Before & After Photos

It’s no secret that a home without gutters can lead to expensive issues. Without gutters, water can pool and rot a home’s fascia board, creating gaps and easy access for small rodents to make their way in and causing problems. Water coming off the roof will erode the soil around the home, ruining anything that is planted and potentially damaging the foundation, leading to water intrusion into the basement or crawl space. This Westbrook, ME, homeowner was aware of these issues and wanted to avoid the headache and expensive repair costs, so they booked a free estimate with Gutter Shutter by TC Hafford Basement Systems. System Design Specialist Brian Donnelly met with the homeowner and worked with them to design a Gutter Shutter system, specific to their home.

Gutter Shutter's unique design is capable of catching water off the roof without catching debris such as leaves and pine needles, keeping the gutter clog-free and preventing the homeowner from ever having to climb a ladder. Gutter Shutter features a seamless, aluminum construction that is formed and cut on site to ensure a perfect fit every time, whether the gutter needs to be two feet or 100 feet long. The integrated shutter allows for water to easily flow into the gutter, but debris and critters are kept out. Gutter Shutter's tough design means that it can hold up against the tough Maine winters. Water is handled better than normal gutters, making it harder for icicles to form, keeping the homeowner safer. Gutter Shutter comes in many different colors, allowing the homeowner to have options to choose from so the gutter will blend seamlessly into their home. Now the homeowner is protected from the rain, and they can enjoy their home without having to be concerned about damage to their foundation or the rest of the home.

Without gutters, rain erodes away the soil next to your foundation. This gives the water the ability to seep into your foundation, leaving it vulnerable to cracking during freezing temperatures. A damaged foundation can also lead to flooding or weaken the strength of the foundation, which can lead to further problems in your home.

When you go with the strongest gutter system in the world, you'll never worry about it sagging or pulling away from your home. Gutter Shutter's gutter guard system is guaranteed to never sag, clog, or pull away from your home, ensuring a fully functional gutter system forever. This unique and reinforced all-in-one system boasts .032 gauge aluminum that proves its quality will last a lifetime and protect your foundation from water intrusion and structural damages.

Since we cut gutters on site, Gutter Shutter by TC Hafford can fulfill all your gutter needs, whether you need a 5-foot gutter or a 100-foot gutter.

Without gutters, water from your roof can cause damage around your home and lead to flooding. With Gutter Shutter, you get the benefit of an oversized 6-inch gutter, with the added benefit of having a cover so you never need to climb a ladder and clean the gutter out.

Gutters are necessary for protecting your home from a multitude of issues that could potentially damage not only the land around your home but the health of your foundation as well. Gutters protect your foundation by keeping water from pooling, leading to cracks and the weakening of the structural integrity of your foundation. Without gutters, your roof is susceptible to ice damage, and any landscaping around your home will be ruined.

System Design Specialist Jeff Schuhmacher met the homeowner at their home, and together they designed a gutter system that met the needs of the homeowner and the home.
