. We will tell you honestly whether guards make sense for your home.
If the problem is a few leaking seams, one sagging section or a loose downspout, a repair is usually the better value. Replacement makes more sense when gutters are rusted through, badly undersized, pulling away along most of the house, or failing in many places at once. We will tell you which one your home actually needs.
Yes. Along with seamless aluminum gutters, we install and repair copper and Galvalume gutters. Copper suits historic and high-end homes and develops a natural patina over time. Galvalume is a coated steel that is stronger than aluminum and pairs well with metal roofs. We will help you choose the right material for your home and budget.
