Most of our Desert Shores work falls into two buckets, and they often overlap. The first is straightforward replacement: a home from the late 1980s or 1990s whose original sectional gutters have finally given out, where we pull the old runs and form new seamless .032 aluminum on site, color-matched to the trim. The second is the lakefront detail — on homes that back onto Lake Jacqueline, Lake Sarah, Lake Maddison, or Lake Lindsey, we pay close attention to where the water goes, placing downspouts and leaderheads so runoff is carried out and away rather than pooling near the patio or the dock. Because the lakes keep the canopy mature, we frequently pair the new runs with micro-mesh guards to keep leaf litter and debris from clogging them. The result is a system that handles a monsoon burst, sheds the year-round debris a lake community throws at it, and looks like it belongs on the house.
Original Gutters That Are Aging Out
Most of Desert Shores dates to the late 1980s and 1990s, so a lot of homes still carry their original sectional gutters. Three decades of desert sun makes the seams brittle, and they leak, sag, and separate from the fascia. Seamless .032 replacement fixes the leaks and the look in a single pass on most homes.
